Colin,

It must have been installed on the old system via a dependency to one of
the other gems listed below (it;s the entire listing of commandsI used to
install this onto a pristine Linux Mint 15 installation).

I have some serious doubts about this -- Ive been trying to get mongrel to
fire up this rails app for a few days now, and am entirely unable to get
anywhere with it. I cannot even list the gems on this installation now!

gem list --local
Error loading RubyGems plugin
"/home/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.6-p420/gems/executable-hooks-1.2.6/lib/rubygems_plugin.rb":
uninitialized constant ExecutableHooks (NameError)

I need to go back and start wit a pristine OS I think and start installing
things one step at a time until I get this to run -- I dont think I can
salvage this at this point. Here are the steps I took, and I will take
again, one step at a time, until I get it to run or end up in thissame pit
of despair!

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install curl
curl -L get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --auto
. ~/.bash_profile
rvm requirements
rvm install 1.8.6
ruby -v
gem install rails -v 2.3.2
sudo apt-get install libpq-dev
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
sudo apt-get install nodejs
gem install --remote mysql2
gem install --remote jdbc-mysql
gem install --remote authlogic --version 2.0.13
gem install --remote calendar_date_select --version 1.15
gem install --remote mongrel
gem install --remote paginator
gem install --remote pdf-writer
gem install --remote log4r
gem install --remote needle
gem install --remote nifty-generators
gem install --remote RedCloth
gem install --remote ruport
gem install --remote rubyzip --version 0.9.1
gem install --remote ruport-util
gem install --remote mailfactory
gem install --remote acts_as_reportable
gem list --local


Does that look ok to you? Thanks again. RVic
