Problem with Ruby 1.9, HTTPS and OpenSSL

[Dagnan]

Hi

I have a strange problem with my Ruby installation.

First:
- I use RVM, and I tried to compile Ruby with my system version of
openssl (and libs), and with the package version included in RVM. Both
fail
- I have never had an error during compilation/installation, always at
runtime
- I don't use a firewall and the page is displayed fine in my browser
- with my system install of Ruby (1.8.7) I don't have this problem...

I use this simple script

*************************
require 'net/http'
require 'net/https'
require 'uri'

url = URI.parse('https://www.google.com')
res = Net::HTTP.start(url.host, url.port) { |http|
http.get('/')
}
puts res.body
*************************

and I get

~/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-preview1/lib/ruby/1.9.1/net/protocol.rb:
135:in `read_nonblock': end of file reached (EOFError)

What do you think is the source of the problem?

Strange. Ruby 1.8.7p248 raises EOFError on my environment.

My mistake. It fails everywhere, because with net/https we have to
specify to use ssl.

My problem is actually in net-http-persistent module, I try to
reproduce it but it succeeds manually...

So this topic is no longer useful.

There was a bug in net-http-persistent. Upgrade to net-http-persistent =
