VMAIL ERROR: uninitialized constant Net::IMAP::VERIFY NONE

[GrahameBlackwood]

Since I update my system (PCLinuxOS) last weekend, I get this error every time I try to start VMAIL.

I don't know what changed to cause the error (and sadly, don't know how to find it), but it certainly wasn't VMAIL.

Hope it's simple to correct and not terminal for my use of VMAIL which has served me well for the last 5 years.

Hi @GrahameBlackwood

An easy fix is to install an older version of Vmail -- perhaps close to the version you were using.

gem uninstall vmail --all
gem install vmail -v 2.8.6  # an old version

Hi Dan

Thanks very much for the quick response. I was using v2.8.7 and removed it
as you suggest. On trying to install v2.8.6 I get the following error
message:

ERROR: Loading command: install (LoadError)
/usr/lib64/ruby/openssl.so: undefined symbol: SSLv2_method -
/usr/lib64/ruby/openssl.so
ERROR: While executing gem ... (NoMethodError)
undefined method `invoke_with_build_args' for nil:NilClass

I get the same error message if I try to install v.2.9.6

Cheers

What version of Ubuntu are you using in this case? I'll try to diagnose with a VM

Hi Daniel

I'm not using Ubuntu. I'm using PCLinuxOS and the kernel version given by
uname -r is 4.1.7-pclos3.

Cheers

Hi Daniel

I've just upgraded my system to linux version 4.4.5-pclos1 and I get the
same result when trying to install vmail 2.9.6.

Hi Grahame. Sorry for the delay. I found this suggestion on StackOverflow, which is to reinstall Ruby with SSLv2 support using RVM (Ruby Version manager).

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13366409/undefined-symbol-sslv2-method-when-trying-to-run-thin-webserver

Could you try following the instructions in the top answer? It begins,

install rvm version 1.14.7, where the openssl pkg includes openssl version 0.9.8, and includes SSLv2 support by default...

Hi Daniel

I'll give that a try and let you know the results. Thanks for taking the
time to look at this. i tried installing Vmail on another user account on
this pc and the error reports were the same as on my account.

Cheers

Hi Daniel
The removal or old rvm and the re-install of rvm 1.14.7 seems to have
worked as I see the message 'Upgrade of RVM in /home/grahame/.rvm/ is
complete.'
This is despite curl returning status '22' when it tried to download
'https://github.com/rvm/rvm/releases/download/1.14.7/1.14.7.tar.gz.asc'

Then I tried installing Vmail 2.9.6 and had the same error report from
previous emails:

'ERROR: Loading command: install (LoadError)
/usr/lib64/ruby/openssl.so: undefined symbol: SSLv2_method -
/usr/lib64/ruby/openssl.so
ERROR: While executing gem ... (NoMethodError)
undefined method `invoke_with_build_args' for nil:NilClass'

I suspect the update of my pc's PCLinuxOS software has had something to do
with Vmail not loading or being capable of upgrading as these problems
seemed to coincide with the system update.

I'm going to try and install vmail-2.9.6 on another computer to see how
that goes.

Cheers and many thanks

Hi Daniel

I tried installing on the other pc (well it's a netbook really) and got
farther than on my desktop. The messages from the attempted install of
Vmail-2.9.6 are:

'Fetching: blockenspiel-0.5.0.gem (100%)
ERROR: Error installing vmail:
blockenspiel requires Ruby version >= 1.9.3.'

It's getting late so I think I'll try and install the correct Ruby version
tomorrow.

Cheers
