Install question RE:ruby-1.8.6, rubygems-1.2.0, rails, mongrel on redhat 4

[bishop]

I’m working to get Rails properly configured and running on a GNU/
Linux RedHat4 server. I’ve been through many, many of the online
documentation sets, and am still stuck on a couple of things, namely
running mongrel throws errors concerning openssl.

I’ve been through the cycle of using rpms, using gems, using source
directly, and have made the most progress using source. I’ve managed
to get ruby to “see” zlib, which was holding me back, for quite a
while.

Here are my steps, as it stands today. I’d appreciate any assistance.

Here are my machine specs:
uname -a
Linux ???.???.??? 2.6.9-67.0.15.ELsmp #1 SMP Tue Apr 22 13:58:43
EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I compile ruby-1.8.6 this way:
./configure --with-openssl=/lib64 --with-zlib --with-readline=/usr/lib

I am reasonably sure that the --with-zlib works because this returns
“success”:
ruby -rzlib -e “puts :success”

success

However, these don’t work:
ruby -ropenssl -e “puts :success”

ruby: no such file to load – openssl (LoadError)

ruby -rreadline -e “puts :success”

ruby: no such file to load – readline (LoadError)

I also followed steps to manually compile the ext/openssl directory:
ruby extconf.rb

=== OpenSSL for Ruby configurator ===
=== Checking for system dependent stuff… ===
checking for t_open() in -lnsl… no
checking for socket() in -lsocket… no
checking for assert.h… yes
=== Checking for required stuff… ===
checking for openssl/ssl.h… no
=== Checking for required stuff failed. ===
Makefile wasn’t created. Fix the errors above.

Here is the contents of the mkmf.log found under ext/openssl:

***** END mkmf.log *****

The reason why I compile ruby-1.8.6 this way:
./configure --with-openssl=/lib64 --with-zlib --with-readline=/usr/lib

is because I find the following files under /lib64:
ls /lib64/ssl

/lib64/libssl.so.0.9.7a /lib64/libssl.so.4

and I find the following files under /usr/lib:
ls /usr/lib/line

/usr/lib/libguilereadline-v-12.a /usr/lib/libguilereadline-v-12.so.12 /usr/lib/libreadline.so.4.3
/usr/lib/libguilereadline-v-12.la /usr/lib/libguilereadline-v-12.so.12.3.0
/usr/lib/libguilereadline-v-12.so /usr/lib/libreadline.so.4

I can successfully compile rubygems:

= Announce: RubyGems Release 1.2.0

Release 1.2.0 adds new features and fixes some bugs.

New features:

• RubyGems no longer performs bulk updates and instead only fetches
  the gemspec
  files it needs. Alternate sources will need to upgrade to RubyGems
  1.2 to
  allow RubyGems to take advantage of the new metadata updater. If a
  pre 1.2
  remote source is in the sources list, RubyGems will revert to the
  bulk update
  code for compatibility.
• RubyGems now has runtime and development dependency types. Use
  #add_development_dependency and #add_runtime_dependency. All
  typeless
  dependencies are considered to be runtime dependencies.
• RubyGems will now require rubygems/defaults/operating_system.rb and
  rubygems/defaults/#{RBX_ENGINE}.rb if they exist. This allows
  packagers and
  ruby implementers to add custom behavior to RubyGems via these
  files. (If
  the RubyGems API is insufficient, please suggest improvements via
  the
  RubyGems list.)
• /etc/gemrc (and windows equivalent) for global settings
• setup.rb now handles --vendor and --destdir for packagers
• gem stale command that lists gems by last access time

Bugs Fixed:

• File modes from gems are now honored, patch #19737
• Marshal Gem::Specification objects from the future can now be
  loaded.
• A trailing / is now added to remote sources when missing, bug #20134
• Gems with legacy platforms will now be correctly uninstalled, patch
  #19877
• gem install --no-wrappers followed by gem install --wrappers no
  longer
  overwrites executables
• gem pristine now forces reinstallation of gems, bug #20387
• RubyGems gracefully handles ^C while loading .gemspec files from
  disk, bug
  #20523
• Paths are expanded in more places, bug #19317, bug #19896
• Gem::DependencyInstaller resets installed gems every install, bug
  #19444
• Gem.default_path is now honored if GEM_PATH is not set, patch #19502

Other Changes Include:

• setup.rb
  • stub files created by RubyGems 0.7.x and older are no longer
    removed. When
    upgrading from these ancient versions, upgrade to 1.1.x first to
    clean up
    stubs.
  • RDoc is no longer required until necessary, patch #20414
• gem server
  • Now completely matches the output of gem generate_index and
    has correct content types
  • Refreshes from source directories for every hit. The server will
    no longer
    need to be restarted after installing gems.
• gem query --details and friends now display author, homepage,
  rubyforge url
  and installed location
• gem install without -i no longer reinstalls dependencies if they
  are in
  GEM_PATH but not in GEM_HOME
• Gem::RemoteFetcher now performs persistent connections for HEAD
  requests,
  bug #7973

change, see
the ChangeLog file.

Special thanks to Chad Wooley for backwards compatibility testing and
Luis
Lavena for continuing windows support.

== How can I get RubyGems?

NOTE: If you have installed RubyGems using a package system you may
want to
install a new RubyGems through the same packaging system.

If you have a recent version of RubyGems (0.8.5 or later), then all
you need to do is:

$ gem update --system (you might need to be admin/root)

(Note: You may have to run the command twice if you have any previosly
installed rubygems-update gems).

If you have an older version of RubyGems installed, then you can still
do it in two steps:

$ gem install rubygems-update (again, might need to be admin/root)
$ update_rubygems (… here too)

If you don’t have any gems install, there is still the pre-gem
approach to getting software … doing it manually:

1. DOWNLOAD FROM: http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=126
2. UNPACK INTO A DIRECTORY AND CD THERE
3. INSTALL WITH: ruby setup.rb (you may need admin/root privilege)

== To File Bugs

The RubyGems bug tracker can be found on RubyForge at:
http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=add&group_id=126&atid=575

When filing a bug, gem env output will be helpful in diagnosing the
issue.

If you find a bug where RubyGems crashes, please provide debug output.
You can
do that with gem --debug the_command.

== Thanks

Keep those gems coming!

RubyGems installed the following executables:
/usr/local/bin/gem

If gem was installed by a previous RubyGems installation, you may
need
to remove it by hand.

It’s frustrating, because OpenSSL is installed, and apparently
working, at least on some level:

I’ve looked through numerous sites on how to set this up, and I’m
getting pretty frustrated. I installed this successfully on another
machine, also RedHat 4, but the same instructions just don’t seem to
work. I believe it has to do with the way that openssl and other
various utils were installed by the person who set the machine up (I
was only brought in when they couldn’t get rails working). I know
there are many postings about install problems, but if anyone could
help me I would really appreciate it.
