Dear Bioconductor Support,

I Updated My R to 3.5.1 and reinstalled the rtracklayer. However, I got the error report as follows：

1 error part

Creating a generic function from function 'uri' in package 'rtracklayer'

Note: possible error in 'updateIds(doc, save = x)': unused argument (save = x)

2 error part

Error: package or namespace load failed for 'rtracklayer' in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...):

unable to load shared object '/home/RWD/R/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-library/3.5/rtracklayer/libs/rtracklayer.so':

/home/RWD/R/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-library/3.5/rtracklayer/libs/rtracklayer.so: undefined symbol: OPENSSL_init_ssl.

Error: loading failed
Execution halted
ERROR: loading failed

Next I used the 'ldd' command to find what the libraries needed by rtracklayer.so.But all libraries are satisfied(The latter part has related reports)

I do not know if it is my installation problem, or if there is a problem with OpenSSL, or a problem with rtracklayer.

How do I properly install the rtracklayer package? The installation instructions are recommended as follows：

“The rtracklayer package can use openssl for accessing https URLs when e.g. importing BigWig files. One can set the OPENSSL_LIBS and OPENSSL_CFLAGS environment variables for specifying the relevant linker and preprocessor/compiler flags, respectively.”

How to set the OPENSSL_LIBS and OPENSSL_CFLAGS environment variables?

I need your help! Thank you so much!

It's strange how the actual building of the package is not in the log. Are you omitting that?

Probably what's happening here is that the build process is finding openssl >=1.1.0 headers, which map SSL_library_init() to OPENSSL_init_ssl(), but the runtime linker is finding an older openssl lib (<= 1.0.2) that is missing that symbol.

Somehow the configure script is finding the openssl.pc file for the newer openssl. You could try setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH to point to the file for the older one.

You can use Sys.setenv() in R to set environment variables.

Now I think the problem must be in the libcrypto.so.1.1 .

I tried to delete libcrypto.so.1.1 and changed it to openssl-1.0.0, openssl-1.1.1, openssl-1.1.2 and got a similar error report. You can check out my own reply.

What should I do next?

I wouldn't do any renaming of files. You're going to have to figure out the versions of your openssl headers and libraries, and make sure that you're using the same version for both by setting environment variables as described previously.

Sorry, I am a chemist. I just started learning R language. Can you give me some specific implementation commands? This is a bit difficult for me. I don't know how to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH and Sys.setenv(). I am so sorry.Thanks a lot!

Since you're using CentOS, I wonder if you're using R in an enterprise environment, where you might have system support staff available to help you?

Too many log file words, bioconductor does not support too many words. If you are willing to read the log file, I can email it to you.That is too difficult for me.

Operate on my own computer. Maybe I should find a classmate who is familiar with the CentOS system to help. This may be difficult, chemistry students rarely use the Linux system. But I will try it, thank you very much. If you have any guidance and advice, look forward to your help.

If you have root, you could probably try updating your openssl to 1.1.0 or above. But if you can't set an environment variable, that might be a tall order.

Thank you! I tried setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH to my /usr/local/lib64/pkgconfig, it is work well.

I have learned a lot, thank you Michael Lawrence!!

I found a useful information on the website.

https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/32f803d88ec3df7f95dfbf840c271f7438ce3357/doc/man3/SSL_library_init.pod

The SSL_library_init() and OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms() functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 1.1.0 by OPENSSL_init_ssl().

Is this the reason?

Now I know the problem must be in the libcrypto.so.1.1 . Possible modification of the library file is the answer!!!

https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/32f803d88ec3df7f95dfbf840c271f7438ce3357/doc/man3/SSL_library_init.pod

The SSL_library_init() and OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms() functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 1.1.0 by OPENSSL_init_ssl().

This may require enough attention, the rtracklayer package is very important. I need help!

If anyone can help me, please!!!

Why am I so sure?

when I removed the /usr/local/lib64/libcrypto.so.1.1 I got the new error report as follows：

When I connect the library file /usr/local/lib64/libcrypto.so.1.1 to /usr/local/lib/libcrypto.so.1.0.2k. I got the new error report as follows:

I solved this problem, thank Michael Lawrence for his helpful help, and hope that my experience can help others.

Error 1

Creating a generic function from function 'uri' in package 'rtracklayer'

Note: possible error in 'updateIds(doc, save = x)': unused argument (save = x)

........

Solution1：

This may be because the XML package is not installed. When I installed the package, there was no similar error. Installing the XML package may also result in the lack of some dynamic libraries, but it is easy to solve.

Error 2
