Why am I getting errors compiling NGINX for Windows?
Question
I'm trying to compile NGINX with the RTMP module for Windows but I keep getting errors. The guide I've been following is http://nginx.org/en/docs/howto_build_on_win32.html
I have the following software installed:
- MSYS2
- Strawberry Perl (64-bit)
- Visual Studio 2022 (community edition) + Desktop Development with C++ workload
After installing MSYS2 I followed their post-installation instructions found here
pacman -Syu
pacman -Su
pacman -S --needed base-devel mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain
I have set the following System environment variables set for PATH
C:\Strawberry\c\bin
C:\Strawberry\perl\site\bin
C:\Strawberry\perl\bin
C:\msys64\mingw64\bin
I've downloaded the NGINX source code into a directory called 'nginx' on the 'C:' drive. Inside this directory I've then downloaded and extracted the following packages into the directories 'objs/lib'.
- zlib-1.2.11
- pcre2-10.39
- openssl-1.1.1m
- nginx-rtmp-module-1.2.2
This creates the following directory structure
nginx
objs
lib
zlib-1.2.11
pcre2-10.39
openssl-1.1.1m
nginx-rtmp-module-1.2.2
I have set Visual C environment by running 'vcvarsall.bat' script from Visual C directory
PS C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build> .\vcvarsall.bat amd64

I am trying to do the same thing. I managed to get the build further along, but still ran into an issue with OpenSSL not building from the NGINX Makefile, but did get OpenSSL to build for x64 seperately using nmake. Here's my steps below:
1. I checked out the following three repositories from their Git repos:
(starting at the nginx base folder)
mkdir objs
cd objs
mkdir lib
cd lib
git clone git clone https://github.com/openssl/openssl.git
(renamed base folder to 'openssl')
git clone https://github.com/PCRE2Project/pcre2.git
(generates pcre2-10.40 folder)
git clone https://github.com/madler/zlib.git
(generates zip-1.2.13 folder)
2. Change to the openssl folder and setup the environment variables for output as discussed in the NOTES-WINDOWS.md file in the base folder:
set PREFIX=C:\Program Files\OpenSSL
set OPENSSLDIR=C:\Program Files\Common Files\SSL
set Platform=x64
set INCLUDE="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.34.31933\include;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.34.31933\ATLMFC\include;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Auxiliary\VS\include;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\include\10.0.22621.0\ucrt;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\include\10.0.22621.0\um;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\include\10.0.22621.0\shared;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\include\10.0.22621.0\winrt;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\include\10.0.22621.0\cppwinrt;
