Hey all, this is my first attempt with rails....
This what is happening:
me@mypc:~$ ruby -v
ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [i686-linux]
me@mypc:~$ gem -v
1.3.7
so, ok let''s install rails:
me@mypc:~$ gem install rails
ERROR: Loading command: install (LoadError)
no such file to load -- zlib
ERROR: While executing gem ... (NameError)
uninitialized constant Gem::Commands::InstallCommand
:(
I''ve searched in google, forums, etc.. but I couldn''t find a
good
answer for my problem, so I''m here.
Thanks in advance for your time.
cheers!

Ah, Ubuntu, cool ;) than try: *sudo** gem install rails* +your password I saw you tried on Ruby 1.9 If you are new, I think the best is the default, easiest way. First try it from Synaptic, and with the latest stable versions, but as you wish. I had plenty of problems installing Rails on Ubuntu, so if you still cannot install it well, please let me know, or also you can find me in private. good luck, gezope 2010/9/1 Juan Costa <lists-fsXkhYbjdPsEEoCn2XhGlw@public.gmane.org>> Hugo Roque wrote: > > check if exist the file zlib.dll in ruby''s bin folder. > > > > -- > > * > > Hugo Roque > > * > > > > *Twitter**:* http://twitter.com/Hugolnx > > *Email:* hugo.roque-4N3OdB1lhPdwFqzsTH5u/w@public.gmane.org > > *Github:* http://github.com/HugoLnx > > *Celular:* 8641-1271 > > *Blog:* http://hugolnx.wordpress.com/ > > Hi Hugo, thanks for your answer, but I''m using Ubuntu, so I don''t have > dll''s. > Thanks anyway. > -- > Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To post to this group, send email to rubyonrails-talk-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFF+G/Ez6ZCGd0@public.gmane.org > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > rubyonrails-talk+unsubscribe-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org<rubyonrails-talk%2Bunsubscribe-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org> > . > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. > >-- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Make sure you install the dev headers. Then go back to where you built Ruby, cd to ext/zlib, and run "ruby extconf.rb; make; sudo make install". If you''re using the Debian package for Ruby, I think the zlib library was broken out into its own package that you''ll need to install.

gem commands. Also as you can see I have zlib[devel] installed. Some one
mentioned something about the headers being installed with zlib??? I''m
not sure I know what that means...could someone enlighten me? Any help
appreciated...thanx!

Hi, not sure if I got it well: so you do have Ruby1.9, Gem1.3.7 but only Rails version 2.3.5, now you want to update, right? On Ubuntu try this: "gem update rails" If you have permission problems then "sudo gem update rails" except if you have RVM installed, then don''t use sudo when installing gem. Then make a cleanup "gem cleanup" Troubleshhot: "rails -v" should be 3< Someone told me he only could solve his Zlib problem with RVM, because it has a package for it: http://rvm.beginrescueend.com/packages/zlib/ I really recommend to use RVM, because you can prevent later problems also.

...hey Z, thanx for the reply. ''gem cleanup'' does work, but
when I try
''gem install rails'' I get the zlib error below. I
can''t seem to install
any gems due to the zlib problem. I looked into rvm, but I can''t see to
get that installed. I am using Fedora, so I used yum to install rvm, but
can''t seem to get that working either. rvm doesn''t seem to be
in my
path, and I can find an executable for it in the .rvm folder. I''m going
to continue working on this, and will post back when I finally figure it
out. Thanx!
