I''m a novice in these lands, hence the possibly rudimentary inquiry...
I''m a designer/AS3 developer and am hoping to delve into Ruby on Rails
on the suggestion of a friend. Have been trying to get it installed
and am running into an error that perplexes me.
I''ve been able to get ruby and rubygems installed on OSX 10.5.7
following the directions on
http://hivelogic.com/articles/ruby-rails-mongrel-mysql-osx,
but in trying to install rails ran into:
FW-W874815VXA9-3:src gensler$ cd rubygems-0.9.2
FW-W874815VXA9-3:rubygems-0.9.2 gensler$ sudo /usr/local/bin/ruby
setup.rb
sudo: /usr/local/bin/ruby: command not found
--
Hoping that I could ignore the ''command not found'' message and
still
achieve my installation goals, I continued
--
FW-W874815VXA9-3:rubygems-0.9.2 gensler$ cd ..
FW-W874815VXA9-3:src gensler$ sudo gem install rails --include-
dependencies

Bulk updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing rails:
fastthread requires RubyGems version >= 1.2
--
At this point I did a search to see if I could update the version of
RubyGems I had just installed but ran into the following
--
FW-W874815VXA9-3:src gensler$ cd rubygems-0.9.2
FW-W874815VXA9-3:rubygems-0.9.2 gensler$ gem update –system

FW-W874815VXA9-3:rubygems-0.9.2 gensler$ sudo /usr/local/bin/ruby
setup.rb
Password:

per the installation page at
http://hivelogic.com/articles/ruby-rails-mongrel-mysql-osx
I thought that perhaps I had incorrectly set the path in
my .bash_login file, so I checked, and it appears to be correct.
Any help or suggestions would be most appreciated.
One thing, Ruby is not in /usr/local/bin but in /usr/bin. If your scripts require ruby to be in /usr/local/bin you can do this sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ruby /usr/local/bin/ruby And be done with it. What I have done is to install XAMPP on my Mac, and remember to install the Dev tools also (there are 2 download links). then install passenger (sudo gem install passenger) Add the config passenger tells youti paste in, to /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/etc/httpd.conf And now your done (pretty much).
