Ruby SDK Error: uninitialized constant error caused by 'Process::RLIMIT_NOFILE' in lib/net/http/persistent.rb

Problem​

When using Ruby SDK in Windows Platform, initializing the SDK factory object causes the error:

uninitialized constant error. caused by 'Process::RLIMIT_NOFILE' in lib/net/http/persistent.rb

Root Cause​

This issue is related to net-http-persistent 3.0 library in Windows OS. This is a dependent library that the SDK uses. The library gets installed as a dependency when installing the SDK gem.

Solution​

The Ruby SDK works fine with a slightly lower version of net-http-persistent (2.9.4), use the commands below to downgrade it:

gem uninstall net-http-persistent
gem install net-http-persistent -v '2.9.4'
