Hi Frank!
I figured that out myself in the meantime, I used the mapserver from the
debian package
and compiled mapscript on my own.
As Ruby mapscript isn't very well documented and I didn't check the
whole sourcecode yet,
does anyone know how up-to-date it is?
Are at least the current main features supported?
Thank you (especially Frank for your help of course)

Hi Mapserver Community!
This is my first post here, I hope the project is still active.
I've just been trying to migrate my MapServer stuff from the CGI
version to
the Ruby MapScript version
for better integration with my Rails (for those of you who don't
know, it's
a Ruby web framework) application.
Now, while CGI is working fine, the MapScript refuses to work at all,
because of a projection error.
This really confuses me, I'm using exactly the same mapfile for both
of them.
This is what I do in Ruby and the error I get:
> RuntimeError: loadProjection(): Projection library error. Projection

Pascal,
This generally means that your Ruby mapscript was built without PROJ.4
support. I think you need to rebuild ruby mapscript ensuring that PROJ.4
support is enabled during the full build of mapscript and the underlying
mapserver library. I'm guessing that your mapscript and mapserver cgi
are
not from the same build.
PS. MapServer is still very active, though perhaps Ruby Mapscript is only
lightly used.
Best regards,
