azure-pipelines-agent: The type initializer for 'System.Net.Http.CurlHandler' threw an exception for Openssl 1.0.2h

The type initializer for 'System.Net.Http.CurlHandler' threw an exception

I do not think this is not a duplicate of #110 because my OpenSSL version is 1.0.2h

Mac OS X 10.11.4

 SGIs-Mac-mini:myagent clientuseme$ openssl version
OpenSSL 1.0.2h  3 May 2016

Is there something I am missing?

It seems to be related to the latest version of brew. Link command does not work for OpenSSL saying:

Warning: Refusing to link: openssl Linking keg-only openssl means you may end up linking against the insecure, deprecated system OpenSSL while using the headers from Homebrew’s openssl.

The resolution is the following:

brew update brew install openssl ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib /usr/local/lib/ ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libssl.1.0.0.dylib /usr/local/lib/

After these steps, dotnet core restore works as expected and no more type initialization errors…

that worked have a new one:

Enter personal access token > **************************************************** Connecting to server … ./config.sh: line 29: 3096 Segmentation fault: 11 ./bin/Agent.Listener configure “$@”

the above one is an existing issue I replaced the .dll and it worked. thanks for the help looks like I’m good.

Also, can you make sure you ran both commands? Fx team said this could happen if second one isn’t run

brew install openssl
brew link --force openssl
