Question

Using electron-builder to build Windows app, When signing up, I got this error :

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib
          


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem. In my case, for a legacy Rails 2.4 app. It seems brew had updated /usr/local/opt/openssl to symlink to openssl@1.1/1.1.1d.

After trying several other things, I fixed it by manually updating the symlink /usr/local/opt/openssl to point to the 1.0.2s version that was already on my system:

MacBook-Pro/usr/local/opt(:|✔) % pwd
/usr/local/opt
MacBook-Pro/usr/local/opt(:|✔) % ll openssl*
lrwxr-xr-x  1 dhempy  admin  24 Feb 19 11:36 openssl -> ../Cellar/openssl/1.0.2s
lrwxr-xr-x  1 dhempy  admin  28 Feb 19 08:55 openssl@1.1 -> ../Cellar/openssl@1.1/1.1.1d

Hopefully this is one-and-done for me, and I won't have to reapply that symlink after every update.

Answer 2

This is the process I had to use to fix this issue. I am not sure how to use brew extract correctly.

We need openssl in order to use wget.

brew install openssl

Now, download version 1.0.2t and install it.

wget https://github.com/tebelorg/Tump/releases/download/v1.0.0/openssl.rb
brew install openssl.rb

Answer 3

Just switch to 1.0.2t version, using this command:

brew switch openssl 1.0.2t
