Would you please explain me why I have to go two level back even though code is in my present working directory?
Because the path is relative to the
link's folder, not the
current one. If the link you're creating is buried two folders deep, the base path you're trying to reach from it is two folders back out.
You could just use /absolute/paths to avoid all that doublethink. In fact, that's probably a better idea now that I think about it.

err_get_next_error_library
ERR_load_strings(3) OpenSSL ERR_load_strings(3)
NAME
ERR_load_strings, ERR_PACK, ERR_get_next_error_library - load arbitrary error strings
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/err.h>
void ERR_load_strings(int lib, ERR_STRING_DATA str[]);
int ERR_get_next_error_library(void);
unsigned long ERR_PACK(int lib, int func, int reason);
DESCRIPTION
ERR_load_strings() registers error strings for library number lib.
str is an array of error string data:
typedef struct ERR_string_data_st
{
unsigned long error;
char *string;
} ERR_STRING_DATA;
The error code is generated from the library number and a function and reason code: error = ERR_PACK(lib, func, reason). ERR_PACK() is a
macro.
The last entry in the array is {0,0}.
ERR_get_next_error_library() can be used to assign library numbers to user libraries at runtime.
RETURN VALUE
ERR_load_strings() returns no value. ERR_PACK() return the error code. ERR_get_next_error_library() returns a new library number.
SEE ALSO
err(3), ERR_load_strings(3)
HISTORY
ERR_load_error_strings() and ERR_PACK() are available in all versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL. ERR_get_next_error_library() was added in
SSLeay 0.9.0.
