CentOS 4.2 (ruby-gems-0.8.11)
cd ~
mkdir ruby-db
cd ruby-db
$ rails th-db
Rails requires Ruby version 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) or later.
You're running 1.8.1 (2003-12-25); please upgrade to continue.

Am I going to have to use Fedora on this server to use rails?

There's even a repo file there for you to add to make things simple. Enjoy, and be sure to leave feedback about the ruby rpms at http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=1173 so we know if it works well enough to move to centos-plus.

It makes updates tricky, and can have unexpected consequences depending on what is linked to first, path entries or overwritten files on update. It makes software audits more complicated in production environments. Etc,etc, etc. It's just not a nice thing to do to your server. </soapbox> -- Jim Perrin System Architect - UIT Ft Gordon & US Army Signal Center

On my own FC-4 desktop, I got ruby on rails working without a problem. After I realized that I wasn't going to get it working on the CentOS-4 server that I set up, I set it all up on the desktop (also FC-4) that I am using at the client location. For some reason, all I could get was blank html pages and 500 errors from webrick and I decided that it was time to punt, go home and let it ride until tomorrow. I will now focus on the CentOS-4 server which is where I wanted it to be anyway. Also...as long as I am doing so well on ruby (I saw updates for ruby/irb/rdoc/ruby-libs/ruby-devel/ (what the heck is ri ?) ... How did you guys (or did anyone?) get mod_fastcgi installed? Did you compile from source? Thanks Craig

I do Ruby on Rails with CentOS, but I install everything from source. I just find it to be easier, Rails being still a work in progress. Preston
