Install Ruby 2.0.0-p247 with rbenv

Question

I'm trying to install Ruby 2.0.0-p247 with rbenv and I keep getting the same error no matter what I do. Here's the command and response:

$ RUBY_CONFIGURE_OPTS=--with-openssl-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.1e rbenv install 2.0.0-p247

The Ruby openssl extension was not compiled. Missing the OpenSSL lib?

I know this question has been asked elsewhere, but those solutions still give me the same response regarding OpenSSL. Help?

Answer 1

You should use CONFIGURE_OPTS instead of RUBY_CONFIGURE_OPTS.

Get the openssl directory location:

brew --prefix openssl

And here is the final command that I use to install 2.0.0-p247 on MacOS:

CONFIGURE_OPTS="--with-openssl-dir=/usr/local/opt/openssl" rbenv install 2.0.0-p247
