how can I fix that issue?

Solution:

openssl = {version = "0.10.55", features = ["vendored"]}

openssl = {version = "0.10.55", features = ["vendored"]}

try adding a nixpacks.toml file with this in it

[phases.setup]
aptPkgs = ["...", "libssl-dev"]

Brody•17mo ago

okay, I will do some testing later and get back to you

yaviscokeOP•17mo ago

thanks i just hosted same template and it worked but when i make some changes in code it fails

Brody•17mo ago

you must have added a crate that relies on openssl please provide me a minimal reproducible repo, or there's not much I can do to help, I was under the impression the unmodified template fails to build

yaviscokeOP•17mo ago

I literally hosted https://github.com/dobecad/actix-sqlx-pg this and it worked when I made changes, it started failing, i just reseted everything as it was default, and now its still failing

Brody•17mo ago

yaviscokeOP•17mo ago

found out reqwest package causes that

Brody•17mo ago

I would still need a minimal reproducible repo

yaviscokeOP•17mo ago

okay wait

here is in Cargo.toml if i remove reqwest it builds well

Brody•17mo ago

thanks, I will do some tests later

yaviscokeOP•17mo ago

I just fixed it by adding openssl package in cargo

Solution

yaviscoke•17mo ago

openssl = {version = "0.10.55", features = ["vendored"]}

openssl = {version = "0.10.55", features = ["vendored"]}

Brody•17mo ago

ah I'm glad you could solve it!
