go build error while building sawtooth transaction processor on macos


I am trying to build sawtooth transaction processor on macos. The transaction processor is written in golang. When I do go build it throws the following error:

go build
# github.com/hyperledger/sawtooth-sdk-go/signing
ld: library not found for -lcrypto
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Please note openssl is already installed

any suggestion/comment would be really helpful.


Solution

  • Executing below two commands fixed the issue:

    ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib /usr/local/lib
    ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.a /usr/local/lib
