In fact, neither Rubygems 0.9.1 nor 0.9.2 work on my Windows XP box. So I reverted back to 0.9.0 and all was well.

Hi Wes, Your question got me to check my Ruby_1.8.2-15 installation on my WinXP-Pro/SP2 box. K:\>gem -v => 0.9.0 which AFIK has been working well. K:\>echo %rubyopt% => rubygems rubygems Looks suspicious; should I cut it down to just rubygems? and what does it do, anyway? K:\_Utilities\Ruby_1.8.2-15\ruby\bin>dir u* => update_rubygems.cmd (also plain update_rubygems) Should I run this before I run gem to download something? Or does "gem update" run "update_rubygems.cmd"? TIA for any insights you may offer.

> K:\>echo %rubyopt% => rubygems rubygems > Looks suspicious; should I cut it down to just rubygems? > and what does it do, anyway?You should cut it down to just rubygems. It requires rubygems for the Ruby interpreter so that you don''t have to do it explicitly before you try to use a gem. In Rails, of course, you could just require ''rubygems'' in either environment.rb or application.rb and achieve the same "require at startup" effect.> K:\_Utilities\Ruby_1.8.2-15\ruby\bin>dir u* => update_rubygems.cmd > (also plain update_rubygems) > Should I run this before I run gem to download something? > Or does "gem update" run "update_rubygems.cmd"?I''ve never seen this and don''t know about it, which makes me assume that we don''t need to know about it ;).
