Hi, I downloaded instiki 0.19 from
http://golem.ph.utexas.edu/~distler/code/instiki-svn.tar.gz, extracted
it, then ran ''rake upgrade_instiki''. However it failed with
** Erubis 2.6.6
Upgrading Instiki in production environment.
rake aborted!
no such file to load -- sqlite3/sqlite3_native
I found a solution is to run ''gem install sqlite3-ruby'' but
that also fails with
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)
You don''t have write permissions into the /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8
directory.
I am using a third party web host (Dreamhost) so I can see why I don''t
have write permissions there. However I previously installed instiki
0.18.1 on Dreamhost and it worked. What am I doing wrong?

What am I doing wrong?This is a common problem which is why, for the release version of 0.19, I am hoping to use Bundler to manage dependencies like sqlite3-ruby. The trick, in your situation, is to install the gem locally gem install sqlite3-ruby itextomml --no-rdoc --install-dir vendor/plugins Jacques -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Is there another workaround?

Is there another workaround?So Dreamhost has an ancient version of the sqlite3 library, too? It seems you have two options. 1) Hope that Dreamhost has an older version of the sqlite3-ruby gem installed. * Remove the vendor/plugins/sqlite3-ruby directory from your Instiki distribution, and (if Dreamhost does have the gem installed) Instiki will use the gem version instead. 2) Beg Dreahost support to update their sqlite3 library, so that you can install the gem locally (per my previous instructions). Either way, the vendor/plugins/sqlite3-ruby, bundled with the prerelease version of Instiki 0.19, is the source of nothing but trouble, and will be removed from the final distribution.

Instead, after downloading the latest Instiki, type ruby bundle from the main Instiki directory. This will either use a system-installed sqlite3-ruby gem, or will attempt to install the gem locally, in the Instiki vendor/bundle directory. (Ditto for the other gem dependencies of Instiki, like itextomml.) I''ve tested this on the machines that I have access to, but if others, with varying hosting situations, want to try it our, and report back any glitches, that would be greatly appreciated. Instiki 0.19 will use Bundler. (I hope to release it, as soon as any Bundler-related glitches are worked out.) Instiki 0.20 will be based on Rails 3.0 (which also uses Bundler, but requires Ruby 1.8.7 or 1.9.2). Jacques -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Thanks to Steven''s perseverance, we''ve straightened out the installation procedure on Dreamhost. The instructions (not complicated, but not quite "There is no step 3(TM).") can be found at http://golem.ph.utexas.edu/wiki/instiki/show/Hosted+Services Jacques -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
