Troubleshooting SSL certificates, Ruby, Mac OS X Yosemite

Question

On OS X Mavericks, I am getting the following error from my Ruby programs when I try to connect to various APIs:

Seahorse::Client::NetworkingError: SSL_conne         


        

Answer 1

In my case the problem was the following:

• Ruby installed as a binary with RVM assumed OpenSSL is in /etc/openssl
• OpenSSL had been installed with Homebrew to /usr/local/etc/openssl

=> Mismatch; and symlinking /etc/openssl -> /usr/local/etc/openssl did not help.

Compile RVM Ruby from sources: rvm install VERSION --disable-binary

After that, make sure your certificates are up-to-date: rvm osx-ssl-certs update
