What is your question?

I am running the test in Fedora 40 and got this error. I do have "libcrypto.so.1.1" installed

Starting the MongoMemoryServer Instance failed, enable debug log for more information. Error:

if that error is present, then you either dont have it installed, or it is not available to be found. you can check with ldconfig -p | grep libcrypto.

I get the following result by running the given command: $ldconfig -p | grep libcrypto
libcrypto.so.3 (libc6,x86-64) => /lib64/libcrypto.so.3
libcrypto.so.1.1 (libc6) => /lib/libcrypto.so.1.1
libcrypto.so (libc6,x86-64) => /lib64/libcrypto.so

if that is your output and you are not running mongodb-memory-server / the resulting started binary in a separate environment, i dont know what could be wrong with linking, maybe it would help to have the full debug log?
