Description

Our working code has been throwing error on latest version of Fedora 36. Same error is also observed on Ubuntu 22.04 under WSL2.

Error Stack:
Error: error:25066067:DSO support routines:dlfcn_load:could not load the shared library
    at Sign.sign (node:internal/crypto/sig:131:29)

return jwt.sign in following code snippet represents line number 8 in jwt.service.js from above error.

generateToken: (payload, { expiresIn = null } = {}) => {
    return jwt.sign(payload, privateKey, {
      algorithm: "RS256",
      ...(expiresIn ? { expiresIn } : {}),
    });
  },

Environment

• Version Used: ^8.5.1
• OS: Linux fedora 5.17.5-300.fc36.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Apr 28 15:51:30 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
• Node: v16.15.0

I am guessing it has something to do with Node.js, OpenSSL and latest kernel. But positing here hoping someone can guide me in right direction to fix this.

had the same exact problem. eventually I figured out that with openssl v3 you need to use node v18

Thanks for above link. For now I just used OPENSSL_CONF=/dev/null and it worked fine. Later I will try with v18 also.
