Arthur,
I am running all of my hobo development projects (3 of them) on Kubunt
10.4. I have been doing this since Kubuntu 9.04. I run my production
hobo on Ubuntu 9.10 and 10.4.
The problem is not with Hobo, but with the tweaks that the
Debian/[K]Ubuntu teams have done to the "gem" command that cause many a
"gem install" to fail. This is a well known problem and means that I
never install Rails using apt-get. I found this out the first time I
needed a version of Rails that was more recent that the one provided by
[K]Ubuntu.
Here is a process that works:
sudo bash
apt-get install ruby
apt-get install libopenssl-ruby # needed for Rails as well
apt-get install libdbd-sqlite3-ruby # or your preferred database
apt-get install rdoc
# More or less follow the instructions at
http://rubyonrails.org/download
# but install hobo instead of Rails
cd /tmp
wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/70696/rubygems-1.3.7.tgz
tar xzf rubygems-1.3.7.tgz
cd rubygems-1.3.7
ruby setup.rb
ln /usr/bin/gem1.8 /usr/bin/gem
gem install hobo # Also installs Rails
exit
# Now create a hobo project
hobo my_project
cd my_project
script/generate hobo_migration
Now you have a running hobo application.
Finally, the Hobo development team have been very professional. They
have produced a great framework with a surprising low defect rate,
particularly considering the small team size and the high complexity of
the project. The have produced two books, provided decent documentation
and have shown a great deal of patience on this mailing list for issues
that are not really hobo issues (such as the one you encountered).
Regards,
Henry

Dear Rene,
Nope. Guess again. I did that and it still gave me that message. I
have tried MANY different installation methods and I am narrowing down
the problem. Now I am getting a response from the "hobo" command but
it's still not working right. I know for certain that the problem is
related to the right version of rubygems and exactly HOW it is
installed. I am reinstalling KUbuntu 10.04 from scratch every time
just to make sure that I can guarantee success if the right method is
found. I think the fact that hobo is so hard to use on any distro of
Linux is just not very professional on the part of the development team.
Sincerely,
Arthur
Hi Arthur,
you propably didn't install hobo.
Please try "gem install hobo" on the command line.
Best Regards
