cUrl + Openssl

Padawan.AVT · 07-14-2009, 08:16 AM

I'm having some tricky situation - somehow curl cannot see openssl libs

Firstly I've compiled OpenSSL as below:

Code:

./Configure zlib --prefix=/data/pandora/local --openssldir=/data/pandora/local/openssl solaris64-sparcv9-gcc && make && make install

(yeah, on Solaris, but this is not the cause because I'm using GNU gcc )

then when compiling cUrl, it cannot locate OpenSSL

Code:

./configure  --enable-http --prefix=/data/pandora/local --with-ssl=/data/pandora/local

it doesn't complain for missing SSL libraries (cause it founds them), I even pass through stage
config.status: creating packages/Linux/RPM/curl-ssl.spec

but in the end I still get no SSL support:

Code:

 SSL support:     no      (--with-ssl / --with-gnutls)

Why?

Try this
./configure --enable-http --prefix=/data/pandora/local --with-ssl=/data/pandora/local/openssl

Nah, there was stupid ./Configure script (yeah, even it's name starts from capital letter) for OpenSSL that required very explicit stating that OpenSSL should be build with shader libraries.

Hate this! I've spent a whole day considering that shared is turned on by default as on all the other source packages.

cd openssl-0.9.8k
./Configure ...shared...bla-bla-bla...
