WARNING: can't open config file: /rsusr/rocket/ssl/openssl.cnf

Question

I get this message when using openssl. We did not install openssl in /rsusr/rocket, but instead used a different path. Shouldn't openssl base the location of the openssl.cnf file on the location of the openssl binary? Should we just "bite the bullet" and install it (or set a symbolic link from) /rsusr/rocket?

Hi Frank,

You can just set the OPENSSL_CONF environment variable to your own location:
export OPENSSL_CONF=/your/openssl/location/ssl/openssl.cnf

Thanks,
Alexander
