Redmine

Hello,

referring to this message I opened in the forum
http://www.redmine.org/boards/2/topics/57726

Hello,

I'm on the latest Redmine 4.0.4 on my Ubuntu 18.04;
Rails 5.2.3
Ruby 2.5.1p57 (2018-03-29 revision 63029) [x86_64-linux-gnu]
Apache/2.4.29 (Ubuntu)
Phusion Passenger 5.0.30

Since a couple of days I've always used to generate new Issues from email, fetching from several gsuite (gmail) accounts.
Here is a sample of one of my many crons:

/8 * * * * /usr/local/bin/rake -f /usr/share/redmine/Rakefile redmine:email:receive_imap RAILS_ENV="production" host=imap.gmail.com port=993 username=my_email@mydomain.com password=my_password ssl=1 folder=issues_folder project=my_project priority=Normal tracker=MyTracker move_on_success=read move_on_failure=failed unknown_user=create default_group=default_group no_permission_check=1

It has been working since a couple of years but starting from Wednesday (probably) it stopped.
Here is the error I get with a --trace:

** Invoke redmine:email:receive_imap (first_time)
** Invoke environment (first_time)
** Execute environment
** Execute redmine:email:receive_imap
rake aborted!

I found out the problem has been patched in ruby 1.6.3
https://github.com/ruby/openssl/issues/238

maybe redmine should be "fixed"? In my ubuntu 18.04 I needed a manual patch (ruby 2.6.3 not available as update, and I did not want to install it manually)

if you need further information just ask.
thank you
