RE: Dr. Otto: Vote Bidding Bot

in #radiator7 years ago (edited)

This is a very good question. I installed ruby for windows. Then opened the command prompt for ruby and typed without the $ sign and things started happening on my screen.
$ git clone https://github.com/inertia186/drotto.git
$ cd drotto
$ bundle install

When all of that was done I typed in without the $sign
$ rake run

But I get the error....
:WRN => "API exception, retrying (SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=error: certificate verify failed)",
:detail => #<OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=error: certificate verify failed>,
:backtrace => [

Somewhere I think I seen @inertia talk about running on windows. I'll try to find it and If i figure it out I'll share. I'm a complete noob but see many of the small minnow bots are now all dolphin bots. We could use some more minnow bots for sure to help the little guys. Thanks @inertia.
It looks like you get this error when you don't have gems installed....You can use 2 lines of code to fix it according to the official Ruby guide....
$ gem install rubygems-update
after that runs the you run this.
$ update_rubygems
This takes about 5 minutes. It shows all of the bugs fixes and ssl certification fixes....Alas It doesn't resolve the error. This is my only option to get ruby working on windows. Anyone with a solution to the error might get some surprise upvotes for the help.
