Fails to run on Windows 10: "could not find symbol: SSL_library_init [LibraryError]" #27

After downloading and unpacking the 0.8.5 zip, I get the following errors in cmd.exe window:

Does https://github.com/nim-lang/choosenim/releases/tag/master work for you?

It worked for me

Still doesn't work here.

flowstate247 commented 2 months ago

I've just tested the latest tag/master. There are some differences, but the issue is still not resolved.

EDIT5: Can confirm that manually downloading the files from https://nim-lang.org/download/dlls.zip and putting them in the same folder as the exe works. Also, why is choosenim looking for ssleay/libeay DLLs when the files in that archive have libcrypto/libssl DLLs instead?

If I run it from my downloads directory c:\Users\my_user\Downloads\choosenim-0.8.7_windows_amd64.exe it works, if I move it anywhere e.g. c:\choosenim\choosenim-0.8.7_windows_amd64.exe I get the same error as everyone else... Weird

EDIT: It might be related to the Windows SmartScreen stuff, basically I double clicked the executable once in the downloads folder and allowed it to run and now it only runs from there and with that. If I move it I don't get another smartscreen prompt and it doesnt work at all

EDIT2: I tried the master release and even though I allowed it in smartscreen I only get:

dynlib.nim(64)           raiseInvalidLibrary
Error: unhandled exception: could not find symbol: SSL_library_init [LibraryError]

EDIT3: Whatever happened I can't get it to run at all anymore. Even though I turned of smartscreen completely. Scanning my system I found that I have tens of libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll scattered all over my system. Some of those are very old. It might be the case that choosenim shouldn't rely on finding the first one in path but rather always downloading a version that is known to work

Cool, perhaps we can ship the DLLs in the choosenim zip files

ringabout commented 1 month ago

Hello, since https://github.com/nim-lang/choosenim/pull/40, it has bundled DLLs with the choosenim binary. Would you mind checking the zip file of https://github.com/nim-lang/choosenim/releases/tag/master ?

I think I found the issue with these warnings: 

Warning: Error copying 'cacert.pem' to 'C:\Users\phili\.nimble\bin': Le chemin d’accès spécifié est introuvable.
        ... Additional info: ("C:\\Users\\phili\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\choosenim-dlls\\cacert.pem", "C:\\Users\\phili\\.nimble\\bin\\cacert.pem")

When I checked in the file explorer, I didn't find the "C:\Users\phili\AppData\Local\Temp\choosenim-dlls" folder.

Instead, there is a folder "C:\Users\phili\AppData\Local\Temp\choosenim-extraction" that contains all the dlls to be copied.

I hope it is useful to you.
