openssl error - ubuntu

Chad

12/2/2006 12:13:00 PM

Help!

Why do I continually get the following error?

------------------------------------------------------------
irb(main):001:0> require 'openssl'
LoadError: no such file to load -- openssl
from (irb):1:in `require'
from (irb):1
------------------------------------------------------------

I've tried everything in every post about this. I've blown away my
ruby install like 6 times. How do I get ruby to recognize openssl?

I've installed:

ubuntu
ruby 1.8.5
libopenssl-ruby
libzlib-ruby
libyaml-ruby
libdrb-ruby
liberb-ruby
zlib1g-dev


Any suggestions?

Thank you,
Chad

do you have 'openssl' installed? try to install, libssl0.9.8 or highet
and libssl-dev.

Absolutely... I'm not a linux expert though, but I have a feeling
they're installing somewhere that ruby can't see them. What can I do
to ensure apt-get is behaving properly?


See below:

[/root] # apt-get install openssl
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
openssl is already the newest version.

[/root] # apt-get install libssl-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
libssl-dev is already the newest version.


Thank you,
Chad

I finally figured it out.

I cleaned out all the current openssl files, then took the ruby 1.8.5
source, went into the ruby-1.8.5/ext/openssl directory and created the
openssl make file:

ruby extconf.rb
make
make install

and that fiiiiinally but the libraries where they should go.

I've followed this, and I'm still stuck.

I've done the following:
sudo apt-get install openssl
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
sudo apt-get install libssl0.9.8

gone into /ext/openssl/ and run
ruby extconf.rb
cd ../..
make
make install

At least now all those commands work without failing to find openssl.
Still, though, running irb and calling "require 'openssl'" yeilds the
very frustrating "no such file to load -- libssl"

What else am I forgetting to check?

I solved my own problem: the make and make install should be run from
the ext/openssl/ directory (and it's fine if there's "nothing to do for
make").

This information helped me when I was struggling with this problem
today.
I registed into this forum , immediately, only to thank you.

Thanks a lot pal, it worked perfectly for me too. I had the same openssl
problem on a new ubuntu server box. Thanks for the tip.

So much for distribution's package managers making your life easier,

I don't think anybody reported a bug about that to Ubuntu or Debian. And
Ubuntu just imports the Ruby packages from Debian.

Also, it works perfectly fine here. On a clean Debian install:
apt-get install ruby libopenssl-ruby ; ruby -e 'require "openssl"'
doesn't raise any error.

If you can still reproduce this, I would be interested in the outputs of
"dpkg -l | grep ruby" and "dpkg -L libopenssl-ruby1.8" on your system.
