ImportError: pycurl: libcurl link-time ssl backend (openssl) is different from compile-time ssl backend (none/other)

Any help?

$ python3 handler.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "handler.py", line 5, in

File "/Users/../../JSParser/safeurl.py", line 17, in

Assuming you're on macOS (High Sierra) check the following link - worked for me.

Essentially:
$ brew reinstall openssl
$ pip uninstall pycurl
$ pip install --install-option="--with-openssl" --install-option="--openssl-dir=/usr/local/opt/openssl" pycurl

I'm assuming you've ran setup.py before - if you do
$ python handler.py

Should work now.

Hi @Regala I can't uninsatall pycurl on my device I'm getting the error

Cannot uninstall 'pycurl'. It is a distutils installed project and thus we cannot accurately determine which files belong to it which would lead to only a partial uninstall.

Use

sudo pip uninstall pycurl

For those who can't fix this on MacOS:

brew install pipenv
pipenv shell
export CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include
export LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib
pip install pycurl --global-option="--with-openssl"

Hi @sawzeeyy I'm pretty sure

Wow @sawzeeyy
My hard change finally Successfully

• remove existing pycurl installation
  pip3 uninstall pycurl

• export variable with your link-time ssl backend (which is openssl above)
  export PYCURL_SSL_LIBRARY=openssl

• then, re-install pycurl with no cache
  pip3 install pycurl --no-cache-dir

next question😂

if you use “pip install pycurl" in your anaconda virtulenvironment this problem may occur,i use "conda install pycurl",then this problem is solved
