Running fop2 in Slackware Linux

Norman

Im trying to run fop2 in an Asterisk PBX running on Slackware Linux, and receiving the following output:

# ./fop2_server
Can't load '/tmp/par-root/cache-f0a3f11efb4858d29f477772e1bc9d218df72f95/a18db233.so' for module Filter::Crypto::Decrypt: libcrypto.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 230.

Linux kernel 2.6.32.7, Perl 5.8.7, glibc 2.3.5, Asterisk 1.4.32, Dahdi 2.4.0.
Any input on this will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

You should create a symlink to libcrypto the same way it has to be done on Centos 6, but using the correct filename for your installation (I do not know for sure what is your libcrypto version and files on the system. Something on the lines of:

ln -s /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.4 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.6

Thank you very much Nicolás,

In this particular case - Slackware with OpenSSL 0.9.7(g), the command needed was:

ln -s /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.7 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.4

that solved libcrypto library load problem. However, I have a new - and seemingly more difficult - problem. Now Filter::Crypto::Decrypt is detecting the Perl debugger as active in Slackware's Perl binary:

# ./fop2_server
Debugging flag values: (see also -d)
[ Long list of debugging parameters clipped off ]
Can't run with DEBUGGING Perl at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 253.

Compilation failed in require at script/fop2_server.pl line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at script/fop2_server.pl line 1.

Strangely, and as far as I remember, Slackware's Perl does not ship with debugging. The original makefile compilation parameters for this package version were:

./Configure -de \
-Dprefix=/usr \
-Dcccdlflags='-fPIC' \
-Dinstallprefix=/usr \
-Doptimize="-O2 -march=i486 -mcpu=i686"\

-Darchname=i486-linux

Fop2 does not run with a debugging perl, it never will. You have to compile perl without the debugging flag and it will work. I am sorry, there is no way around that but recompiling perl.

Best regards,
