Linux Python SSL

[Frag1337]

Hi everyone,

I'm having an interesting issue with the latest build on ubuntu and receive following error in my plugins:

Error: <urlopen error unknown url type: https>
Can't connect to HTTPS URL because the SSL module is not available.

This does not happen on the windows build..

You need to install the correct version of libssl for Python ssl to work. It should be something like libssl-dev for Ubuntu and you explicitly want a 1.1.x version, not libssl3 (shouldn't be a problem if your distro natively provides libffi7 still).

Thank you for this information. Indeed, installing the correct 1.1.x 32bit version made it work! Thank you.

For anyone with the same issue, this was the fix:

wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.1f-1ubuntu2.24_i386.deb
apt install ./libssl1.1_1.1.1f-1ubuntu2.24_i386.deb
