My problem is I can’t update gem

I lowered the rubyInstaller tried running command to update:

gem update rails --no-document

But unfortunately no update gives error:

gem update rails --no-document
Updating installed gems
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)
    SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server certificate B: certificate verify failed (https://api.rubygems.org/specs.4.8.gz)

I searched online but no help was clear! Does anyone know any tutorial on how to make it work?

I appreciate the help!

When I had this problem I solved using this tutorial, but nowadays for Windows I prefer to use Jruby, let alone headaches.

I believe your problem is solved by reinstalling rubygems:

  1. Download the Rubygems in zip format
  2. Access the directory where you unzipped rubygems
  3. Execute ruby setup.rb
  4. Test running the update gem install --system

I also installed the Devkit.

  1. Download, unzip and access the folder.
  2. Execute the commands ruby dk.rb init and ruby dk.rb install inside the folder in which Devkit was unpacked.
