I am completely new to Ruby on Rails, and programming in general, and
so I have what imagine are two pretty idiotic questions:
1) I am trying to install all of the components I need to run RoR on
OS X Leopard (following instructions at
http://teabass.com/super-simple-ruby-on-rails-install-with-macports-for-leopard/#comment-1993).
I got up to the part where I type "sudo gem update" into Terminal, and
all was well, until I got this error:
**********
Attempting remote update of rubynode
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::Installer::ExtensionBuildError)
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
ruby extconf.rb update
==================== ERROR ====================Please set RUBY_SOURCE_DIR to the
source path of ruby 1.8.6
(2007-09-23)!
===============================================**********
Any thoughts on how to get past this?
2) Before I hit the above snag, I accidentally selected "fastthread
1.0.1 (mswin32)" instead of "fastthread 1.0.1 (ruby)", during the
gem
update. How can I now install the correct version of fastthread? (not
even sure what that is, but it seems important).
Many thanks.

Thanks! Now a follow-up question: I ran: sudo gem update --system It updated me to 1.0.1. Do I now have to reinstall gems like capistrano and rails? Unfortunately the Hivelogic article only applies to Tiger -- it hasn''t been updated yet for Leopard.> > I am completely new to Ruby on Rails, and programming in general, and > > so I have what imagine are two pretty idiotic questions: > > > 1) I am trying to install all of the components I need to run RoR on > > OS X Leopard (following instructions at > > >http://teabass.com/super-simple-ruby-on-rails-install-with-macports-f... > > ). > > > I got up to the part where I type "sudo gem update" into Terminal, and > > all was well, until I got this error: > > Run the following on a terminal: > > gem env > > to see current gem version.

Oy vey, to be a newbie. I tried running a test app, using the following procedure, and got the following error. sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/src sudo chgrp admin /usr/local/src sudo chmod -R 775 /usr/local/src cd /usr/local/src rails testapp cd testapp script/server Missing the Rails 2.0.2 gem. Please `gem install -v=2.0.2 rails`, update your RAILS_GEM_VERSION setting in config/environment.rb for the Rails version you do have installed, or comment out RAILS_GEM_VERSION to use the latest version installed. The thing is, I''m pretty sure I do have Rails 2.0.2. installed, because when I type rails -v I get this: Rails 2.0.2 If I comment out RAILS_GEM_VERSION, I get the same error, just without "2.0.2."

Probably not a great idea to create your app under /usr/local. I would recommend /var/www or ~/rails or something like that. You''ll find it much easier to work with and you won''t constantly be battling the system''s permissions settings.

Thanks for the tip. I ultimately resolved the problems above by getting rid of my macport- installed versions, and using the ruby and rails included with Leopard.

You can upgrade the gems, sudo gem update. If there is later versions available, u will get the latest version.

David, Here is a page you probably want to bookmark for the latest on Ruby on Rails on Mac OS X: http://ruby.macosforge.org/ And especially take a look at the FAQ here: http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/ruby/wiki/FAQ Sorry I didn''t see this sooner.

David, Oh also take a closer look at the gem command. There are some pretty cool things you can do with it like: gem outdated => will list all the local installed gems that are have new versions available Then it''s just a matter of running: sudo gem install some_gem The versions of RubyGems > 0.9.5 even take care of the dependencies for you by default. Another quick tip is that when Rails gets updated you should probably install that gem first then a lot of the dependencies of Rails with also get installed and should shorten the list of gems listed with ''gem outdated'' Just some thoughts. Good luck. P.S. I''ve been impressed with the support of Rails from Apple so far. There was a problem some had before RubyGems 0.9.5+ was released, but now that problem no longer exists. There shouldn''t be any reason not to use the Apple installed gems and Ruby at this point.
