You should at least be able to run the rails on your local machine. If you are using windows, you can do this with InstantRails, on a mac Locomotive does the job. Once you have rails locally installed, you should install the ferret gem.
Then, you can test the rails application you are using (and obviously not developing) on your local machine. Documentation on freezing is available on <http://nubyonrails.com/ articles/2005/12/22/freeze-other-gems-to-rails-lib-directory>, though I don't think the ferret gem can be frozen, since it includes native code. Can't you ask the developers of the rails application you are using for help?
