Openssl en MacOS X

Rails
1

Hello,

I would like to install Openssl on a ruby install MacOs X

Which one is the one to go for ? (I want to use it for gmail)

How do I install it ? maybe it is so easy that I do not find any
explanation on the web…

I downloaded several openssl gems to my laptop…

How to install ? Is there a tutorial somewhere…

As you understood I am a MacUser but I am lacking Unix knowledge so the
terminal isn’t really my favorite app…

Thanks for helping out,

Secufa

I would like to install Openssl on a ruby install MacOs X

OS X comes with the openssl library installed I think. Try ‘man
openssl’.

Ok, but then how do I get a library in my Rails application, from what I
could see in some tutorials online, there should be a library installed
in the lib folder, but how do I do this ??

Thank you very much !

Hi, you’ll need to do the following in your Ruby application to acces
the interface:

require ‘openssl’

Good luck,

Thank you very much for your help !

I still have the following problem :

When I would like to configure actionmailer to use a gmail account
the Ruby server crashes as soon as I activate the following line :

‘require smtp_tls’

in environment.rb although I have put the smtp_tls file in the ‘lib’
folder…

(I was trying to follow this tutorial :
http://blog.pomozov.info/posts/how-to-send-actionmailer-mails-to-gmailcom.html
)

Has anyone an idea ???

Thanks in advance !

This is the output I get :

xxx:~$ /home/xxx/apps/dir/public/…/config/
environment.rb:8:in `require’: no such file to load – smtp_tls
(LoadError)
from /home/xxx/apps/dir/public/…/config/

xxx: (mod_fastcgi.c.1055) if you try do run PHP as
FastCGI backend make sure you use the FastCGI enabled version.
You can find out if it is the right one by executing ‘php -v’ and it
should display ‘(cgi-fcgi)’ in the output, NOT (cgi) NOR (cli)
For more information check http://www.lighttpd.net/documentation/
fastcgi.html#preparing-php-as-a-fastcgi-program
xxx: (mod_fastcgi.c.1060) If this is PHP on Gentoo
add fastcgi to the USE flags

Going down.

It’s already installed.
Here’s how I used it (I found this somewhere.)

require ‘socket’
require ‘openssl’

socket = TCPSocket.new(“www.url.net”)
ssl_context = OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext.new()
unless ssl_context.verify_mode
warn “warning: peer certificate won’t be verified this session.”
ssl_context.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
end
sslsocket = OpenSSL::SSL::SSLSocket.new(socket, ssl_context)
sslsocket.sync_close = true
sslsocket.connect
sslsocket.puts(“some text”)

while line = sslsocket.gets
p line
end
