Attempt #1

I was following this page to fix the OpenSSL Certificate error in my Mac El Capitan.

Though the RVM and certificates are upto date, the certificate error still occurs:

☁  ~  rvm -v

Attempt #2

Following this answer.

Create a new file fix_ssl.rb in your application initializer with:

require 'open-uri'
require 'net/https'

module Net
  class HTTP
    alias_method :original_use_ssl=, :use_ssl=

    def use_ssl=(flag)
      self.ca_file = Rails.root.join('lib/ca-bundle.crt').to_s
      self.ca_path = Rails.root.join('lib/ca-bundle.crt').to_s
      self.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_PEER
      self.original_use_ssl = flag
    end
  end
end

Download the crt file and place in your lib directory.

Now try the same in rails console:

☁  duggout [master] ⚡ rails c
Loading development environment (Rails 4.2.5)
2.2.3 :001 > require 'open-uri'; open 'https://www.google.com'
OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server certificate B: certificate verify failed
    from /Users/leninrajrajasekaran/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.2.3/lib/ruby/2.2.0/net/http.rb:923:in `connect'

OpenSSL

OpenSSL is the one from Homebrew and is latest:

☁  ~   openssl version -a

OPENSSLDIR: "/usr/local/etc/openssl"

How do we fix the certificate error?

This is what I did:

Upgraded to 2.3.0 ruby with --disable-binary

rvm uninstall ruby-2.2.3
rvm install ruby-2.3.0 --disable-binary
gem pristine --all

And now works:

2.3.0 :001 > require 'open-uri'; open 'https://www.google.com'
 => #<Tempfile:/var/folders/xq/lb_rp7gs3_b0_dh8zt5nrbm40000gp/T/open-uri20160326-38471-1xf48xn>
