error: 'mbedtls_md5_starts_ret' was not declared in this scope; did you mean 'mbedtls_md5_starts'?

Hi,

I use lastest library version on Arduino IDE 2.2.1, with ESP32 wroom32, when I compile I get many errors.

First lines starting with :

d:\Mega\� Arduino\libraries\ESPAsyncWebServer\src\WebAuthentication.cpp: In function 'bool getMD5(uint8_t*, uint16_t, char*)':
d:\Mega\� Arduino\libraries\ESPAsyncWebServer\src\WebAuthentication.cpp:74:3: error: 'mbedtls_md5_starts_ret' was not declared in this scope; did you mean 'mbedtls_md5_starts'?
74 | mbedtls_md5_starts_ret(&_ctx);
.....

Best regards,
Laurent

Apply this pull request to the lib: #1351

Or use this fork for now while @me-no-dev has the opportunity to review the library: https://github.com/blackhack/ESPAsyncWebServer.git
Besides from the build errors, I fixed a crash that most likely will affect you.

Thank you very much blackhack, you did a good job.

I had exactly the same issue. The error also got reported to me.

I changed the following lines of code:

Then it worked.

Using recent PlatformIO with ESP32 core v2.
Got an error in WebAuthentication.cpp:
mbedtls_md5_starts(&_ctx); does not exist.
Replaced with mbedtls_md5_starts_ret(&_ctx); and it compiles fine.

I got this problem when building WebSocket server on ESP32. It turned out I installed the wrong library. So just change the library, problem solved
