I''ve updated rails and other gems following:
http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoUpgrade
When I try to run: gem cleanup, I get the following error:
Cleaning up installed gems...
Attempting to uninstall rails-1.2.6
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::InstallError)
Unknown gem rails = 1.2.6
Googling the problem, I found: http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/170342
Running:
gem uninstall --install-dir -/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/
Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8 rails
I get:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::InstallError)
Unknown gem rails >= 0
How can I uninstall rails 1.2.6? also, since gem cleanup gets an
error, I can''t clean up any other gems....

Running it with sudo I get:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::InstallError)
Unknown gem rails >= 0
Do I need to actually sign in as root?

Ah...this is a good topic. I''m new to Ruby while using the Mac. So it seems that Mac''s installed Ruby can be uninstalled properly as well. Then we can definitely update it to get the latest version.

Sorry for the late reply -- for some reason missed your post till now.
Running the command with the correct path and sudo, asks me if I want
to remove executables: rails in addition to the gem? [Yn]
When I say y, I get an error:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)
You don''t have write permissions into the /System/Library/
Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/bin
directory.
Should I sign in as root?
Cheers,
Elle

Signed in as root and made sure I have the correct path and the same
happens. It asks if I want to uninstall rails. I say yes and it gives
me an error:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)
You don''t have write permissions into the /System/Library/
Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/bin
directory.
Why is this happening? What should I do?
Thanks,
Elle

I had the same problem as Elle. In my case /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/bin didn''t exist. I cd''d into /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8 and ran `sudo mkdir bin` and then I stopped getting the write permissions error when trying to cleanup my gems. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
