openssl on Red Hat not installed

Hueen Hueen

12/20/2006 7:25:00 PM

So I'm one of the unlucky ones that don't have openssl properly
installed in ruby. I am running red hat. Some info:


`require': no such file to load -- openssl (LoadError)

[root@lnn607 ~]# rpm -qa|grep -i openssl
pyOpenSSL-0.6-1.p23
xmlsec1-openssl-1.2.6-3
openssl-0.9.7a-43.14


I tried to install all kinds veriations of package names with yum, such
as libopenssl, openssl-src, ruby-openssl, ruby-libopenssl etc etc, nut
couldnt find any.
I then downloaded the libopenssl-ruby source files (which actually are
for debian i think) and copied the .rb files into
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8, but then it complained that it cannot find
openssl.so.
So how do I get the openssl source files installed so that it works in
ruby?

Thanks for any help!

Look for a package named openssl-dev or openssl-devel
and install them.
These contain the necessary C header files for Ruby to link against
the Openssl libs.
Hope that helps,

I have a similar problem on my Ubuntu Dapper box:

>> require 'openssl'
=> false

despite I have all the ruby libs and libssl stuff installed.

do you have rubygems installed ?
I think I recall the default behavior of require would change when
using rubygems on certain platforms.

have you tried
sudo apt-get install libopenssl-ruby
?

This clearly needs to be an FAQ: When require returns false that means
that the required library has already been loaded. It does not mean that
require failed. When require fails it raises LoadError.

Yes, but ruby openssl was installed not by gem but by the
libopenssl-ruby package.

almost there.

yum did find openssl-devel, but could not satisfy the zlib dependancy.
needs 1.1.4, my installed version was too new. rpm -i --force did the
job and openssl-devel installed successfully.
on the ruby side i have to do everything manually. copied the openssl
ruby files as well as openssl.so into /usr/lib/ruby/1.8


now i can start my script, but at some point it fails:

/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/net/protocol.rb:66:in `closed?': undefined
method `closed?' for #<OpenSSL::SSL::SSLSocket:0xb7e35474>
(NoMethodError)

does that mean my net/protocol.rb is outdated? yum tells me i have the
newest ruby version installed
ruby 1.8.5 (2006-12-04 patchlevel 2) [i686-linux]

any ideas?
