#339: ExternalLibraries/OpenSSL does not compile in 64-bit mode on Mac OS ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ Reporter: hinder | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: ExternalLibraries/OpenSSL ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
Comment (by hinder):
A workaround is to set
OPENSSL_DIR = /usr
in your optionlist. It seems that the library and headers are installed on Mac OS (possibly as part of the developer tools which are needed anyway to compile). Actually, the OpenSSL.sh script should look there first by default if OPENSSL_DIR is unset. It fails to find the library because it looks for a file called libssl.a when it should be looking for libssl.dylib.
