OpenSSL error

[rustbomber]

I use x86_64-unknown-linux-musl to cross build for linux, It worked well before, and suddenly reported this error one day

error: failed to run custom build command for `openssl-sys v0.9.60`

Caused by:
  process didn't exit successfully: `/target/debug/build/openssl-sys-db18d493257de4f7/build-script-main` (exit code: 101)

  Could not find directory of OpenSSL installation, and this `-sys` crate cannot
  proceed without this knowledge. If OpenSSL is installed and this crate had
  trouble finding it,  you can set the `OPENSSL_DIR` environment variable for the
  compilation process.

  Make sure you also have the development packages of openssl installed.
  For example, `libssl-dev` on Ubuntu or `openssl-devel` on Fedora.

  If you're in a situation where you think the directory *should* be found
  automatically, please open a bug at https://github.com/sfackler/rust-openssl
  and include information about your system as well as this message.

@akaylh Did you find a fix to this issue?

@akaylh Did you find a fix to this issue?

no, I can not find reason.

[kangalio]

You could reopen this issue then, since the problem still persists.

I'm also facing the same issue

[andrewbanchich]

This is happening because OpenSSL was removed from the Docker container.

There are a couple ways to fix this. The easiest, and my preferred, is to use Rustls instead of OpenSSL. It's common for dependencies which use OpenSSL by default to provide a way for you to tell them to use Rustls instead via feature flags.

Example: reqwest = { version = "0.10.8", default-features = false, features = ["rustls-tls"] }

You can look through your Cargo.lock to find which dependencies are using OpenSSL, then configure them to use Rustls instead. Once that's done, everything should build again.

The alternative is more complicated: configure a custom Docker image based on the one used by cross, but also install OpenSSL.

Install musl toolchains:
sudo apt install musl-dev musl-tools
And add this to your Cargo.toml dependencies:
openssl-sys = { version = "0.9", features = ['vendored'] }

I have the same issue, any update ?

[andrewbanchich]

@Mohsen7s see my above comment

[andrewbanchich]

@adamgreig I think this issue can be closed.

[Mohsen7s]

@andrewbanchich I'm not looking for tricky hacks. This has to be fixed internally not forcing developers to change code
