OpenSSL Libraries Not Found

[manofwar95]

I was trying to compile MaNGOS today, and upon configuring it I had an error, the OpenSSL Libraries could not be found

| CMake Error at cmake/FindOpenSSL.cmake:104 (message):

| Could not find OpenSSL libraries! Please install the library before

| continuing

| Call Stack (most recent call first):

| CMakeLists.txt:205 (find_package)

But I do have the OpenSSL Libraries installed, when I do "apt-get install openssl" it tells me I have them and that there is nothing to be installed/done.

you can pass the values to cmake if it doesn't find them:

cmake -DOPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR=/path/to/openssl/include/dir -DOPENSSL_LIBRARIES=/path/to/openssl/lib/dir

Or you can edit FindOpenSSL.cmake so that it searches in the proper location.

when I run where is openssl it displays the following, which one should I point to?

system-xenonproject:~# whereis openssl

openssl: /usr/bin/openssl /usr/share/man/man1/openssl.1ssl.gz

I downloaded OpenSSL from their website, configured and installed it but the same directories appeared /usr/bin/openssl is the executable not the libs/directory.

I believe faramir was using the path he gave as merely an example.

Just replace his path with the path indicated by your Ubuntu installation.

While you're at it, get a real Linux.

...just kidding. :lol:

My sig is outdated, I am using debian now, also...

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

libcurl4-openssl-dev: Depends: libcurl3 (= 7.18.2-8lenny4) but 7.18.2-8lenny5 is to be installed

Depends: libssl-dev but it is not going to be installed

[faramir118]

libssl-dev needs to be installed

[manofwar95]

libssl-dev needs to be installed

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

libssl-dev: Depends: libssl0.9.8 (= 0.9.8g-15+lenny13) but 0.9.8g-15+lenny14 is to be installed

@manofwar95: First I'd get rid of your ssl installation and afterwards install libssl and libssl-dev.

libssl-dev: Depends: libssl0.9.8 (= 0.9.8g-15+lenny13) but 0.9.8g-15+lenny14 is to be installed

Because this ^^^ is strange. Do you run lenny or did you install an old libssl? Debian is at 0.9.8o.

system-xenonproject:~# cat /etc/issue

Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 \\n \\l

I could just apt-get remove openssl, and try to update apt? Then try again. You just said that.. nvm >_<

HOWEVER:

Package libssl is not available, but is referred to by another package.

This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or

is only available from another source

E: Package libssl has no installation candidate

I think my best bet may to just install openSSL from the source code which I have tried but it didn't do anything, I ran it's "./configure" script, ran "make" and did "make install" but can't find any libraries or even tell that it did anything.

Well when I installed git-core I noticed it installed a package called "openssl" I think that package and "libssl" were conflicting, either way once I removed all "SSL's" and reinstalled them the problem was resolved.
