[PLATFORM]: ERROR: Runtime error module 'plugin.openssl' not found:resource (plugin.openssl.lu) does not exist in archive

• [x] I tried searching Solar2D forums for the solution.

Describe the bug Unable to run the native mobile application because of the run time error ERROR: Runtime error module 'plugin.openssl' not found:resource (plugin.openssl.lu) does not exist in archive

It seems the plugins are not installed automatically or I may be missing a configuration

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Copy the corona cross platform templates for android and ios with Corona projects
2. Add a new plugin in the Corona/build.settings
3. Run the native application
4. You should see an error in logs and screen, please refer below screenshot

Target platform and where build was made:

• Device: iPhone11 pro simulator, android Pixel 5 simulator
• OS: IOS 14.4, Android API 30

Additional context I am trying a spike withe openssl plugin. Following the guidelines I have added the plugin to the build.settings file. The native app templates are a copy of the simulator templates.

Same thing happens if I add any other plugin

-- File: Corona/main.lua
local openssl = require "plugin.openssl"

Below is the screenshot of how the project structure and the settings file look.

whole test project or build.settings

-- For more information on build.settings see the Corona Build Guide at:

settings = 
{
    --[[
    orientation =
    {
        default = "portrait",
        supported = { "portrait" }
    },
    --]]

    plugins =
    {
        ["plugin.openssl"] =
        {
            publisherId = "com.coronalabs"
        },
    }, 

    iphone =
    {
        xcassets = "Images.xcassets",
        plist =
        {
            UILaunchStoryboardName = "LaunchScreen",
        },
    },
}

It seems you're running M1 Arm processor. Unfortunately I failed to build OpenSSL plug-in for M1. I'll keep trying and will let you know if I was successful. Thank you so much for detailed report.

Hi @Shchvova, thanks for responding to my issue. I am actually building on 2.3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7, hope it helps.

Same problem. i've solved this by adding plugins manually.

Closing due collector support being add in to Solar2D Native and should now download the plugins (including for open ssl) Also a patch was implmented for m1 for open ssl
