RE: OpenSSL@1.1 not getting linked with Homebrew - trying to install postgresql

[cecile rougnaux <cecile_rougnaux@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Adrian,

As suggested from another user, I am going to reinstall and upgrade my OS to Catalina, which is better supported. 

Then I will follow the steps with homebrew and hopefully this will clean the mess I am in 😉

Thanks for your answer!

My system is OS Mojave 10.14.6, I got homebrew from this command :

when I try to install postgresql with the command 

brew install postgresql

I have this error:

    Error: An exception occurred within a child process:

      RuntimeError: /usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1 not present or broken

    Please reinstall openssl@1.1. Sorry :(

When I try to install openssl@1.1 I have this message:

Note that the error message is literally asking you to:

brew reinstall openssl@1.1

not:

brew install openssl@1.1

and not:

brew reinstall openssl

Do the reinstall and see if the postgresql formula works now. If it still doesn't work, the Homebrew discussions forum is a more appropriate place to follow up: https://github.com/Homebrew/discussions/discussions

Also:

brew link openssl@1.1

and all the exports you said you added to your .zshrc should not be needed, so you should:

brew unlink openssl@1.1

and revert all your additions.
