Using QSslSocket with custom OpenSSL
-
Are you sure you don't have any other application that has these libraries and that can be found in your PATH environment variable ?
-
How did you modify PATH ? In your Windows settings or in Qt Creator ?
-
Hi, also, they could be loaded via some other means than their directories being listed in %PATH%, either that some other dll that your .exe loads explicitly pulls in the bad (i.e. 32-bit) ones, or perhaps they're hiding in c:\windows or c:\windows\system32.
To debug this. you could try download Dependency Walker and load your app into it. Then start profiling with F7, that'll get you a trace of all the dlls loaded.

Using Qt5.7+msvc2015+W8
Solved, in Qt_naming dll respect, without openssl compilation :
http://www.npcglib.org/~stathis/downloads/openssl-1.0.1t-vs2015.7z -
Not in Qt but within Qt Creator. Go to the Run part of the Project panel. There you can modify your environment for your application only.

@raven-worx Not any more. As of OpenSSL 1.1.0, following OpenSSL's build instructions on Windows (and with shared libraries enabled), we get:
bin/libcrypto-1_1.dll
bin/libssl-1_1.dll
lib/libcrypto.lib
lib/libssl.libThe names "ssleay32" and "libeay32" were deprecated. So does Qt only look for the old names despite any attempts at configuring it otherwise?
Qt's docs on the topic, for some reason, only describe building OpenSSL for Android.

@RMcFatter
Hi and welcome to devnet,From a quick look at Qt's sources, it doesn't search yet for libcrypto/ssl-1_1.
That something you should check in the bug report system to see if there's already something planned for that.

same problem here.
I want to use some functions from OpenSSL which i actually can not access from the prebuilt OpenSSL Libs which are shipped with QT (libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll);
So i thought i can build OpenSSL on my own and link to these libs in my project. This works as expected, but i now have the coexistence of the prebuilt OpenSSL Libs and my own built libs (libcrypto-1_1.dll and libssl-1_1.dll)
This is not a big problem, but i tghought why using these two libs together, when i can maybe use only one? So i tried to rename my own build libs to the names of the old one, but there my application is crashing whith multiple error messages:
qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve CRYPTO_num_locks qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve CRYPTO_set_id_callback qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve CRYPTO_set_locking_callback qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve ERR_free_strings qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve EVP_CIPHER_CTX_init qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve sk_new_null qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve sk_push qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve sk_free qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve sk_num qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve sk_pop_free qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve sk_value qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve SSL_library_init qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve SSL_load_error_strings qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve SSL_get_ex_new_index qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve SSLv3_client_method qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve SSLv23_client_method qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve SSLv3_server_method qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve SSLv23_server_method qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve X509_STORE_CTX_get_chain qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve SSLeay qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve SSLeay_version qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function SSLeay qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function CRYPTO_num_locks qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function CRYPTO_set_id_callback qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function CRYPTO_set_locking_callback qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function SSL_library_init qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function SSLv23_client_method qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function sk_num
Then i found this Thread here and hoped to get the solution, but no, like @SGaist said. So i think i have to wait for an updated Qt version so that i can replace the files. Or could it be the better solution to built Qt on my own with own OpenSSL Support? if yes, is there a good Tutorial? Or can i use ALL the OpenSSL Functions with the prebuilt OpenSSL in Qt? If yes, a little example would be nice, because i don't got it.

You can build Qt with the
-openssl-linked
option and pointconfigure
to your self-built version of OpenSSL. -
@SGaist said in Using QSslSocket with custom OpenSSL:
You can build Qt with the
-openssl-linked
option and pointconfigure
to your self-built version of OpenSSL.i tried it that way, but buildung QT 5.7 with OpenSSL 1.1.0b ist not supported till QT 5.9 because in OpenSSL are some changes done, so that building QT 5.7 with that new OpenSSL version did not work. See here: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-52905
Then i tried it with an older version of OpenSSL (1.0.2j) - this works.
But what ist the difference between building Qt gainst OpenSSL with -openssl on running the configure-command and to link against the OpenSSL headers and libs and build it inside the Project? If i build against OpenSSL i have to include the headers anyway to work with the libs if i want to use the OpenSSL specific stuff.
And i noticed that i can replace the built in OpenSSL libs with the own build one. So it would be much simpler to include the ehaders of OpenSSL via INCLUDEPATH. So i get OpenSSL support = true on output of: qDebug() << QSslSocket::supportsSsl();
And if print out his i got the Output which i wrote behind:
qDebug() << QSslSocket::sslLibraryBuildVersionString(); // OpenSSL 1.0.2g 1 Mar 2016
qDebug() << QSslSocket::sslLibraryVersionString(); // OpenSSL 1.0.2j 26 Sep 2016Why is the first one at all time: OpenSSL 1.0.2g 1 Mar 2016 - This i got, too if i build Qt at own and link against OpenSSL 1.0.2j??
-
It's in the docs:
sslLibraryBuildVersionString
is returning the version of the OpenSSL library used when building Qt.
sslLibraryVersionString
is returning the version of the OpenSSL library used at run time.By default OpenSSL is dlopened because some countries have restrictions about encryption related software and OpenSSL can't be distributed just like that.
-
Silly question but are you sure that you are using your self-build Qt in your kit ?
-
No, the Qt version used to build Qt Creator doesn't affect any any way the Qt version you are using with your kit.
Do you have another OpenSSL version installed on your system ?
-
@SGaist said in Using QSslSocket with custom OpenSSL:
on used to bui
no not installed like the precompiled OpenSSL Libraries. I searched the whole PC (Windows) for OpenSSL and libeay32.dll. I found many applications which are using OpenSSL but only one Application uses the specific OpenSSL version OpenSSL 1.0.2g 1 Mar 2016 i posted above. This Application is Adobe Lightroom.
Could this be the problem on building Qt that some shipped libeay32.dlls are used on build process?
