I''m trying to install ruby on rails to a host server that I
don''t have
root access to. The server already has ruby.
I''ve followed the info on these two pages for installing rubygems in a
non-root user directory:
http://rubygems.org/read/chapter/3
http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowToUseMultipleGemRepositories
rubygems appears to be installed correctly but when I do "gem install
rails" I get this error:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)
Permission denied - connect(2)(Errno::EACCES)
I''ve changed my $PATH to include the gem installation dir, I have my
$RUBYLIB set to /home/geminstall/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8, and have set
the $GEM_HOME path to my gem repository.
is it possible to be completely unable to install ROR on a hosting
company server because of lack of permissions? or am I missing
something?
please help!

If you just need a different version of rails than your host provides you are better off to just install rails (or freeze it) into your application''s vendor/rails directory. It is possible to get your own version of Rubygems up and running on a shared host.

actually, the host (aplus.net) has no rails or rubygems installed,
only ruby, and I don''t have access to it''s dir (and the host
offers no
help or support for installing ror)
I''m limited to my /home/myusername level
I was getting the typical:
..../bin/gem:9:in `require'': no such file to load -- rubygems
(LoadError)
when trying to do "gem install rails", until I set the RUBYLIB path
to /home/geminstall/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8 and now I''m getting this
strange error:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)
Permission denied - connect(2)(Errno::EACCES)
which I can''t seem to find anyone else getting in this situation. I
can''t seem to get past this point.

ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)> Permission denied - connect(2)(Errno::EACCES)I would imagine that you are unable to connect to the gemserver either because of permissions or some sort of network/firewall configuration on the host. Fortunately you can copy the gems from your local repository up to the rubygems that you have installed on your hosting provider.
