Thread: [GENERAL] configure can't find libcrypto on MacOS Sierra for pg 9.6.2
Hello, I am trying to build pg 9.6.2 on my MacOS Sierra but
configure is being balky
configure:9494: checking for CRYPTO_new_ex_data in -lcrypto
configure:9519: gcc -o conftest -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wendif-labels
-Wmissing-for
mat-attribute -Wformat-security -fno-strict-aliasing -fwrapv -Wno-unused-command-line-argument -O2 conftest.c
-lcrypto -lz -ledi
t -lm >&5
ld: library not found for -lcrypto
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
configure:9519: $? = 1
but libcrypto is present:
eagle:Desktop postgres$ ls -al /usr/lib/libcrypto*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 2043536 Dec 10 04:53 /usr/lib/libcrypto.0.9.7.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 2681408 Dec 10 04:53 /usr/lib/libcrypto.0.9.8.dylib
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 4209728 Dec 10 04:53 /usr/lib/libcrypto.35.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 21 Sep 24 13:20 /usr/lib/libcrypto.dylib -> libcrypto.0.9.8.dylib
The config.log file for 9.3.2 passes the test.
And for the 9.3.2 image:
eagle:Desktop postgres$ otool -L /usr/local/bin/postgres
/usr/local/bin/postgres:
/usr/lib/libssl.0.9.8.dylib (compatibility version 0.9.8, current version 50.0.0)
/usr/lib/libcrypto.0.9.8.dylib (compatibility version 0.9.8, current version 50.0.0)
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1197.1.1)
eagle:Desktop postgres$
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Jerry

Not a suggestion, but a question: What are the full command line invocations to configure for 9.3 and 9.6? Now a suggestion, do you have the openssl devel package installed? > > Thanks > > Jerry > -- Adrian Klaver adrian.klaver@aklaver.com

Hmm, I'm not really sure why it's failing at that step --- it gets past
that for me. Possibly looking into config.log to see if there's a more
detailed error report would be illuminating. However, trying to build
against Apple's openssl libraries is a lost cause anyway, because they
removed the header files in Sierra. So it will fail when it gets to
header file checks; where it stops for me is
checking for openssl/ssl.h... no
configure: error: header file <openssl/ssl.h> is required for OpenSSL
AFAIK the only way forward is to install a complete OpenSSL installation
from source, or using MacPorts or brew or other tool-of-choice.
Apple would really like people to start using their SSL infrastructure.
That handwriting has been on the wall for years, but nobody's gotten
around to writing the necessary interface logic for Postgres.

Sigh, I will try to build without OpenSSL… My database is seventeen years old, I don’t even remember which Postgresql I started out with...
