Libssl.so.0.9.8 on ec2

amazon ec2openssl

I am trying to install the Common LISP web server Hunchentoot on an ec2 instance (using the Amazon Linux AMI). One of the Hunchentoot dependencies asks for "libssl.so.0.9.8". Hunchentoot apparently can't use the current version of OpenSSL (1.0.0). Also, I can't find "libssl.so.0.9.8" in the standard ec2 package repo. What is the best way to get this older lib and all of it's dependencies?

Edit: The local Linux guru told me to compile 0.9.8 myself into /opt, that's what I'm doing currently. We'll see how that works.

A quick search of the amzn repository on my server shows the following:

yum provides */openssl-devel
...
/usr/lib/libssl.so
...

and

repoquery --list openssl098e*
...
/usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8e
...

Both (openssl-devel and openssl098e) are from the amzn repository - traditionally, the devel package is used when compiling other packages against openSSL, but perhaps the other one will work for you.

Compiling Apache mod_ssl for different target hardware (hardware capability unsupported SSE2 error)

Here are the steps that I have done to successfully build and install the Apache httpd-2.4.10 and OpenSSL openssl-1.0.1j on Solaris 10.

Download following software
openssl-1.0.1j.tar.gz
httpd-2.4.10.tar.gz
apr-1.5.1.tar.gz
apr-util-1.5.4.tar.gz
pcre-8.36.tar.gz
Verify Make and CC
By default gcc is at /usr/sfw/bin/gcc and make is at /usr/ccs/bin/make

Include following in the PATH
usr/local/ssl/bin:/usr/sfw/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/ccs/bin

Include following in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/ssl/lib
Build and install openssl-1.0.1j
Unzip and un-tar openssl-1.0.1j.tar.gz to /usr/local/openssl-1.0.1j
Execute following commands in order. The shared parameter is very important so that it can be linked with httpd-2.4.10 build for SSL enabling.
```
$ cd /usr/local/openssl-1.0.1j
$ ./config shared
$ make
$ make test
$ make install
```
By default it installs openssl at /usr/local/ssl
Install pcre-8.36 Unzip and un-tar pcre-8.36.tar.gz to /usr/local/ pcre-8.36

Execute following commands in order
```
$ cd /usr/local/ pcre-8.36
$ ./configure 
$ make
$ make install
```
By default, make install installs the package's commands under /usr/local/bin, include files under /usr/local/include, etc.
Build and install httpd-2.4.10

Unzip and un-tar httpd-2.4.10.tar.gz to /usr/local/httpd-2.4.10

Unzip and un-tar apr-1.5.1.tar.gz to /usr/local/httpd-2.4.10/srclib
Rename /usr/local/apr-1.5.1 to /usr/local/apr

Unzip and un-tar apr-util-1.5.4.tar.gz to /usr/local/httpd-2.4.10/srclib
Rename /usr/local/apr-util to /usr/local/apr-util

Execute following commands in order
```
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 --with-included-apr --enable-so –enable-ssl=shared --with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl
$ make
$ make install
```
It installs it at /usr/local/apache2

The installation is complete. To enable SSL and Proxy, update /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf with uncommentting following lines

LoadModule socache_shmcb_module modules/mod_socache_shmcb.so

LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_connect_module modules/mod_proxy_connect.so
LoadModule proxy_ftp_module modules/mod_proxy_ftp.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
LoadModule proxy_fcgi_module modules/mod_proxy_fcgi.so
LoadModule proxy_scgi_module modules/mod_proxy_scgi.so
LoadModule proxy_wstunnel_module modules/mod_proxy_wstunnel.so
LoadModule proxy_ajp_module modules/mod_proxy_ajp.so
LoadModule proxy_balancer_module modules/mod_proxy_balancer.so
LoadModule proxy_express_module modules/mod_proxy_express.so

LoadModule slotmem_shm_module modules/mod_slotmem_shm.so
LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so

Include conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf

Now you can work on httpd-ssl.conf as you usually do to complete your configuration

How to get httrack to work with SSL on mac os x? (libssl.so not found)

You could attempt the following:

DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/local/lib" httrack

Or perhaps:

DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES="/opt/local/lib/libssl.1.0.0.dylib" httrack

If that doesn't work, please provide the error output from httrack. Did you build it from source, or download a binary?
