I''m following the directions at http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org/ I''ve installed chronic and packet gems. Then it says: you can install the plugin from git: git clone git://github.com/gnufied/backgroundrb.git BUT WHERE??? I did this at the root level of my rails app. $ git clone git://github.com/gnufied/backgroundrb.git Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/xxxxx/rails/xxxxx/ backgroundrb/.git/ remote: Counting objects: 1862, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (732/732), done. remote: Total 1862 (delta 1078), reused 1852 (delta 1073) Receiving objects: 100% (1862/1862), 1.73 MiB | 885 KiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (1078/1078), done. So the git repository of backgroundrb is at the root level of my rails app. Now I''m supposed to run the rake task: $ rake backgroundrb:setup (in /Users/xxxxx/rails/xxxxx) rake aborted! Don''t know how to build task ''backgroundrb:setup'' (See full trace by running task with --trace) Now I''m stuck. Any suggestions? Thanks! John
It''s a plugin that you need to install do the git clone in vendor/plugins or ./script/plugin install git://github.com/gnufied/backgroundrb.git On Thu, Feb 5, 2009 at 10:07 AM, John Miller <jmillr at umich.edu> wrote:> I''m following the directions at http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org/ > > I''ve installed chronic and packet gems. > > Then it says: you can install the plugin from git: > > git clone git://github.com/gnufied/backgroundrb.git > > BUT WHERE??? > > I did this at the root level of my rails app. > > $ git clone git://github.com/gnufied/backgroundrb.git > Initialized empty Git repository in > /Users/xxxxx/rails/xxxxx/backgroundrb/.git/ > remote: Counting objects: 1862, done. > remote: Compressing objects: 100% (732/732), done. > remote: Total 1862 (delta 1078), reused 1852 (delta 1073) > Receiving objects: 100% (1862/1862), 1.73 MiB | 885 KiB/s, done. > Resolving deltas: 100% (1078/1078), done. > > So the git repository of backgroundrb is at the root level of my rails app. > Now I''m supposed to run the rake task: > > $ rake backgroundrb:setup > (in /Users/xxxxx/rails/xxxxx) > rake aborted! > Don''t know how to build task ''backgroundrb:setup'' > > (See full trace by running task with --trace) > > Now I''m stuck.

Thanks to all who replied. I strongly suggest that the documentation read script/plugin install git://github.com/gnufied/backgroundrb.git instead of git clone git://github.com/gnufied/backgroundrb.git Even if it is obvious to many, it wasn''t obvious to me where the download was supposed to go... Thanks again!
