Rails 3 - no such file to load -- openssl

Question

Hello, when running a Rails server, I get the following error: no such file to load -- openssl

I try a solution I find online. I go to ~/.rvm/src/ruby-1.9.2-head/ext/openssl. I type : ruby extconf.rb, but I get the following:

=== OpenSSL for Ruby configurator ===
=== Checking for system dependent stuff... ===
checking for t_open() in -lnsl... no
checking for socket() in -lsocket... no
checking for assert.h... yes
=== Checking for required stuff... ===
checking for openssl/ssl.h... no
=== Checking for required stuff failed. ===
Makefile wasn't created. Fix the errors above.

I cannot use make nor make install.

Answer 1

You might want to try running ruby-1.9.2-rc2 instead of head? not sure if it will solve this issue or not, but I did have a lot of problems trying to run under head

pretty sure the the command would look like - rvm install 1.9.2-rc2

you will need to re-install rails again
