RHEL7安装openssl：解决the ssl module in Python is not available问题

我的系统是RHEL7，改了Centos的yum源，安装python3后发现ssl经常出问题，pip无法从网站下载第三方库，常出现以下这种类型的提示：

[root@localhost ~]# pip3 install virtualenv
pip is configured with locations that require TLS/SSL, however the ssl module in Python is not available.
Collecting virtualenv
Retrying (Retry(total=4, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None)) after connection broken by 'SSLError("Can't connect to HTTPS URL because the SSL module is not available.")': /simple/virtualenv/
Retrying (Retry(total=3, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None)) after connection broken by 'SSLError("Can't connect to HTTPS URL because the SSL module is not available.")': /simple/virtualenv/

原因是所有openssl的版本为OpenSSL 1.0.1e-fips 11 Feb 2013,而python3.7需要的openssl的版本为1.0.2或者1.1.x，需要对openssl进行升级，并重新编译python3.7.6。

从https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.1.1-pre8.tar.gz下载openssl-1.1.1-pre8.tar.gz以后，将压缩包解压后放入/usr/local/目录下。然后切换目录：

[root@linuxprobe 桌面]# cd /usr/local/openssl-1.1.1-pre8/

然后编译到/usr/目录下：

[root@linuxprobe openssl-1.1.1-pre8]# ./config --prefix=/usr/ no-zlib

编译并安装：

[root@linuxprobe openssl-1.1.1-pre8]# make && make install

得益于我们选择的安装路径/usr/，很多配置全省了。现在查一下openssl的版本：

[root@linuxprobe lib]# openssl version
OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre8 (beta) 20 Jun 2018

成功。现在重新安装python3.7.6就行了。
