libcrypto.so.4

[ju5t]

For some reason yum does not want to update on of our servers.

Error: Missing Dependency: libcrypto.so.4 is needed by package net-snmp-libs

Other servers do not have that issue and are updating fine. I've compared files and configurations with one of them and they show the same.
OpenSSL is currently running at 0.9.8e on both servers and libcrypto should be available.

[root@xeon-2 ~]# openssl version
OpenSSL 0.9.8e 23 Feb 2007
[root@xeon-2 ~]# ls /lib/libcrypto.so.4
/lib/libcrypto.so.4

Adding or removing it to ld.so.conf makes no difference.

[root@xeon-2 ~]# cat /etc/ld.so.conf
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
/usr/local/lib
/usr/local/ssl/lib

Any ideas what can be going wrong?

 

[tanfwc]

what command are you trying to run anyway?

 

[ju5t]

Just "yum update", nothing fancy.

What's the output of:

ls -al /lib/libcrypto.so.4

What's the output of:

whereis libcrypto

and of

whereis libcrypto.so.4

And finally, what OS Distribution are you using?

Hi Jeff,

[root@xeon-2 ~]# ls -al /lib/libcrypto.so.4
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 24 Sep  7 19:09 /lib/libcrypto.so.4 -> /lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.7a

[root@xeon-2 ~]# whereis libcrypto

Running CentOS.

 

[nobaloney]

Mine are slightly different using CentOS4. Is it possible that earlier files or links in the path are not pointing to the right files?

# ls -al /lib/libcrypto.so.4
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 19 Jan 29  2006 /lib/libcrypto.so.4 -> libcrypto.so.0.9.7a
# whereis libcrypto
libcrypto: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so /usr/lib/libcrypto.a
# whereis libcrypto.so.4
libcrypto.so: /lib/libcrypto.so.4 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so

Which version of openssl are you running?
How is your ld.so.conf looking like?

# ls -al /lib/libcrypto.so.4
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 19 Sep  8 08:40 /lib/libcrypto.so.4 -> libcrypto.so.0.9.7a
# whereis libcrypto
libcrypto: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so /usr/lib/libcrypto.a
# whereis libcrypto.so.4
libcrypto.so: /lib/libcrypto.so.4 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so

It's looking similar to yours.
Did rpm -e --justdb --nodeps cyrus-sasl-plain and tried to install it afterwards:

# yum install cyrus-sasl-plain

I have really no clue what can be going wrong now. Reinstalling openssl or downgrading to 0.9.8a didn't help either.

 

[nobaloney]

Which version of openssl are you running?

$ rpm -qa | grep openssl
openssl-devel-0.9.7a-43.16
xmlsec1-openssl-1.2.6-3
openssl-0.9.7a-43.16
$

How is your ld.so.conf looking like?

$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
/usr/local/lib
/usr/local/lib
$

Nor do I. May I humbly suggest you ask some questons on the CentOS users mailing list?

Jeff

 

[ju5t]

Oh are you running an rpm?
Not that it should be much different from a compiled version, though I always thought openssl shouldn't be installed from an rpm on a DirectAdmin server.

 

[nobaloney]

And I've always thought it was, as part of the server install:

$ rpm -qa | grep ssl
openssl-devel-0.9.7a-43.16
xmlsec1-openssl-1.2.6-3
openssl-0.9.7a-43.16
$

Remember that versions in RPMs may not appear to be up-to-date, because when RedHat/CentOS creates new RPMs they update sub-numbers, not version numbers.

In the case of this particular server, it was last updated on May 18th.

Jeff, thanks for your input. The problem is solved now with some help from another forum.

It seems that when yum is installing or updating, it will look for installed RPM's, at least, sort of speak. I'm not entirely sure how the process works.

Anyway, a simple "yum install openssl" after removing openssl* from the exclude line in yum.conf did the trick. A manual update to 0.9.8e afterwards and we're all done. Just put the openssl* back on the exclude line if you want to update manually.

Hope this helps anyone in the future.
