Jest-mongo and Ubuntu 22.04

Michael_Cole · January 15, 2023, 2:01am

Hi, jest is a test framework with almost 4 million public repos on github.

Jest has instructions to use MongoMemoryServer for testing:

Unfortunately, it doesn’t work on Ubuntu 22.04 because of a libcrypto problem:

github.com/shelfio/jest-mongodb

StdoutInstanceError: Instance failed to start because a library is missing or cannot be opened: "libcrypto.so.1.1"

Hi, cool project. I tried using it, but got an error. I googled for some ways …to install libcrypto, but nothing worked. I'm using Ubuntu 22.04 Here's the error: ``` Determining test suites to run...Starting the MongoMemoryServer Instance failed, enable debug log for more information. Error: StdoutInstanceError: Instance failed to start because a library is missing or cannot be opened: "libcrypto.so.1.1" at MongoInstance.checkErrorInLine (/home/michael/casefile/node_modules/mongodb-memory-server-core/lib/util/MongoInstance.js:368:62) at MongoInstance.stderrHandler (/home/michael/casefile/node_modules/mongodb-memory-server-core/lib/util/MongoInstance.js:290:14) at Socket.emit (node:events:513:28) at addChunk (node:internal/streams/readable:324:12) at readableAddChunk (node:internal/streams/readable:297:9) at Readable.push (node:internal/streams/readable:234:10) at Pipe.onStreamRead (node:internal/stream_base_commons:190:23) ● Test suite failed to run Jest: Got error running globalSetup - /home/michael/casefile/node_modules/@shelf/jest-mongodb/lib/setup.js, reason: Instance failed to start because a library is missing or cannot be opened: "libcrypto.so.1.1" at MongoInstance.checkErrorInLine (../node_modules/mongodb-memory-server-core/lib/util/MongoInstance.js:368:62) at MongoInstance.stderrHandler (../node_modules/mongodb-memory-server-core/lib/util/MongoInstance.js:290:14) ``` This repo is a good reproduction of the libcrypto problem on Ubuntu 22.04. I tried changing the version to 5.0.14 and same-same. https://github.com/renatops1991/clean-code-api What am I missing? I have mongo running in a docker instance - that would be so much easier and more secure to deploy than downloading the images - is that a possibility? Thank you! p.s. I cross posted here: https://www.mongodb.com/community/forums/t/jest-mongo-and-ubuntu-22-04/208722

How can I get a libcrypto that Mongo likes on Ubuntu?

Or what is jest-mongo missing to work?

Here is someone elses github project that reproduces the issue: GitHub - renatopsdev/clean-code-api: This is an API developed during the course "Rest API NodeJs using TDD, Clean Architecture and Typescript"

Thank you!

MongoDB 6.0.3 supports Ubuntu 22.04 but the documentation has not been updated to reflect this.
