openssl: make[1]: *** [test_des] Error 127 on Bash on Windows about linuxbrew-core

@rwhogg What it means "build-error"?

[rwhogg]

@ginolon it's the label we add for when a formula does not build correctly.

Is openssl actually usable? I.e. is this just an extra error message or does openssl not work?

I'm afraid I personally cannot debug this problem as I don't have access to a Windows machine to test with.

openssl doesn't work. And I can't install git with brew and many others packages. Why that error? Can I install previous version? Can I skip the make test phase?

[rwhogg]

To skip the test, run brew install openssl --without-test.

You can install a previous version by using git to checkout an earlier version of openssl.rb if you'd like.

To provide us with some more information, can you run brew gist-logs openssl (on the current version of openssl) please?

Thanks a bunch!

Running Linuxbrew on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) has not yet been tested. There will probably be some fixes required. We're happy to help if you're up for the necessary troubleshooting.

[sjackman]

This error message make[1]: *** [test_des] Error 127 means that make was not able to find the command test_des.

[sjackman]

Do you happen to know if there's a program where I can apply for a free developer's license of Windows Subsystem for Linux to run in Virtualbox? I don't have access to a Windows device.

Ok dear @rwhogg, it worked without-test, but many other errors below:

here it is what you ask (brew gist-logs openssl):

and here what strange is coming on my PC:

and then if I try to install something else:

What is it?

[sjackman]

iouser@DESKTOP-4DIVL3A:~$ openssl
openssl: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.0.0: cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: Invalid argument

That's a strange error. I would ask the upstream developers of openssl if it makes sense to them.

[sjackman]

I'm glad that the --without-test workaround worked for openssl.

/usr/bin/perl ./zsh.pl ../src/curl > _curl

Not sure about this error either. Please report brew gist-logs curl.

[rwhogg]

Do you happen to know if there's a program where I can apply for a free developer's license of Windows Subsystem for Linux to run in Virtualbox? I don't have access to a Windows device.

Did Microsoft ever get back to you about that? Last I heard, when you asked them it was awaiting moderation.

[sjackman]

No, I haven't heard back from them. The public forum may not have been the right channel to ask, but I'm not sure what the right channel is.

[sjackman]

As for the above errors, I'm thinking something like files in /tmp not being executable, but brew doctor checks for that and hasn't reported any problems.

@sjackman, Here its is brew gist-logs curl:

https://gist.github.com/1b99d5e8d492fc841905a78638c14d6a

[sjackman]

Here's the relevant line: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/1b99d5e8d492fc841905a78638c14d6a#file-02-make-L473
I'm afraid I can't say what's going on there without hands-on access to the machine. I would suggest contacting the upstream curl developers. I believe that they're quite responsive.
As a total shot in the dark, try brew install zsh curl
