No OpenSSL for Python from SAP BTP

mwn — Tue, 28 Mar 2023 06:22:32 GMT

Tutorials: https://developers.sap.com/tutorials/btp-cf-buildpacks-python-create.html
--------------------------

I have successfully followed this tutorial. Today, I found that BTP CF will be changing to a new runtime cflinuxfs4 and so I tried to push my app with the parameter -s cflinuxfs4 . It deployed OK, but at runtime I am getting an error from the dbapi.connect call saying that "-10709, 'Connection failed (RTE:[300002] OpenSSL is not available"

Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Thanks

I have tested now with Python buildpack .. its works. No issues with open SSL.

You don't need to push with -s cflinuxfs4... Just push cf push or cf push <appname>

It seems I need a newer version of the hdbcli library, which can be done by changing the requirements.txt file to include a line:

hdbcli==2.16.21

Don’t I need to use the -s option at least once to set the new runtime? Yes, subsequent pushes don’t need it, but it will default to 3 until I tell it 4.

Can confirm. This worked for me.
