WFA API - SSL error when doing API GET via Ruby RestClient

[mbrownie1]

Hey Netapp folks,

The WFA APIs work great unil we try to call them via Ruby code using the RestClient gem.  Other gems have the same issue and calls to other servers using APIs are working fine.  Is this an SSL config issue on the WFA server.  We are running it on Windows 2012, WFA 4.1rc, signed SSL cert. 

It returns..."OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3/TLS write client hello: sslv3 alert handshake failure".

Anyone run into this??

When you use http instead of https, does it work?

Can you post your ruby code?

Yes, http works (however, we of course diable http access in prod)

Here is an example of the code....

require 'openssl'
require 'rest-client'

@Job_status = (RestClient::Request.execute(
:method => :get,
:url => "https://netappwfa-server.com/rest/workflows/jobs?jobStatus=COMPLETED",
#:payload => '{}'
:headers => {:content_type => 'application/json'},
:verify_ssl => false,
))

puts @Job_status

Can you try adding this property to the request -

:ssl_version => 'TLSv2'

Hi,

     You can try to use TLS protocol while establishing the connection instead of SSLv3 which is disabled in WFA.
