How can I install it for Ruby 1.8.7?

bash-3.2# gem install smtp_tls

    ERROR:  Error installing smtp_tls:

smtp_tls requires Ruby version ~> 1.8.6.0

bash-3.2# ruby -version

    ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-08 patchlevel 173) [i686-linux]

you don’t need to. 1.8.7 and up already support smtp+tls.

demas@arch ~/sources/study/ruby $ cat smtp_test.rb
require ‘smtp_tls’

puts “hello”
demas@arch ~/sources/study/ruby $ ruby smtp_test.rb
smtp_test.rb:1:in `require’: no such file to load – smtp_tls
(LoadError)
from smtp_test.rb:1

a) you didn’t require ‘rubygems’
b) you don’t need to require ‘smtp_tls’ on ruby 1.8.7+. Just use
Net::SMTP’s TLS support like you normally would
c) Hint:

require ‘net/smtp’
begin
require ‘smtp_tls’
rescue LoadError
end

smtp = Net::SMTP.new address, port
smtp.enable_starttls
smtp.start Socket.gethostname, user, password, authentication do |
server|
server.send_message message, from, to
end

Hi,
I did the example and got this error:

uninitialized constant Net::SMTP::OpenSSL

the error occurs when run smtp.enable_starttls

Same hit?

Do you have openssl?

$ ruby -ropenssl -e ‘puts “I have OpenSSL!”’
I have OpenSSL!

require ‘net/smtp’
begin
require ‘smtp_tls’
rescue LoadError
end

smtp = Net::SMTP.new address, port
smtp.enable_starttls
smtp.start Socket.gethostname, user, password, authentication do |
server|
server.send_message message, from, to
end

I did the example and got this error:

uninitialized constant Net::SMTP::OpenSSL

the error occurs when run smtp.enable_starttls

Thanks Eric.

I got “no such file to load – openssl (LoadError)”

Then I used (on ubuntu 9.4):

sudo apt-get install libopenssl-ruby libssl0.9.8

And Not resolved.

I’m using ruby 1.9.1p0.

Eric,

I removed ruby 1.9 and used apt-get to install 1.8.7 with libs:

$ sudo apt-get install ruby irb rdoc rake rubygems libopenssl-ruby1.8
libssl0.9.8

That works!!!

Thanks

You’re probably not using the smtp_tls gem then:

$ gem list -dr smtp_tls

Hi Eric,

Excuse me my poor english. I tried to say when I uninstall ruby 1.9 and
reinstalled using apt-get to ruby 1.8.7, the problem was resolved. Now
with ‘gem list -dr smtp_tls’ like you sugested, I have the message
above, than, thats all right.

Thank you very much.
