[issue34028] Python 3.7.0 wont compile with SSL Support 1.1.0 > alledged missing X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host() support
Malek Ghantous added the comment: I'm having a similar problem. I'm trying to compile on Red Hat 6.9 using a locally installed OpenSSL library. I've tried everything here (I think) and I still get this error: checking for openssl/ssl.h in /home/mf/dp/mpma/ghantousm/apptron/local/... yes checking whether compiling and linking against OpenSSL works... no checking for --with-ssl-default-suites... python I've ensured the libssl.* files are all present or linked to in /home/mf/dp/mpma/ghantousm/apptron/local/lib and .../lib64, the include files are present, the OpenSSL build seemed fine, and I compiled version 1.1.1d of openssl. I've tried setting LDFLAGS and rpath and still no dice; the setup.py module doesn't seem to have any hard-coded paths so I'm really at a loss to understand what is wrong. I've tried both versions 3.8.0 and 3.7.3 of python with the --with-openssl=/home/mf/dp/mpma/ghantousm/apptron/local option set, and version 3.6.8 (which doesn't accept any ssl related options). This bug seems to have been preserved for a number of versions, so I'd like to help squash it if I can, but not sure where to go to from here. I notice that some of the reports here suggest that they've had success with work-arounds, but as I stated none of them seem to work for me and I'm unable to compile with ssl support. -- nosy: +malektronic type: -> compile error versions: +Python 3.8 -Python 3.7 ___ Python tracker <https://bugs.python.org/issue34028> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Malek Ghantous added the comment: Thanks for your responses. Yum is not an option as I'm on a machine without root privileges. OK, so I have to be a bit contrite here, I tried everything you suggested, but in the end the solution goes back to this comment, and the LDFLAGS environment variable: https://bugs.python.org/issue34028?@ok_message=msg%20355232%20cr%C3%A9%C3%A9%0Aissue%2034028%20message_count%2C%20type%2C%20versions%2C%20curieux%2C%20nosy_count%2C%20messages%20modifi%C3%A9%28s%29%20avec%20succ%C3%A8s&@template=item#msg339455 I think I was using the wrong compiler when I tried that solution the first time. So I'm sorry about that. But while we're here, I may as well ask if there isn't another way to do this, without having recourse to the environment variable. Is there a way to specify these flags using just the configure script? Based on something I read somewhere on the web, I generally prefer to steer clear of setting environment variables, though perhaps I needn't be so reluctant. Incidentally, the environment variables OPENSSL_LDFLAGS etc as suggested in config.log (thanks for that, I wouldn't have thought to look there) do not appear to work. -- ___ Python tracker <https://bugs.python.org/issue34028> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
