similar to: MacOS X Tiger Rails Install problem

I''m on Mac OSX and I''m about to rip my hair out over how hard it is to install rails. I''ve installed rubygems and am typing "ruby setup.rb" in the command line and get "No such file or directory." I''ve never had to use command lines before so this is alien to me. Can''t they just make installation GUI-based for non-geeks like

Hi, I''m newbie to rails, so please be gentle with me. I got one of the new powerbooks that apple just released last month (october 2005). I installed rails using RubyGems and also the installer for mac osx found here http://www.tonyarnold.com/articles/2005/08/10/rolling-with-ruby-on-rails-on-mac-os-x-tiger-for-beginners everything seems to update and install fine. But when I type

I''m getting ready to go to the Rails Studio in Pasadena next week. As part of the prep for that event, I was instructed by the Pragmatic guys to download and install a new Rails 1.0/Ruby 1.8.4 configuration to my OS X 10.4.4 box. I did that three or four days ago. Ever since then, I cannot run a rake migrate command successfully anywhere in my Rails world. (Mind you,

Hello Community: I''m a brand new user of Ruby on Rails, and am having a great deal of trouble compiling from source. I''m using the tutorial at http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/01/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger to complete the install. Readline and Ruby installed just fine, and the Ruby Gems appeared to. But when I tried to sudo gem install Rails --include-dependencies,

I have been using Locomotive for rails development and recently decided to fix up the ruby/rails install that is on my mac. As we all know, Ruby 1.8.2 came on the mac and has problems, so I followed the instructions at Hivelogic for installing the latest versions of Ruby, Rails, Lighttpd and so forth. I have this set in my path within bash_login: export

I''m three pages into the OnLamp RoR Tutorial [1] and am wrestling with what appears to be a MySQL connection problem. I''ve created a simple controller called "recipe" with a corresponding "recipes" mysql table. The recipe controller is just a simple scaffold. When I browse to "recipe/new", though, I get these errors: == NoMethodError in

Hi, I''m a bit of a beginner at this and I''m having some problems with installation, hopefully someone can help. I''m following the guide for setting up under Mac OS X at http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/01/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger . I follow the tutorial all the way through without any errors but when it comes to the MySQL Native Bindings step I get an

It includes a patch for Ruby. I have already installed 1.8.4 from source, and updated my PATH to look in /usr/local first, so I don''t imagine that anything Apple does to "their" copy of Ruby will have any impact on me, but I''m wondering if the changes to their Ruby is something that needs to be done to 1.8.4 as well. Thoughts? Walter

Hi all, I''m a web designer/-developer. I found Ruby and Ruby on Rails, and as I can understand (for now) this is what I''ve been looking for. I''m really exited about this. Prior to this I''ve used Lasso and PHP. But a few questions (sitting on Mac OS 10.4.6). I tried to install according to this:

Hi, I''m new to RoR and am trying to get it up and running on my iMac Tiger (intel). I was able to get it working with the built in server and am now trying to get it working with apache 1.3 I''m stuck on getting a universal binary for mod_fastcgi.so. or source code to compile it myself.

Hi All, I''ve finally got fed up of struggling with Windows and am on the verge of splashing out on a Macbook for Ruby/Rails development. I''ve seen DHH''s post about it on loudthinking but I wondered if anyone else has any more wisdom... Is it worth it over a powerbook? Any tips on good OSX apps for Rails dev (textmate, i know already)? Anything not working well on

I''m getting this in my Lighttp.error.log file when trying to run typo in Locomotive.

I tried the instruction tutorial on http://maczealots.com/tutorials/ruby-on-rails/ and in the middle of trying to install fixrbconfig I got an error: usr/lib/ruby/1.8/powerpc-darwin8.0/ruby.h does not exist. This probably means you haven''t yet installed Xcode from the Tiger DVD. You won''t be able to compile Ruby extensions without it. Please install it then rerun this

I can''t figure out how to compile php with fcg enabled. I found a website which gives an example of how to write options in configure http://scoops.totallyrule.com/articles/2006/02/01/mysql5-ab-package-and-php5 So I wrote ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --program-suffix=5 --enable-fastcgi --enable-discard-path --enable-force-cgi-redirect --with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
