Thread: Installed OpenSSL but still cannot install PostgreSQL
I have installed openssl-0.9.7a_2 from the ports collection without a glitch. I'm new to this and don't know if simply doingmake, make install and make clean is all that is required for getting openssl properly installed. It shows up listedin /var/db/pkg in my FreeBSD 4.6 system. However, when I try to make postgresql7 from the ports collection I'm told: This port requires the OpenSSL library, which is part of the FreeBSD crypto distribution but not installed on your machine. Not sure what to do next. Tamir

Aha. This seems to be a fault in /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk around line 930
.if defined(USE_OPENSSL)
.if ${OSVERSION} >= 400014
.if !exists(/usr/lib/libcrypto.so)

You may try to play with symlinks, but I suppose more natural way is to upgrade
your system to at least 4.6 security branch and install OpenSSL from base
system.
Or, you can simply make postgresql port without SSL support:
cd /usr/ports/databases/postgresql7
make WITHOUT_SSL=yes

The last note: you can also re-install openssl port (pkg_delete previous
installation first) within base:
cd /usr/ports/security/openssl
make OPENSSL_OVERWRITE_BASE=yes
make install

After following your instructions regarding the deinstallation of the openssl package and then reinstalling it with
makeOPENSSL_OVERWRITE_BASE=yes, I still get the same message when executing make in the
/usr/ports/databases/postgresql7directory that tells me I need to first install openssl.
Here's the output of ldconfig -r | grep crypt:
1:-lcrypt.2 => /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.2
110:-lcrypto.2 => /usr/local/lib/libcrypto.so.2
111:-lcrypto.3 => /usr/local/lib/libcrypto.so.3
117:-lmcrypt.8 => /usr/local/lib/libmcrypt.so.8
I'm sure there's a solution to using postgresql 7.3.2 with openssl. I just don't have it.

I just don't have it. Well, thanks for re-checking with ldconfig we can see our OPENSSL_OVERWRITE_BASE did not help. Something is broken during the upgrade. Can you check whether openssl libraries reside only in /usr/local/lib and not in /usr/lib ? BTW, you can look at /var/bd/pkg/<pkgname-version>/+CONTENTS to see where are the files installed by port reside. also, `pkg_info -W /path/to/the/file' is useful to debug. About your problem: contemporary port building system checks for OpenSSL _only_ in base system directories, particularly /usr/lib/libcrypto.so So, possibly, quick hack like 'ln -s /usr/local/lib/libcrypto.so /usr/lib' may help you. Anyway, please consider upgrading to 4.8 which should be out of door this week.

I can't believe it. After two days of scraping around for why it isn't working and one command later it works! It's amazing what knowledge will do for a person's outlook on life. The above ln command worked and postgresql 7.3.2 is currently installing. > Anyway, please consider upgrading to 4.8 which should be out > of door this week. This is not the mail list for such a question but since you bring it up, can you point me to a concise documented procedurefor upgrading my 4.6 to 4.7 or 4.8? If you prefer, you can post it to freebsd-questions where I will eagerly await your response. Thanks again and again.
