Hello,

I have just installed curator 5.4 (elasticsearch-curator-5.4.1-1.x86\_64.rpm) but I can't launch anything.

I created simple config file below :

# Remember, leave a key empty if there is no value. None will be a string,

# # not a Python "NoneType"

client:  
hosts: XXX  
port: 9200  
url\_prefix:  
use\_ssl: False  
certificate:  
client\_cert:  
client\_key:  
ssl\_no\_validate: False  
http\_auth:  
timeout: 30  
master\_only: False

logging:  
loglevel: DEBUG  
logfile: /data.di/curator/logs  
logformat: default  
blacklist: ['elasticsearch', 'urllib3']

The error I have when I launch curator\_cli :

```
curator --help
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/buh/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/cx_Freeze/initscripts/ __startup__.py", line 14, in run

```

OS : RHEL 7.3  
python version : 2.7.5  
elasticsearch version : 6.0.1

Anyone has already had this problem ?

Regards

Yes, it's a [known issue](https://github.com/elastic/curator/issues/1124). You need to upgrade your OpenSSL package to 1.0.2, and then Curator will work.

The next release will hopefully add this dependency properly, preventing what you're experiencing.
