I want to use Internet Identity locally when developing but when creating a new identity I get the following error:

Any hint is appreciated!

That’s a dfx v0.14.2 issue that have already been reported. You can downgrade dfx or try the beta of v0.14.3 to solve the problem.

> We’ve released (not yet promoted) dfx 0.14.3-beta.0 to address this issue. It incorporates release candidate replica at commit 0ab9178c6684f122ae713928b3664c33a697e9c4. One relevant change is the removal of openssl as a dependency from signature verification. DFX\_VERSION=0.14.3-beta.0 sh -ci "$(curl -fsSL https://internetcomputer.org/install.sh)"
