QSslSocket: cannot resolve SSLV2_client_method

Question

I have created a sslclient and sslserver using QSslSocket in Qt 5.4.1 in debian wheezy. When I run the program they dont work at all. After debuging my code I saw when it try to create a new object from QSslSocket it return this error (cannot resolve SSLV2_client_method) in constractor.

this is block of my code:

SSlClient::SSlClient(QObject *parent) : QObject(parent)
{
    client = new QSslSocket(this);
    client->setProtocol(QSsl::SslV3);

    connect(client, SIGNAL(encrypted()), this, SLOT(startTransfer()));
    connect(client, SIGNAL(encryptedBytesWritten(qint64)), this, SLOT(byteWritten()));


}

Have you installed OpenSSL on your system? – Whomsoever

Yes i have installed openssl 1.0.1 – Rabies

Which operating system are you on? – Kathlenekathlin

I have debian wheezy on my system – Rabies

Some Linux distributions configure SSL2 out of OpenSSL, because they think it's not secure. May be that's the reason of the warning. Try to install another version of OpenSSL. – Whomsoever

Answer 1

The problem has solved by compiling openssl as shared library.
