Hi,
I am trying to connect an api using xmlrpc in ruby. When I run the following code:
ret = XMLRPC::Client.new2("https://api2.top-hat.info/API/")
It gives me the following error:
/Users/rahmanm/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p194/lib/ruby/1.9.1/net/http.rb:799:in `connect': SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server certificate B: certificate verify failed (OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError)
On the other hand, the same call works for python. In python when I run the equivalent call:
srv = xmlrpclib.Server("https://api2.top-hat.info/API/", allow_none = 1)
I can access the api.
Could you please tell me how to solve this ssl error in ruby.

It's not an "error"; try the above URL in a browser, and you'll see that
the cert is self-signed...

How to solve it? And why it works with python?

Though having said that, I tried your XMLRPC example here using
ruby-1.9.3-p286 and OpenSSL 0.9.8r 8 Feb 2011 and it worked fine
(i.e. no such error message).
Not sure what to think about that 
What is the environment that's giving you this message?

You might try with the latest Ruby, then, because we're on the same
version of openssl... Other than that, I don't know why I wouldn't see
the same result here.

When I use it in irb it gives me the following message:
1.9.3-p194 :003 > ret = XMLRPC::Client.new2("https://api2.top-hat.info/API/"\)
=> #<XMLRPC::Client:0x007f8cac0859b8 @http_header_extra=nil, @http_last_response=nil, @cookie=nil, @host="api2.top-hat.info", @path="/API/", @proxy_host=nil, @proxy_port=nil, @use_ssl=true, @timeout=30, @port=443, @password=nil, @user=nil, @auth=nil, @http=#<Net::HTTP api2.top-hat.info:443 open=false>, @parser=nil, @create=nil>
Is it error or it means that the xmlrpc is working?
Thanks for your help.

That's what I see, as well, and I assume that constitutes "working".
What changed between when you got the error and this result?
