Apache configuration

In the https scenario , I have configured my cerificate in appache
configuration
file .

Do I need any decryption method to decrypt this in my rails
application
?

As far as https is concerned that will all be handled by apache.

Thank you so much Fred .

I have lot of confusing over here .

Doubts :
       Please see this ruby code ,

require 'net/http'
require 'net/https'

http = Net::HTTP.new('192.168.1.191' , 443 )
http.use_ssl = true
p http.peer_cert
path = '/main/test'
data =
'msisdn=919822222222&PTRefId=12345236789012345678&PTDateTime=20090120123020&custid=1234567890&messageType=50011'
resp, data = http.post(path, data, nil )
puts( resp,data )

Here I am posting this data to my https apache server . Being a client
I have to encrypt this data using public key . But here I didn't do any
encryption using certificate public key . But this is working how ?

can you explain me ?

cheers ,

net/http does all the ssl stuff for you (and so for you the only
difference between ssl and not ssl is a different port and setting
that use_ssl property.

I could not understand this ,

(and so for you the only difference between ssl and not ssl is a
different port and setting that use_ssl property )

I'm saying that for a person using net::http all you have to do is set
use_ssl and connect to a different port.
