Any ideas if this is a version or a config issue? Runmning Gems 1.0.1, rails is 2.0.2 kenbob ----------------------- ruby script/server => Booting WEBrick... /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.0.2/lib/initializer.rb:159:in `require_frameworks': no such file to load -- openssl (RuntimeError)
Do you have openssl installed (and openssl development headers so that
ruby can build its openssl extensions) ?

them. I don't see what the difference is. But on my development box, Webrick fails to start with the openssl exception. On the test box, it runs fine. So, can you be specific about what files/libraries I can look
for to verify that openssl is installed with the development headers?
That rather depends on what operating system you're on, but on my
machine I have a /usr/include/openssl/
I followed the instructions at rubyonrails.org/down. There was no mention there that openssl is an external requirement - I thought that it came with ruby-1.8.6. I downloaded and compiled ruby-1.8.6 with "./configure --prefix=/home/mdhender". Checking the config logs,
there's nothing about openssl. No warnings, no errors, no complaints. I just don't see what configure is looking for.
It is part of ruby 1.8.6. It's not vital to ruby, so if it can't do it
it just skips it.
To build it you cd to ruby_source/ext/openssl and run extconf.rb (and
then make; make install)
It should complain at this point if the openssl headers can't be found

I am missing those on the development box. Poking around some more, I found out that I am missing the openssl headers on the box. I did not have the "/usr/include/openssl" directory. I did an apt-get libssl-dev, reconfigured/compiled/installed ruby and now Webrick works as expected on the development box.
I am still puzzled as to *where* the configure tests for the headers.

Hi guys,
Today I did an "gem update rails -y" and immediately afterwards I am having n number of issues. First Webrick was running, but the was not responding currently.
When I cleared the old version of most of the gems, and did an install/update again, it doesnt start the WEbrick anymore, giving this message about "require_frameworks".
I read your post and checked that I have /usr/include/openssl and the other two directories as well (ones Mike found).
However, since I have not compiled my own copy of ruby, (I am on Ubuntu and using their package for ruby 1.8.6) I am not sure how can I move on...
Any ideas/suggestions please...
regards
I was having the same problem as you on Ubuntu. I found the answer so hopefully others will find it here as well. You have to install this package:
sudo apt-get install libopenssl-ruby
And the error should go away for you (it did for me on Slicehost).
Hope that helps.

Hi,
I checked and found that I already have that package installed.
however, I still went ahead and reinstalled that package. Still no
change in behaviour. 
any more ideas.

Do you have the ruby-dev packages installed?
I should clarify, do you have ruby1.8-dev package installed?

Hi,
As it turned out and I had forgotten in the meantime, that I did not install ruby from the Ubuntu packages, rather from the site by compiling it.
There was the source available on my system. Even then, I took the latest patch level of ruby source and compiled on my system, things worked fine afterwards.
thanks for everybody's time and attention.

Yes this works for me thanks a lot...
I too occured the error but unable to resolve it till now.
I'm using RHEL4 and did a gem update rails -y.
Updated from gem 0.94 to 1.1.1, rails 1.2.5 to 2.0.2
I too have openssl 0.9.7a on my machine.
Any assistance? Thanks! = ]
For those of you who struggled through the message boards to try and fix this here is what fixed it for me. I am installing and running Ruby on Rails for the first time and running through one of the online tutorials. I am using Ubuntu and kept getting the error message of the original post.
1. "su" to become root and do "apt-get install libopenssl-ruby" to get all the whole library. 2. To get the header files, still as root, do "apt-get install ruby1.8-dev" which gives the development headers. 3. Now you can go to the "ruby_directory/ext/openssl" and run "ruby extconf.rb" and it should work with no problem. Then "run make". Then "make install".
I kept trying to go to the ext/openssl directory and run the "ruby extconf.rb" and it kept telling me to go to hell!. Once you run those two apt-get's it should have everything you need to install openssl.
Oh to clarify on the directory "~/ruby-1.8.7-p72/ext/openssl$" so it is just the latest ruby package installed to the home directory.
Hope that helps the new users!
