"ERROR:root:code for hash md5 was not found" when using any hg mercurial commands


When trying to use any hg Mercurial commands on the console, I keep getting this error. I installed Python using Homebrew and I am running Mac OS Catalina v. 10.15.1.

Any reference would be appreciated. Here is the error I'm getting:

hg commit --amend

I also tried following the instruction on this issue but none of the solutions seem to work

brew link openssl --force
Warning: Refusing to link macOS-provided software: openssl@1.1
If you need to have openssl@1.1 first in your PATH run:
  echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc

For compilers to find openssl@1.1 you may need to set:
  export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/lib"
  export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/include"

For pkg-config to find openssl@1.1 you may need to set:
  export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/lib/pkgconfig"

Solution

  • Running brew reinstall python@2 didn't work for my existing Python 2.7 virtual environments. Inside them there were still ERROR:root:code for hash sha1 was not found errors.

    I encountered this problem after I ran brew upgrade openssl. And here's the fix:

    $ ls /usr/local/Cellar/openssl
    

    ...which shows

    1.0.2t
    

    According to the existing version, run:

    $ brew switch openssl 1.0.2t
    

    ...which shows

    Cleaning /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2t
    Opt link created for /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2t
    

    After that, run the following command in a Python 2.7 virtualenv:

    (my-venv) $ python -c "import hashlib;m=hashlib.md5();print(m.hexdigest())"
    

    ...which shows

    d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e
    

    No more errors.
