Rails - Sep 2008 - in `activate': can't activate aionpack (= 1.13.6, runtime)

Hi,

I am trying to run my test cases and everytime I will get the following
errors:

c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:142:in `activate'':
can''t

I tried to install/uninstall actionpack 1.13.6, gem update(system and
source), reinstall rails, gem cleanup, and almost anything I can think
of but will always encounter this problem. Please help.

What''s on that line?  Perhaps a "gem
''activesupport'', ''=1.13.6''", hmm?

The backtrace was fine.  What are the first 5 lines in test/ 
test_helper.rb?
This is the first file in the backtrace that''s "local" to
your project.

Line 4 is the first blank line in my copy.  Is this an older project?

Hi these are the first few lines of test_helper.rb:

ENV["RAILS_ENV"] = "test"
require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + 
"/../config/environment")
require ''test_help''
require ''action_web_service/test_invoke''

When I comment out "require
''action_web_service/test_invoke''" the
problem is gone. But I got no idea how it got there in the first place.

Thanks,
Jason

Well, I''m guessing that means it wasn''t put there by you.  If
all the
tests pass, perhaps leaving it out is the right thing.  However, if  
you use ActionWebService, you might need to install it separately as a  
plugin -- it used to be included with Rails, but later(current)  
versions may have cut it loose.

If you really want to understand the root cause, start following the  
chain by determining where ''action_web_service/test_invoke'' is
loaded
and see what''s inside.

I tried to install the ActionWebService and they require me to install 
actionpack 1.13.6 first. But even if I installed actionpack 1.13.6 I 
still can''t activate that particular version.

Thanks,
Jason

the problem is that ActionWebService is requiring a particular version  
of ActiveSupport (the rails gems typically do this), ie the one that  
was current when ActionWebService was last released but a different  
version of ActiveSupport has already been loaded.
There are a number of ways of using ActionWebService today, personally  
I''ve got the old code frozen into my vendor/rails (rest of rails is  
frozen anyway), and with a few tweaks it works fine
(http://www.texperts.com/2007/12/21/using-action-web-service-with-rails-20/
) There have also been forks of the original code that have been  
updated (have a search on github). It isn''t however as simple as  
installing the old gem.

Now I remember why I included that particular code in 
test_helper.rb...this is because I want to re-enable actionwebservice. 
But how do I freeze my code so that I can use ActionWebService? 
Currently my application is using rails 2.0.2 and ActionWebService 
requires me to activate ActionPack 1.13.6. Can I just freeze a 
particular part of the application?
