Receiving 'Error detecting the version of libcrypto' when connecting to Django

[msalbego93]

Python version= 3.8.17
I am running Django 4.1.10 and django-snowflake =4.1b1. After setting my settings.py DATABASES with the right credentials and running python manage.py runserver I get the following error :

raise LibraryNotFoundError('Error detecting the version of libcrypto')
oscrypto.errors.LibraryNotFoundError: Error detecting the version of libcrypto

my pip freeze looks like this

asgiref==3.7.2 asn1crypto==1.5.1 backports.zoneinfo==0.2.1 binutils==0.2.dev0 certifi==2023.7.22 cffi==1.15.1 charset-normalizer==3.2.0 cryptography==41.0.3 Django==4.1.10 django-snowflake==4.1b1 filelock==3.12.2 idna==3.4 oscrypto==1.3.0 packaging==23.1 platformdirs==3.8.1 pycparser==2.21 pycryptodomex==3.18.0 PyJWT==2.8.0 pyOpenSSL==23.2.0 pytz==2023.3 requests==2.31.0 snowflake-connector-python==3.1.0 sortedcontainers==2.4.0 sqlparse==0.4.4 tomlkit==0.12.1 typing_extensions==4.7.1 urllib3==1.26.16

what should be the cause of this?

Edit: Also tested with pyOpenSSL (23.1.1, 23.1.0, 22.0.0)

Thank you

The error doesn't come from django-snowflake. A web search for the error message led to wbond/oscrypto#75.
