I have a problem with running webrick as https server.
is this a kown problem or something i could correct in my
script.

s = HTTPServer.new(
  :ServerName => SERVERNAME,
  :Port => 443,
  :SSLEnable => true,
  #:SSLVerifyClient => ::OpenSSL::SSL::VERITY_NONE,
  #:SSLCertName => [ [ 'C','LI' ], ['O','servername'], ['CN','WWW'] ],
  :DocumentRoot => ROOTPATH + "/htdocs" )

This requires the next two lines to be un-commented.

  #:SSLVerifyClient => ::OpenSSL::SSL::VERITY_NONE,

                                         ^^^^^^^^^^^
This should be VERIFY_NONE

  #:SSLCertName => [ [ 'C','LI' ], ['O','servername'], ['CN','WWW'] ],
  :DocumentRoot => ROOTPATH + "/htdocs" )

# ruby server-test.rb

I cannot dupe your problem, the snippet above is incomplete.

So stupid. That's the fault. Thank you very much.
