Hi, Milt -- What version of RubyGems did you install? If you haven''t installed anything yet, take a look at v0.8.11 @ http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubygems/ Hope that helps, EJC On 12/19/05, Milt Michael <miltmich-EynCeXvFgoheoWH0uzbU5w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> > Milt Michael wrote: > > I''m trying to start RubyGems on my hd.

I can see Ruby in my programs, but when I try to launch Package Manager, I get the missing shortcut problem. I''m a complete newbie, but a big believer in the principles of ror - any help greatly appreciated! I have it installed on my server at site5. Milt -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
Are you illiterate or did you simply not even bother to read the solution I posted in your other thread on the Site5 forums you can''t stop bumping? http://betweengo.com/ruby-on-rails/2005/11/08/setting-up-a-windows-ruby-on-rails-environment/ -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
bwahahaha!! holy crap. weird site, btw. "we make ruby on rails easy. we make atg easy." ATG isn''t easy to start with, fair enough, but part of the whole appeal of RoR is that it makes **itself** easy. but whatever.

(missed that paragraph) If you called me illiterate for missing that, I hate to hear what you''re going to call me after this question: How do you open a cmd window? RoR is still a long ways from being easy, in my books - but I''m sold on the concept and want to learn enough about it to be able to use it. Milt -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
Milt, In Windows, click the "Start" button, then click "Run" and type "cmd" in the text box, then press enter. (Unless you were just kidding?)

No, I wasn''t kidding. Can you please tell me what the gem command is now. Hopefully I''ll be able to follow documentation after that! Milt -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
Milt,
Depending on where you Ruby directory is, in the cmd prompt window you want
to type something like:
c:\ruby\bin\ruby gem install GEM_NAME
Where GEM_NAME is the name of the gem you''re trying to install.
(In the case of rails, you would type "ruby gem install rails -y")
(The "-y" is a shortcut for saying "yes, include all
dependencies")
Good luck!
EJC
