I've always distrusted the ruby and rails installs on my Mac (oOS X 10.6.3) -- sudo gem cleanup can't seem to get rid of old gem versions (lots of Gem::InstallError: cannot uninstall).
Because of that, I don't trust the rails beta3 install I just completed. Here's the story: * config is Apple's ruby 1.8.7 and gem 1.3.6. * xcode is installed from Apple's developer site. * gem env result is: RubyGems Environment: - RUBYGEMS VERSION: 1.3.6 - RUBY VERSION: 1.8.7 (2009-06-08 patchlevel 173) [universal- darwin10.0] - INSTALLATION DIRECTORY: /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8 - RUBY EXECUTABLE: /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/ Versions/1.8/usr/bin/ruby - EXECUTABLE DIRECTORY: /usr/bin - RUBYGEMS PLATFORMS: - ruby - universal-darwin-10 - GEM PATHS: - /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8 - /Users/burleigh/.gem/ruby/1.8 - /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ ruby/gems/1.8 - GEM CONFIGURATION: - :update_sources => true - :verbose => true - :benchmark => false - :backtrace => false - :bulk_threshold => 1000 - REMOTE SOURCES: - http://rubygems.org/ I have done these commands: sudo gem update --system sudo gem cleanup sudo gem install tzinfo builder i18n memcache-client rack \ rake rack-test rack-mount erubis mail text-format \ thor bundler sodu gem install rails --pre whose execution ends with: Installing ri documentation for rails-3.0.0.beta3... File not found: lib The gems/rails-3.0.0.beta3 directory has a bin directory with a 20 character file named "rails." The other gem directories seem fuller. That, combined with the failure of gem cleanup, makes me think "this can't be right." I'd appreciate any advice how I might clean up my Mac rails environment. Thank you. PS: I have so far avoided MacPorts. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
