SSL_CTX error, Lispworks MacOS

I have a student with Lispworks Personal on MacOS El Capitan and we can't get SLL to work.

Using (comm:set-ssl-library-path "/usr/lib/libssl.dylib") fixed a failure with (comm:ensure-ssl) but comm:attach-ssl still fails.

Any ideas what else to check for, configure, test, ...?

Hi,

works for me with a 64bit LispWorks on macOS 10.12.

Re: SSL_CTX error, Lispworks MacOS

Yes, it works for almost everyone but this student. He’s installed OpenSSL multiple ways, multiple architectures.

When we got ensure-ssl to work after set-ssl-library-path to the same version that works on my Mac, in /usr/lib. It’s a fat binary, but 32 and 64 bit. We thought we were all set, but then attach-ssl breaks internal with that SSL_CTX error. Many restarts along the way.

So what can we look at next?
