Hi there,
Brand new to RoR just reading thru agile development with rails. I''m
currently on version 2.1.0 and attempting to update to 2.1.2 however
when I issue the command ''gem update rails'' I see the
following
output:
Updating installed gems
Updating rails
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno::EACCES)
Permission denied - /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/cache/
activesupport-2.1.2.gem
Has anyone else come across this problem now or in the past? If so
please can you help me!!
Thanks in advance.
Richard Delph

With questions like this, it''s extremely helpful to post some details about the used OS. Guess, it''s Linux or OS X, then you should run it as root like: sudo gem update rails goes for most permission errors. If it''s Windows, you must login as Admin I guess --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Hi guys, after posting I suddenly remembered I used the ''sudo'' command when initially installing rails!! Have been a mac user for nearly 10 years and new to unix & the shell in os x but quickly getting the hang of things through practice! Thanks for the swift response anyway, much appreciated. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
