Hi Folks, I think I need to understand this fundamental architectural question. I don't know if it is a Ruby question or a Rails question, or a Ruby on Rails question.
Clearly I have multiple versions. Clearly I am supposed to have multiple versions. Clearly there is an accommodation for multiple versions. Clearly I don't understand how this accommodation works. Apparently, there are the "system" gems, and there are "bundle" gems, which are apparently controlled by my application. Presumable my application is always going to want to run in the context of the assembled gems collected for the purposes of the application. So, my first question is, how is this accomplished? Simple path search order? For whatever reason, different versions are being selected in different contexts. I don't know enough about how Ruby or Rails does things to understand this, but I have a simple example: *$ rake time:zones:local* rake aborted! You have already activated rake 10.0.4, but your Gemfile requires rake 10.3.2. Prepending `bundle exec` to your command may solve this. /var/www/vhost/todo.tryx.org/tracks/config/boot.rb:6:in `<top (required)>' /var/www/vhost/todo.tryx.org/tracks/config/application.rb:1:in `<top (required)>' /var/www/vhost/todo.tryx.org/tracks/Rakefile:5:in `<top (required)>' (See full trace by running task with --trace) *$ bundle exec rake time:zones:local* * UTC -08:00 * Pacific Time (US & Canada) Tijuana Isn't there some way to declare that the bundle context should be the default? In my case, I am running the Ruby on Rails application through Passenger, so I need to declare, "Use the bundle context" as the default. If somebody could point me in the direction of a manual that explains why all this works the way it does, I'd be appreciative. Thanks for the help, Chris. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
