Install FreeCAD-addons-master

[easyw-fc]

Got it!
libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll are missing
How they are being found on my working system is TBD. copying these 2 files from 0.15 bin directory fixes the problem.

Great!
that fixed both my FC016 and FC017 on windows 10 64b (both just unzipped, not installed)
thanks

Maurice, which 0.16 are you using the latest 0.16.6706? I'm testing if this breaks something else, like F1 help.
I'm on my always working system now and the dlls are missing but it still works

Reading on the internet it could be related to having OpenSSL installed or not. I am not sure if it's packed with FreeCAD or not on Windows but if you have manually installed OpenSSL in the past on your system it is probably influencing the results you are observing.

Hi,
I was with FC016 6704 64b, but I tested with FC016 6706 64b and copying the dlls the addon installer is fine...
PLUS finally I can get pip (python get-pip.py) using just FC python distribution FANTASTIC!

have you any PATH pointing to local dll?

I'm looking and haven't found anything yet. The always working machine is the the one I use for the FreeCAD builds so I try to not install anything. I uninstalled my system installed python to try to avoid these issues.

PLUS finally I can get pip (python get-pip.py) using just FC python distribution FANTASTIC!

And get python packages installed into the FreeCAD python ecosystem? If so, do you mind to start a new thread and explain. This indeed would be a big deal, and probably help with Mandeep_Singh's work on an updated addons installer.

OpenSSL is a dependency of QT so this, is packaged with FreeCAD, and is definitely relevant. The dlls got dropped when I upgraded QT. The precompiled version of openssl used for the precompiled version of QT uses MariaDB instead of MYSQL. Fortunately the generated dlls are named different. But some testing is needed to see if they can live side by side.

I normally try to avoid to install most of sw to have fully contained sw folders so to be able to easily replicate a PC environment into a different one...
I use to run python scripts from FreeCAD python folder, without the need to install an extra python environment ...
Having pip on the same FC python folder is giving me the ability to install python modules on the same FC python environment ...
I did in the past (FC015) but I was missing pip in latest FC versions, now not anymore!

When you will release a FC distribution with ssl fixed, I will be pleased to start the thread on 'get-pip' in FreeCAD, so every user could check it directly in the new FC distro

Thanks again for your support

Might not be relevant but it might explain your behaviour:

https://github.com/paralect/robomongo/issues/786

That is it looks like you could have OpenSSL installed (manually) on the machine you removed ssleay32.dll and libeay32.dll library and that is why it is still working?

If that's not motivation nothing is
x64 version is ready for testing https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/rele ... g/0.17_pre

I will make updated installers if it doesn't break other stuff.
Thanks for staying with the testing, this really, really, helps.

Hi @sgrogan
I'm trying to learn FEM module and I was using FC 0.17 latest and discovered this error
FEM module is build without NETGEN support

fem-module-netmesh-support.PNG (73.77 KiB) Viewed 2204 times

the stable FC0.16 doesn't make this error...
I discovered also that

Code: Select all

NETGENPlugin.dll

is missing in FC 017 bin dir, but copying it there from FC016 didn't solve the issue...

thanks again for support
Maurice
