Hi Long story short! I''ve got a rails application I''m trying to install on a shared hosting plan (with NativeSpace) using cPanel. I have two gems; calendar_date_select and prawn which are required. I have used cPanel to install the gems - they say they are installed. I''m trying to run my application and it''s not loading due to the errors shown below .... I''m having to keep ask NativeSpace tech support to install gems which seems silly as cPanel seems to say they are installed. And although they''ve installed prawn, my application isn''t seeing it. The error message in mongrel.log is:>Missing these required gems: > prawn>You''re running: > ruby 1.8.7.22 at /usr/bin/ruby. rubygems 1.3.5 at /home/enigmath/ruby/gems, /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8>Run `rake gems:install` to install the missing gems.I keep seeing the following in the cPanel gems setup help panel for RubyGems installation:>Location of Your Ruby Gem(s) > >Path: /home/enigmath/ruby/gems > >Using Your Ruby Gem(s) > >You will need to add /home/enigmath/ruby/gems to the include path. >You can do this by adding the following code to your script: > >$:.push("/home/enigmath/ruby/gems")Which means nothing to me! I''ve tried following lots of information about setting variables in .bash_profile (which I have done), but as I don''t have root access, there is little I can do to run the script of check it''s working! What I have been able to do just doesn''t seem to work. Can anyone please tell me how to get this working?! Also ... when I remove the gems the server starts ... and it loads on www.enigmatheatrecompany.co.uk with the static page ... but when I try to go to www.enigmatheatrecompany,co.uk/appointment it says page not found. It''s like the routes aren''t working!!! I have no experience with mongrel as I use Passenger on my development server so I don''t know where to look for the problems or how to structure a solution. Does anyone have a helpful "I did this with cPanel and although it was a pain I solved it this way?" advice?!

Hi, Do you have ssh access to your account? I had lately problems with some gems (available but not found somehow). In the end I installed them myself by specifying the path like: gem install curb -i /home/myusername/.gems And then adding the path to environment.rb file: ENV[''GEM_PATH''] = ''/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8:/home/myusername/.gems/'' Then everything worked. -------- On another host I also had to put something similar to your>$:.push("/home/enigmath/ruby/gems")Unfortunately I don''t remember where it went, to the cgi dispatcher maybe? -------- Maybe you should post your routes... I imagine that the , in www.enigmatheatrecompany,co.uk/appointment is not a , when you write it in the server....

I''d look into unpacking your gems into your app instead of relying on your shared host: rake gems:unpack:dependencies -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

It''s instructions for adding a line of code to your program. The instructions even contain the line of code to add. Next time, read the error messages, don''t just shut your eyes and say they mean nothing. But Lee is right: you should unpack gems into vendor.

Re: Ruby on Rails, Gems, cPanel and Shared Hosting
Marnen I have always been met with such helpful people in this group I sometimes marvel that when asking what might appear a simple question which foxes other people that the respondents take it upon themselves to rain down scorn and rudeness. How lucky am I to have escaped this ... until now! For information I am fully aware that the code was given to me. I was fully aware of the instructions and - having been to school for a good many years I''ve learnt to open my eyes and read (which as a man is quite good as I have also managed to stand up and urinate at the same time too - women are proud of me all over the world). I can even cope with the difficult words with lots of letters and syllables. I even think I got a gold star once for my spelling. So ... Please ... try getting off your high horse and read the message for what it is. A question relating to WHERE to place the line as the error message simply says "by adding the following code to your script". Now ... having used my open eyes and a pretty good grasp of the English language and knowing all about Google ... I have finally (after reading LOTS of other people with the same problem) ascertained (ohh ... a long word) that you have to place it in to config/ environment.rb. However, I have also found that for cPanel ... this is not going to work for complicated gems. I feel so clever now. I also followed Lee''s advice and marvel at how he could give that advice without the need to be rude. I''m now going to read more long words in the dictionary and hope I can next time express myself in a posting to this group so that I''m not met by unhelpful comments like yours. Oh how superior you must feel now.

The best advice would be to switch to a real host, as fighting with a shared setup this old is going to get painful, especially if you happen to need a gem with native bits. If you still want to stick it out, I''d recommend unpacking the gems (use "rake gems:unpack:dependencies" to get them all) and running that way. The $:.push method isn''t compatible with the gem dependency system in Rails 2.1 and higher. --Matt Jones -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
