troubles with RVM and OpenSSL

Question

Trying to set up a new macbook for a colleague. Not going well.

First I install OpenSSL:

Heathers-MacBook-Pro:~ heather$ rvm pkg install openssl Fetching openssl-1.0.1c.tar.gz to /Users/heather/.rvm/archives ######################################################################## 100.0% Extracting openssl to /Users/heather/.rvm/src/openssl-1.0.1c Configuring openssl in /Users/heather/.rvm/src/openssl-1.0.1c. Compiling openssl in /Users/heather/.rvm/src/openssl-1.0.1c. Installing openssl to /Users/heather/.rvm/usr  Please note that it's required to reinstall all rubies:      rvm reinstall all --force  Updating openssl certificates 

Then I try to install ruby with openssl...

You must recompile Ruby with OpenSSL support or change the sources in your Gemfile from 'https' to 'http'. Instructions for compiling with OpenSSL using RVM are available at rvm.io/packages/openssl. 

btw, the gem file says "source https://rubygems.org"

ideas?

Answer 1

OP actually saved my day! In my case:

$ rvm pkg install openssl $ rvm remove 2.4 $ rvm install 2.4 --with-openssl-dir=$HOME/.rvm/usr $ gem install bundler 

Answer 2

Try this:

rvm get head rvm pkg remove rvm requirements run  # if brew gives you warnings about formulas to install, run "brew install" for each before moving on.  rvm reinstall [the version you need (i.e: 2.0.0)]
