Perl – Missing SSL Libraries when installing Crypt::SSLeay

I want to subscribe the Amazon SES service in a Amazon EC2 server but the process is so complicated and i need to install numerous things oI want to subscribe the Amazon SES service in a Amazon EC2 server but the process is so complicated and i need to install numerous things only for verifying and email address.

One of the requirement is to install the Crypt::SSLeay Perl library.

  • perl -MCPAN -e ‘install Crypt::SSLeay’

 

But it always complains that it could not find the SSL library so the installation cannot continue. I have installed OpenSSL and i have tried to specify the OpenSSL library path but still cannot work.

Finally, i found the solution. The key is the openssl-devel package rather than openssl. Anyway, if you want to complete the Crypt::SSLeay installation, install the following 2 packages first.

  • yum install openssl
  • yum install openssl-devel

 

Done =)
