Ruby and OpenSSL certificate verify failed

I'm pretty sure I've tried everything under the sun. Here is the code i'm trying to run

require 'rubygems'
require 'rest-client'
require 'json'

def vipr_session(viprurl, username, password)
  vipr_session_link = RestClient::Resource.new(viprurl + '/login', username, password)
  vipr_session_response = vipr_session_link.get
  myvar = 'x_sds_auth_token'
  @mysession = vipr_session_link.headers[myvar.to_sym]
end

@username = 'root'
@password = 'mypw'
@viprurl = 'https://192.168.50.141:4443'

print " Logging into ViPR..."
  vipr_session(@viprurl, @username, @password)
print "Success! \n\n\n"
puts @mysession
storagesystems = JSON.parse(RestClient.get(@viprurl + '/vdc/storage-systems', :x_sds_auth_token => @mysession, :content_type => :json, :accept => :json))
puts storagesystems

Here is the error

kcoleman-mbp:vipr_scripts kcoleman$ ruby storage_systems.rb

I can make this work by setting verify_ssl: false in the RestClient but this code had been working previously and all of a sudden it's no longer.

Here is what I've done to try and fix:

rvm osx-ssl-certs update all
brew install openssl
brew link openssl --force
brew tap raggi/ale
brew install openssl-osx-ca
rvm pkg install openssl
curl http://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem -o /usr/local/etc/openssl/cert.pem

Here are my current configs

kcoleman$ which openssl
/usr/local/bin/openssl
kcoleman$ openssl version
OpenSSL 1.0.1i 6 Aug 2014

I ran into this article SSLError and Rubyist, sitting in a tree and this is the output of the doctor.rb script. 

kcoleman-mbp:ssl-tools kcoleman$ ruby doctor.rb 192.168.50.141:4443

It looks like ruby is using a different version of OpenSSL that is packaged with RVM. Verified by running openssl install on rvm.

kcoleman-mbp:vipr_scripts kcoleman$ rvm pkg install openssl

Beware, 'rvm pkg ...' is deprecated, read about the new autolibs feature: 'rvm help autolibs'.

Checking requirements for osx.
Certificates in '/usr/local/etc/openssl/cert.pem' are already up to date.

If you have any ideas of what to try, it's greatly appreciated.

Solution 
  • HEAD https://192.168.50.141:4443
OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server certificate B: certificate verify failed

    There are several things wrong with your certificate which make the verification fail:
