Nginx-tests stream_ssl_conf_command.t test hanging indefinitely

Fri Jan 26 01:14:56 UTC 2024

Hey Maxim,

Thanks, I installed homebrew’s Perl and all these tests are passing now, woohoo!

However a few others are failing now including ssl_ocsp.t and ssl_verify_depth.t, failing 13/17 and 3/11 tests respectively with the same error:

```
#   Failed test 'verify depth 2 - end'
#   at ssl_verify_depth.t line 169.
#                   'HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
# Server: nginx/1.24.0
# Date: Fri, 26 Jan 2024 01:08:10 GMT
# Content-Type: text/html
# Content-Length: 215
# Connection: close
# X-Client: CN=end
# X-Verify: FAILED:unsuitable certificate purpose
#
# <html>
# <head><title>400 The SSL certificate error</title></head>
# <body>
# <center><h1>400 Bad Request</h1></center>
# <center>The SSL certificate error</center>
# <hr><center>nginx/1.24.0</center>
# </body>
# </html>
# '
#     doesn't match '(?^:SUCCESS)'
```

Originally the SSL tests were being skipped due to the absence of “socket_ssl”, so I had to manually install IO::Socket::SSL using cpan:

```
"Module" IO::Socket::SSL
    *   "installed into:
        /opt/homebrew/Cellar/perl/5.38.2_1/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.38"

    *   "LINKTYPE: dynamic"

    *   "VERSION: 2.085"

    *   "EXE_FILES: "
```

Could the error above be another perl issue?

Hey Sergey,

Thanks for the help. I tried installing perl via homebrew but I ran into some dependency issues setting it up, and by the time I did set it up, it was skipping due to “# SKIP no http_ssl available”.

Is there a set of instructions or documentation for setting up a Mac environment for nginx-tests? I might be setting up perl wrong.

Perl from macOS base system (/usr/bin/perl) is known to be buggy
for some unknown reason.  This is expressed in various hangs when
running nginx-tests.  I saw similar reports since at least macOS
12.3.1, and this is not caused by a particular Perl version (same
version from macports works for me).  You can try Perl from homebrew
or macports collections, it should work just fine.
