How to fix "undefined reference to to `SSLv3_client_method`" during cURL custom installation
I finally get this error out !
For that I needed to build a libssh2
version and build a curl
version which used that.
Maybe it is a problem with the bundled curl 7.35.0 in Ubuntu 14.04 (because I used a 7.46.0 during the correction).
So I downloaded a libssh2
source package then I build it :
./configure
make
make install
And I built my curl
instance to use this libssh2
:
./configure --with-libssh2=/usr/local --disable-shared
make
make install
With that I have an operational instance of curl 7.46 (the lastest stable) which is also able to use the SFTP & SCP protocols.
I needed to use the --disable-shared
flag to force a new compilation of different libs. Without that, the SFTP / SCP are not enabled... Maybe someone can give me some details here...
No more errors about the missing SSLv3_client_method
, everything is ok !

I work on a project which use cURL a lot. Recently we add a new feature to allow perform SFTP calls within our API.
SFTP is disabled by default in cURL so I tried to search how to enable it. I found that answer which helped me but during the build process I got an error about
SSLv3_client_method
reference.I ran :
sudo apt-get install build-essential debhelper libssh2-1-dev sudo apt-get source libcurl3 sudo apt-get build-dep libcurl3 cd curl-*/debian vim rules #Append "--with-libssh2" cd .. sudo dpkg-buildpackage cd .. sudo dpkg -i curl_xxxxx.deb sudo dpkg -i libcurl3_xxxx.deb sudo dpkg -i libcurl3-gnutls_xxxx.deb
After the update my "rules" file contains :
cd debian/build && dh_auto_configure ${CONFIGURE_ARGS} \ --with-ca-path=/etc/ssl/certs --with-libssh2 cd debian/build-gnutls && dh_auto_configure ${CONFIGURE_ARGS} \ --with-ca-bundle=/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt \ --without-ssl --with-gnutls --with-libssh2 cd debian/build-nss && dh_auto_configure ${CONFIGURE_ARGS} \ --with-ca-bundle=/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt \ --without-ssl --with-nss --with-libssh2
Then I got the error :
../lib/.libs/libcurl.so: undefined reference to `SSLv3_client_method' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[4]: *** [curl] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/bee4/curl-7.35.0/debian/build/src' make[3]: *** [all] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/bee4/curl-7.35.0/debian/build/src' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/bee4/curl-7.35.0/debian/build' dh_auto_build: make -j1 returned exit code 2 make[1]: *** [override_dh_auto_build] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/bee4/curl-7.35.0' make: *** [build] Error 2 dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2
I use Ubuntu 14.04 on an OVH server. Maybe I'm doing something wrong ? Also is it the right way to enable SFTP support through the cURL PHP extension (first build the right cURL version then install the PHP extension).
