WEBrick::HTTPServer and SSL

Mike Houghton

2/2/2007 11:31:00 AM

As a newbie this might be useful to other newbies...


I needed to run a WEBrick::HTTPServer using SSL.

First thing to do is visit
http://www.eclectica.ca/howto/ssl-cert...
Just follow the steps in the summary if you are in a hurry.

Once you have the files as described then the following code loads up
the cert and key and runs in SSL mode. It's only demo code but is a
reasonable starting point for running up a browser with an https://...
url.

Firefox 1.5.0.3 and IE 6.0 work fine against it - but for some reason
FireFox 2 has problems - but I'm sure it's just a Firefox config issue.

=============================================================
#!/usr/local/bin/ruby


require 'webrick'
require 'webrick/https'
require 'openssl'


pkey = cert = cert_name = nil
begin
pkey =
OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new(File.open("/home/mhoughton/sslcert/key.pem").read)
cert =
OpenSSL::X509::Certificate.new(File.open("/home/mhoughton/sslcert/cert.pem").read)
rescue
$stderr.puts "Switching to use self-signed certificate"
cert_name = [ ["C","JP"], ["O","WEBrick.Org"], ["CN", "WWW"] ]
end


s=WEBrick::HTTPServer.new(

:Port => 8080,
:Logger => WEBrick::Log::new($stderr, WEBrick::Log::DEBUG),
:DocumentRoot => "/usr/local/webrick/htdocs",
:SSLEnable => true,
:SSLVerifyClient => OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE,
:SSLCertificate => cert,
:SSLPrivateKey => pkey,
:SSLCertName => cert_name
)
s.start


=============================================================

Your flippant answer gives us no way for us to help you sort out your
alleged problems with Firefox, so please stop wasting our time. Thanks.
