[BUILD] Enable SSL for curl in bazel build environment

marcalff commented 10 months ago

Initialy reported in PR #2415

When building with bazel, CURL is not compiled with SSL.

The following need to be fixed:

the bazel build itself
running at least manually the OTLP HTTP functional tests, to verify the build is correct (these tests uses https)
consider to add the OTLP HTTP functional tests in CI, for a bazel build

I'm experiencing a very similar issue when using the opentelemetry-cpp library to send logs via HTTPS. I receive the following error when trying to use an HTTPS endpoint:

[Error] File: ext/src/http/client/curl/http_operation_curl.cc:546 CURL, set option <32> failed: <A requested feature, protocol or option was not found built-in in this libcurl due to a build-time decision.

It seems that libcurl being used does not have SSL/TLS support, which is causing the failure for HTTPS connections. This exact issue happens even when HTTPS is fully supported on my system for other applications.

It would be great to raise the priority of this bug, as HTTPS support is essential for many use cases, and HTTP works without issues.

Thank you!
