OpenSSL link issues

Cobra91151

Hi! I want to link app to OpenSSL libraries. The problem is, it displays the following errors:

qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function SSLv23_client_method
qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function SSL_CTX_new
qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function SSL_library_init
qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function ERR_get_error
qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function ERR_get_error
qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function SSLv23_client_method
qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function SSL_CTX_new
qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function SSL_library_init
qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function ERR_get_error
qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot call unresolved function ERR_get_error

.pro

win32 {
    contains(QMAKE_TARGET.arch, x86_64) {
       INCLUDEPATH += "C:\\Program Files\\OpenSSL-Win64\\include\\openssl"
       LIBS += -L"C:\\Program Files\\OpenSSL-Win64\\lib" -llibeay32
       LIBS += -L"C:\\Program Files\\OpenSSL-Win64\\lib" -lssleay32
    } else {
       INCLUDEPATH += "C:\\Program Files\\OpenSSL-Win32\\include\\openssl"
       LIBS += -L"C:\\Program Files\\OpenSSL-Win32\\lib" -llibeay32
       LIBS += -L"C:\\Program Files\\OpenSSL-Win32\\lib" -lssleay32
    }
}

How to fix those issues? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Why are you trying to link your application with OpenSSL ?

The error message you are seeing comes from the fact that your application can't find the OpenSSL .dll files at run time.

You should go to the Run part of the Project panel and modify the PATH environment variable to add the folder where the OpenSSL dlls for your compiler can be located.

Thanks, but it will only be available to compiler, how to copy/link/include these libraries automatically to files directory?

The problem was that I didn't copy these libraries to executable directory. Now it's working.
