Already initialized constant in jruby-openssl

Question

When running my rails application on torquebox, I get a lot of

already initialized constant: ...

warnings that originate from gems/jruby-openssl-0.8.2/lib/shared/jruby-openssl.rb:16. Is this a security problem? Is there any way to get rid of these warnings?

Answer 1

I could finally get rid of it by removing the gem altogether. According to this source, jruby-openssl is now directly pulled into the jruby project and is not needed anymore as gem.

Thanks everyone for looking into this with me.

Answer 2

I am no longer getting these errors after adding the following to my line in Gemfile.

gem 'jruby-openssl', :require => false

I hope this helps out.
