this may not be related to the upgrade(used asdf) but I’m getting this when running mix local.hex:
➜ mix local.hex

any ideas?
I upgraded to erlang 22.2.1 at the same time via asdf. When I return back to erlang 22.0.7 via editing .tool-versions the issue goes away.
So it has something to do with 22.2.1 ..

Mac OS X, with brew and asdf:
Uninstall erlang with missing
ssl.app:asdf uninstall erlang 22.2.1then:
simpers
This does not work. I started getting this problem after I updated to Catalina. I couldn’t fix it back in January so I gave up on it as I have a laptop with Linux as well, that I prefer anyway.
But now I need to fix this, so does anybody have a fix for this that does not result in this:
It still says it cannot find a usable OpenSSL, which results in the build not having ssl.app (nor crypto and ssh).

what is at the path
/usr/local/opt/openssl?This is what I see:

On Catalina I am using the following in my
.zshrcto supportasdfinstalling Erlang.Based upon your post perhaps you need:
simpers
This got it working, thanks!
I removed
--enable-wxas that is not necessary, and I changed the location of SSL to/usr/local/Cellar/openssl@1.1/1.1.1ginstead, as the other one was just a chain of symlinks anyway.It still complains about
wxnot being available when it compiles but that is fine, I’ll survive haha.tfwright
I just ran into this on a fresh ubuntu 20.10 install after installing Erlang via asdf. I was able to fix it by uninstalling Erlang (which was itself a pain that required me to manually rm -rf the files and uninstall the plugin as well) and reinstalling it after installing the libssh-dev package from apt as instructed in the asdf-erlang plugin README.
