ACTIX WEB HTTP2 & OPENSSL : not working exact example from actix.rs website

[letter-p]

What am I missing? Example : (https://actix.rs/docs/http2/)

Expected Behavior

Current Behavior

thread 'main' panicked at '||||error2: ErrorStack([Error { code: 2147483650, library: "system library", function: "file_ctrl", file: "../crypto/bio/bss_file.c", line: 297, data: "calling fopen(key.pem, r)" }, Error { code: 268959746, library: "BIO routines", function: "file_ctrl", reason: "system lib", file: "../crypto/bio/bss_file.c", line: 300 }, Error { code: 168296450, library: "SSL routines", function: "SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file", reason: "system lib", file: "../ssl/ssl_rsa.c", line: 367 }])', src/main.rs:132:10 note: run with RUST_BACKTRACE=1 environment variable to display a backtrace

"WEIRD" Behavior

• it works if I cargo run it inside the /src but not in the root

Steps to Reproduce

• Download OpenSSL inside windows 10 WSL Ubuntu linux (https://fedingo.com/how-to-install-openssl-in-ubuntu/)

• Cargo new testing

• toml file [dependencies] actix-web = { version = "4", features = ["openssl"] } openssl = { version = "0.10", features = ["v110"] }

• main.rs ``#[actix_web::main] async fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> { // load TLS keys // to create a self-signed temporary cert for testing: // openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -nodes -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem -days 365 -subj '/CN=localhost' let mut builder = SslAcceptor::mozilla_intermediate(SslMethod::tls()).unwrap(); builder .set_private_key_file("key.pem", SslFiletype::PEM) .unwrap(); builder.set_certificate_chain_file("cert.pem").unwrap();

  HttpServer::new(|| App::new().route("/", web::get().to(index))) .bind_openssl("127.0.0.1:8080", builder)? .run() .await }``

• Create the .pem files openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -nodes -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem -days 365 -subj '/CN=localhost'

Context

My Code

• Rust Version (I.e, output of rustc -V): rustc 1.64.0 (a55dd71d5 2022-09-19)
• Actix Web Version: version = "4"

AFAICT you created your key and certificate chain files in src/ and not in the root directory of your crate. If you update the file locations:

builder
    .set_private_key_file("src/key.pem", SslFiletype::PEM)
    .unwrap();
builder.set_certificate_chain_file("src/cert.pem").unwrap();

running cargo run from your crate's root should work? Could you please try this and tell us if this resolves your issue?

If I'm correct we could update the comment in the example to make it more explicit where to run the openssl command to generate the self-signed certificate (or where the files should be located).
