Ruby app fails in https request on heroku.com

I have a rails app which has been running on heroku for two years now without problems. And I have the following ruby code in a rake file.

require 'open-uri'
require 'json'

namespace :myapp do
    task :load_remote_data, [:user_id] => :environment do |t, args|
        events_url = "https://myapp.com/events"
        #returns json
        puts "Event url #{events_url}"
        #this gets printed ok
        result = JSON.parse(open(events_url).read)
        #open fails
        puts "Server result #{result}"
end

Error msg from Heroku console:

rake aborted!
SSL_connect SYSCALL returned=5 errno=0 state=SSLv2/v3 read server hello A
/app/lib/tasks/load_remote_data.rake:13:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>'

It seems to be some sort problem with HTTPS request. This is Ruby version i am running on Heroku

heroku run ruby --version
Running `ruby --version` attached to terminal... up, run.2192
ruby 1.9.2p330 (2014-08-07 revision 47094) [x86_64-linux]

Any ideas what to change for this to be able to make HTTPS requests again.

This looks like your apps config doesn't like the version of SSL that your app is using. You might need to make sure that open-uri is sending the right version of SSL handshake, probably TLSv1.

I'm not personally aware of how to use open-uri but maybe you could use RestClient instead.
