CentOS7 C++ Cons113 Unable to load CURL

Alvin.Cho

I use C++ version of EMA on Windows and CentOS 6.7 work fine. I am trying to use it on CentOS 7 but it always display error

Exception Type='OmmInvalidUsageException', Text='Failed to add RsslChannel(s) to RsslReactor. Channel name(s) Channel_4

The curl is verion 7.29 on CentOS7. Please advise if any solution on it. Thanks.

I just set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.

[root@1e537192d113 Optimized]# env

You can test it with the OpenSSL command. Run the "openssl version -a" command.

[root@1e537192d113 bin]# ./openssl version -a

Then, test the connection to the server. For example:

./openssl s_client -connect us-east-1-aws-1-med.optimized-pricing-api.refinitiv.net:443

The error message indicates that it is unable to find the curl library.

 Error: 0012 Unable to load CURL 

You can find the curl library in the RTSDK package. It is in the installdb/OL7_64_GCC482/Optimized/lib64 dictionary. You need to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to that location. For example:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/refinitiv/Real-Time-SDK/installdb/OL7_64_GCC482/Optimized/lib64

Hello @Alvin.Cho

You can find the step-by-step guide in the "Use the Libraries with Refinitiv Real-Time SDK C/C++" section of the How to Build OpenSSL, zlib, and cURL Libraries on Linux article.

Hope this helps.

Alvin.Cho

I can't find any folder named installdb. The most similar one is in in build directory/install/lib64. I pointed LD_LIBRARY_PATH here but still get the same error.

Alvin.Cho

I think I follow all the procedures and did at least 3 times. Another user also tried it and got the same result. Is there anything I can check?

@Alvin.Cho

What is the version of RTSDK that you are using?

Are you using the official RTSDK package at https://developers.refinitiv.com/en/api-catalog/refinitiv-real-time-opnsrc/rt-sdk-cc/downloads?

Alvin.Cho

No, I git clone it yesterday

@Alvin.Cho

I got the same error when running without the LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

After setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, I can run it properly.

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/refinitiv/Real-Time-SDK/rtsdk/install/lib64

Please make sure that the version of libcurl is 7.78.0.

[root@1e537192d113 Optimized]# strings /opt/refinitiv/Real-Time-SDK/rtsdk/install/lib64/libcurl.so | grep libcurl
libcurl.so
...
libcurl/7.78.0
libcurl is now using a weak random seed!

Alvin.Cho

Yes I aware of that. But the latest version of CentOS7 supported is 7.29. Does it mean we can't use CentOS 7?

@Alvin.Cho

RTSDK supports CentOS 7. However, you need a new version of libcurl library.

If you run CMake to build the RTSDK package, it will build the libcurl library for you.

Jirapongse

@Alvin.Cho

Otherwise, you can download the RTSDK package from https://developers.refinitiv.com/en/api-catalog/refinitiv-real-time-opnsrc/rt-sdk-cc/downloads. The package contains the libcurl library.

I downloaded the package ans point LD_LIBRARY_PATH under installdb/OL7_64_GCC482. It seems curl works fine but got an error message as following:

I checked old forum post but no idea how to resolve it. Please help. Thanks.

@Alvin.Cho

What is the version of the OpenSSL library that you are using?

Alvin.Cho

openssl 1.1.1g

@Alvin.Cho

I followed the steps mentioned in the How to Build OpenSSL, zlib, and cURL Libraries on Linux article to build the OpenSSL library.

The library was built with the following options.

./config --prefix=/opt/openssl --openssldir=/usr/local/ssl 

The /usr/local/ssl is the directory for OpenSSL configuration files, and also the default certificate and key store.

If I ran the EMA example without copying the certificate file (cert.pem) to the /usr/local/ssl directory, I got the following error.

loggerMsg
    TimeStamp: 08:18:50.222
    ClientName: ChannelCallbackClient
    Severity: Warning
    Text:    Received ChannelDownReconnecting event on channel Channel_4

        RsslReactor 0x0x1e96120
        RsslChannel 0x0x1e96120

loggerMsgEnd

However, if I copy the certificate file (cert.pem) to the /usr/local/ssl directory, the example can run properly.

ln -s /etc/pki/tls/cert.pem /usr/local/ssl/cert.pem

Therefore, you need to check the location of the default certificate and key store used by the OpenSSL library. Then, make sure that the certificate file is in that directory.

Alvin.Cho

There is a link already there, and after I recreated the link it still displayed the same error. Can you show me all the exported variables ?

Alvin.Cho

My OPENSSLDIR is /usr/local/openssl/ssl. I copied cert.pem to this folder and it works. Thanks.
