Installation instructions

1. Download the certificate of your Provider of NetFree from here http://netfree.link/netfree-ca.crt.
2. Change the extension of the certificate to pem, now the filename will be netfree-ca.pem.
3. Insert the certificate into the designated folder as described below.
4. Refresh the certificate as detailed below

Note: When you install a different version of Ruby, If you do not use RVM, the certificate will need to be reinstalled.

The folders where the certificate should be inserted

There are two options, please report us at our support system which option has been useful to you, thank you.

In Windows:

C:\Ruby{The version number}{-x64 - If it's a 64-bit operating system}\ssl

For example:

C:\Ruby25-x64\ssl

C:\Ruby{The version number}{-x64 - If it's a 64-bit operating system}\lib\ruby\{The version number}\rubygems\ssl_certs\netfree.link

For example:

C:\Ruby25-x64\lib\ruby\2.5.0\rubygems\ssl_certs\netfree.link

Note: If you selected MinGW during Ruby installation, you should also install NetFree's certificate in the MinGW directory. To do so, navigate to :

C:\Ruby\25-x64\msys64\usr\ssl\cert

Locate the file ca-bundle.crt, and open it in notepad. Paste the NetFree certificate into the end of the file.

In Mac:

/opt/rubies/{The version number}/ssl

For example:

/opt/rubies/2.5.0/ssl

/opt/rubies//lib/ruby/{The version number}/rubygems/ssl_certs/netfree.link

For example:

/opt/rubies/2.5.0/lib/ruby/2.5.0/rubygems/ssl_certs/netfree.link

For users with RVM (Ruby Version Manager):

To find the path where the certificate should be inserted:

rvm osx-ssl-certs status all

To update the certificates:

 rvm osx-ssl-certs update all 

The "update" command may not have worked properly, you can check if the contents of the "netfree-ca.pem" file were copied into the "cert.pem" file.

If not, you can manually copy the file netfree-ca.pem to the end of the cert.pem file located in the above routing.

(Copy should include-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----, -----END CERTIFICATE-----)

Refresh the certificates

In Windows:

The following folder shows the c_rehash.r script run it:

C:\Ruby{The version number}{-x64 - If it's a 64-bit operating system}\ssl\certs

In Mac:

The following folder shows the c_rehash.r script run it:

/opt/rubies/{The version number}/ssl/ssl_certs
