The current Indy 10 snapshot is 10.1.5. You should consider upgrading.

That will cause the server to eat up CPU cycles. The OnExecute event
handler needs to perform a yielding operation. If you don't want it to
access the socket (what is the point of having a server that does nothing?)
then at least make a call to Sleep().

What happens if you set that at runtime instead of at design-time?

What does the actual code look like? In my copy, line 348 is a call to
TIdThread.HandleRunException() inside of an exception handler, which does
nothing.

Indy 10 doesn't use the FileCtrl unit anymore. You probably still have
older Indy files on your machine that you did not remove.

That is a Borland problem, not an Indy problem. Line 1 of IdSSLOpenSSL.pas
is certainly not more than 1024 characters long. In fact, line 1 is only 1
character long.
