RVM can't install ruby-2.2.4 but can install other (newer) versions

I’m unable to install Ruby version 2.2.4 using RVM, however, 2.7.0 and 2.6.3 install file. I’ll note that when I run this command gem install bundler or gem update —-system, i get this error:

ERROR:  Loading command: update (LoadError)
    cannot load such file -- openssl
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (NoMethodError)
    undefined method `invoke_with_build_args' for nil:NilClass

And before this gets marked as a duplicate question, because there are a lot of answers solving this exact problem, they’re all answers posted before 2013 and are thus outdated. When I try running their solution, rvm gives me a warning that what I’m doing is considered deprecated use of RVM.

It’s also probably worth mentioning that when I try to install ruby 2.2.4, I get this error:

ruby-2.2.4 - #installing rubygems-3.0.8 - please wait
Error running 'env GEM_HOME=/Users/garcia/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.4@global GEM_PATH= /Users/garcia/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.2.4/bin/ruby -d /Users/garcia/.rvm/src/rubygems-3.0.8/setup.rb --no-document',
please read /Users/garcia/.rvm/log/1583159172_ruby-2.2.4/rubygems.install.log

I already submitted an issue ticket on the RVM repo, but no one has responded in the last 3 days.

Any help is appreciated!

Ruby version < 2.4 require the old and insecure OpenSSL 1.0 and is not compatible with OpenSSL 1.1. Check the links below on how to install it:

brew install rbenv/tap/openssl@1.0

gem install bundler -v '~>1'

Do you have openssl installed? please use following command to check it

openssl

There are some issue of compatibility between versions for different rubies. Ruby <2.4 is incompatible with OpenSSL 1.1 that mean you should have OpenSSL 1.0 you have to look in your folders for version 1 and check its folder and try following command where I have put option of --with-openssl-dir 

rvm install ruby-2.2.4 --with-openssl-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/openssl@1.1/1.1.1d

In case you can't find openssl you can try this, but be caution as this openssl stuff is complicated and can effect other softwares too.

brew switch openssl 1.0.2s
