You need to be more specific as to which steps you've followed. You're using Homebrew as documented in build-osx.md? What MacOSX version?

I installed library mention in build-osx.md, and all configure was passed. But there was error in link bitcoind excutable. I am using MacBook Air MacOS Sierra 10.12.4

Can you post your config.log somewhere? Can you also do a make clean and a make V=1 and post the pastebin of that output?

config.txt

I believe this is fixable by giving the location of the boost library in the ./configure step using the --with-boost-libdir=LIB_DIR parameter (just find the lib directory of boost on your machine), try that and let us know how it goes. If it works maybe we should add a note to the build instructions for others with this issue?

@MeshCollider Yes, I install two version of boost, but not that problem. The reason is that I installed openssl manual, there are two version of openssl, linker get the wrong dylib, maybe the library version has been changed.

Hi @zhci! I'm suffering the same problem with you. After make V=1, it complains:

There are many versions of openssl(1.0.2f 1.0.2g 1.0.2j 1.0.2k 1.0.2l 1.0.2m 1.0.2n 1.0.2o_1) in the directory(/usr/local/Cellar/openssl). I don't know why I have so many versions, maybe I install them to try to solve problems before. As the complain says, it links to 1.0.2o_1, so I cd the path, and grep all of the undefined symbols one by one

➜  1.0.2o_1 grep _RAND_cleanup ./ -rn
Binary file .//bin/openssl matches
Binary file .//lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib matches
Binary file .//lib/libcrypto.a matches
Binary file .//lib/libcrypto.dylib matches

It seams that all the undefined symbols are exists. I have no idea now. Could you tell me how to solve this problem?

@YG-FLUSH: Looks like you have misconfigured openssl installation. Try to remove all existing openssl versions with Homebrew and other package managers like "MacPorts". Try to install the version(s) you want. Run ./configure again.

@jonasschnelli Thanks for your response. It doesn't work for me ! Here are the commands I tried:

brew uninstall openssl --ignore-dependencies
brew uninstall --force openssl  // delete all the versions, the whole openssl path were auto delete after executed this command.
brew install openssl // openssl/1.0.2o_1 exists again, and now there is only this version. 

After openssl reinstalled , I have retried make clean && ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make. But it complained the same error again.

Can you pastbin your config.log? Have you looked for other package managers like macports?

@jonasschnelli It works!!!! I removed openssl and installed it using macports. Everything works well! Thank you very much!

Undefined symbols such as “_CRYPTO_num_locks” exist only in openssl1.0, not in openssl1.1. If a openssl1.1 was installed under /usr/local/lib and -L/usr/local/lib happens to stand before -L/usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2o/lib, then the linker will find and use the openssl1.1 following the search_libaray_paths. In openssl1.1, these symbols are undefined. Macports happens to overwrite the openssl1.1 library. @jonasschnelli @YG-FLUSH
