Trying to use Ruby 1.9.3 & rest-client to make https requests like:
RestClient.get('https://google.com')
always gives me a SSL error,
OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server key exchange B: bad ecpoint
which I cannot figure out. bad ecpoint?
I've had no trouble making the same request with 1.9.3 & rest-client on another Mountain Lion machine.
Notes about this machine: MacBook pro with fresh Mountain Lion install, where I originally had some trouble installing gcc-4.2 via the XCode command line tools, but eventually got gcc-4.2 via homebrew/dupes. I've uninstalled & reinstalled RVM and 1.9.3 since then.
Explaining my comment...
Update RVM to latest development version (but stable should work too):
rvm get head
Install all required libraries for ruby (autolibs=4 is for full automation):
rvm --autolibs=4 --debug requirements
Finally reinstall ruby:
rvm reinstall 1.9.3
You can enable full library automation within RVM for next commands with:
rvm autolibs enable
