Openssl error

Help!

I am one problem away from launching our new rails app. Sorry if this
isn’t totally a rails question but my whole app is dependent on it and
this group has been helpful.

Does anyone know why I continually get the following error?


irb(main):001:0> require ‘openssl’
LoadError: no such file to load – openssl
from (irb):1:in `require’
from (irb):1

I’ve read every post on the internet about this. I’ve blown away my
ruby install like 6 times. But I think apt-get is putting my libraries
somewhere that ruby isn’t seeing them…? How can I check?

I’ve installed:

Ubuntu 6.10
ruby 1.8.5
openssl
libssl-dev
libopenssl-ruby
libzlib-ruby
libyaml-ruby
libdrb-ruby
liberb-ruby
zlib1g-dev

Any suggestions?

Thank you,
Chad
