Am using a X509 PEM certificate with the key for integrating a payment
gateway api.
But am not able to establish the SSL connection as the certificate
verification fails..
http.use_ssl = true
#certificate file
http.cert = OpenSSL::X509::Certificate.new(File.read('sdk-cert.pem'))
#private key for that certificate
http.key = OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new(File.read('sdk-key.pem'))
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_PEER
http.start{http.request_get(uri.path){|res| print res.body }}
Error: (via Web)
OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError in TestController#test
certificate verify failed
I get the following error while i verified through command-line using
OpenSSL:
openssl verify sdk-cert.pem
"error 20 at 0 depth lookup:unable to get local issuer certificate"
Is there anything missing in the certificate ?? kindly help to sort out
the issue..

It looks like there are two certificate verifications going on:
* the server verifying your client certificate
* the ruby client verifying the server's certificate
and possibly it's the second which is failing. Is the server's
certificate signed by a standard CA, or your own CA, or self-signed?
Try the following on the command line:
openssl s_client -connect server.host.name:443
What does the verify result show? If it's not 0 (OK) then an error will
be shown. What is it?
If the server.host.name certificate is signed by your own CA, then try
openssl s_client -CAfile /path/to/cacert.pem -connect
server.host.name:443
where cacert.pem is your CA's root certificate.
If that verifies, then use http.ca_file = .... to do the same in the
Ruby client. You can see this documented in
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/https.rb (or wherever it is on your system)
Or, you could install your CA's cert into openssl's global certificate
directory. How to do this varies from system to system, and may involve
you using the c_rehash script.
HTH,
Brian.

Ah, you did step 1 already. Retry using:
openssl s_client -CApath /path/to/cacert.pem -connect foo.bar:443
where cacert.pem is the issuer certificate (i.e. the certificate of the
CA which signed your server's certificate)
If the certificate is self-signed, you could try using a copy of the
server's certificate here.

--> Again am getting the same issue at last..
Still am not sure whether the way am using the certificates while
connecting the server is correct or not?
NB: The PEM certificate file has both the private key & the certificate.
The Key file has only the private key that is specified in the
certificate
- file.
If there's no CA (as mentioned in the above logs), is there any
workaround
- to solve the same ?
Am totally blocked with this stuff.. Kindly enlighten me in resolving
this issue..

You need to look at the certificate of the *other side* that you are
connecting to (openssl s_client -connect whatever.com:443)
2) Here am not sure whether the certificate is signed or not..

OK that's good. So this means:
(1) you're trying to connect to www.paypal.com
(2) www.paypal.com presents a certificate signed by VeriSign
(3) openssl doesn't have a copy of VeriSign's root certificate, so
cannot verify PayPal's certificate.
You need a copy of Verisign's certificate stored on your machine.
Normally your machine would come with it pre-installed.
What platform are you running this under? For example, Ubuntu has a
package called "ca-certificates", which installs links in
/etc/ssl/certs. You can make a fully verified SSL connection like this:
openssl s_client -CApath /etc/ssl/certs -connect www.paypal.com:443
...
Verify return code: 0 (ok)
···

Once you've got that working, then you can do the equivalent in Ruby,
e.g. using http.ca_path = "/etc/ssl/certs"
NB: The PEM certificate file has both the private key & the certificate.
That's *your* private key and certificate, which you're presenting to
Paypal to prove your identity.
The problem is in the other direction, with Paypal presenting *their*
certificate to you to prove their identity. (Which of course they have
to do: you wouldn't want someone impersonating Paypal to intercept the
connection and collect all these credit card details you're sending
them!)

Brian.

Again thanx a ton Brian..
Still i've few more doubts..
1) Am working with Windows XP SP3
> using Ruby1.8.6
2) I did the following cmd to find the client side certificate location
folder
openssl version -d
OPENSSLDIR: "C:/lan/ssl"
-- But I didn't find the above path in my system! is there anyother way
to find it ?
3) I tried the following cmd in my Linux(i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux)
machine
openssl s_client -CApath /usr/share/ssl -connect www.paypal.com:443
-- I got a "Verify return code: 0 (ok)" for the above cmd
4) From your previous detailed explanation i very well understood my
issue and the ssl verification flow. So if i've the server's certificate
in my app's root(in case of RoR app, in Win XP), i'd be able to
successfully connect to paypal..?? Or is it enough to supply the openssl
certificates path of windows somewhere in the code..??
So far I was doubting the issue with the PEM certifcate which now am clear that it's only for my identification.. thanx a ton for your patience in explaining me.
Guess your next reply would resolve my issue.. kindly help me out..

dir /s perhaps?
Is it cygwin, or some native Win32 openssl? Maybe it even could be
configured to use the Windows cert store, I have no idea.

machine

So your app should work on Linux with
http.ca_path = "/usr/share/ssl"

You need to supply the collection of known trusted root CA certificates
(which includes Verisign's certificate).
At worst, you could copy verisign's cert, or the whole CA bundle, from
Ubuntu to XP. I expect there's a cleaner Windowsy way, but as I hate
Windows and don't use it, I'm afraid I can't help you there.
Regards,
Brian.

Thanx a lot Brian for all your help..
As you said, i'll try the same in Linux machine itself..
