OPENSSL_Uplink(54256568,08): no OPENSSL_Applink in Kafka Consumer -python

Question

I'm trying to consume Kafka message using Confluent Kafka with SSL in python using below code:

try:    

        consumer_config = {
            'bootstrap.servers': 'bootstrap server details',
            'security.protocol': 'SSL',
            'ssl.keystore.location': 'path to .p12 file',
            'ssl.keystore.password': 'password',
            'ssl.ca.location': 'Path to pem file',
            'group.id': 'group id' ,
            'auto.offset.reset': 'earliest'           
        }

        consumer = Consumer(consumer_config)
        consumer.subscribe(topic)

        try:
            while True:
                print("Listening")
                # read single message at a time
                msg = consumer.poll(0)

                if msg is None:
                    time.sleep(5)
                    continue
                if msg.error():
                    print("Error reading message : {}".format(msg.error()))
                    continue
               
                print(msg)
                consumer.commit()

        except Exception as ex:
            print("Kafka Exception : {}", ex)

        finally:
            print("closing consumer")
            consumer.close()

    except Exception as e:
         print(e)
         logger.error("Error while consuming Kafka message!!") 

     

I'm getting an error saying :

OPENSSL_Uplink(54256568,08): no OPENSSL_Applink

Is the code which I have written above incorrect. Can anyone correct me what am I doing wrong.
Many thanks.

PS: I have searched with this error online but couldn't find any relevant solution.
