Hello I have Windows 7 64b and I want to use CarrierWave gem for working with file uploads. I needed to install RMagick... I have succesfully installed rmagick 2.13.2
but if I run
rails g uploader image
it thows me
Invalid gemspec in [C:/web/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/specific
ations/ZenTest-4.9.2.gemspec]: Illformed requirement ["< 2.1, >= 1.8"]
I thought that updating rubygem should help so I did it. Now I have rubygems version 2.0.3 (I hope its not a problem because downgrading like gem update --system 1.9.3 its not working)
I'm not able to uninstall ZenTest too... what I have to do? Thank you!
I uninstalled RailsInstaller and deleted Ruby folder, i deleted JRuby folder from C:\ (i had it for other work) and again installed RailsInstaller and now it works :-)

I'm a beginner programmer and I'm trying to get the rails server to run on OS X Lion. When I type "rails server" into the command line, I get this error:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:777:in `report_activate_error': Could not find RubyGem rails (>= 0) (Gem::LoadError)
from /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:211:in `activate'
from /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:1056:in `gem'
from /usr/bin/rails:18
What do you think a solution to the problem is? Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
You need to install the rails gem. You could probably do this by running bundle install inside that project.
Have you installed the Rails Gem?
gem install rails
Then do a gem list to see if Rails is in there.
It's also important that you be in the proper directory. So if you keep all of your apps in /apps/ make sure you are in /apps/my_app before calling the server command.
The Ruby bundled with OS X is too old for Rails 3.
I would recommended using 'rvm' to install the latest stable version of ruby-1.9.2-p260
Since installing ruby requires some compilation, make sure you have a gcc installed. You can install XCode to get an usable gcc.
To install rvm, you need bash, git and curl.
RVM: http://beginrescueend.com/
After that, you can use
gem install rails
Enjoy!
The Lion Server looks at a non-default path for the gem file
For example have a look at the first line of /usr/share/devicemgr/backend/devicemgrd:
#!/usr/bin/env GEM_HOME=/usr/share/devicemgr/webserver/gems GEM_PATH=/usr/share/devicemgr/webserver/gems RAILS_ENV=production /usr/bin/ruby
So to install the missing gems, make sure to install them at the required path:
sudo GEM_HOME=/usr/share/devicemgr/webserver/gems gem install rails
I just installed rvm and then rails 3.1rc5 with:
gem install rails --pre
But I got some errors after "Installing ri documentation" and the RDoc documentation:

The README file issues don't seem to be a big deal, but the 'lib' file not found sounds a bit scary.. why is it doing that? Some searching revealed others having this problem and fixing it with gem install rdoc and then re-running gem install rails --pre. But that still gives the same lib file missing errors for me.
Try using rvm gemset install rails --pre
I installed 3.1.0 on Windows (not rc8, but the final release), and got the "file 'lib' not found" error, installing both ri and RDoc. When I type in 'which ruby', I see it installed in the c:/ruby192/bin directory. I had to create a .rvm directory for myself -- it was not created as part of the install.
the --no-rdoc --no-ri worked, of course. The --pre commands installed rc8 instead of the final release.
What gives?
Installing RDoc fixed this problem for me. I had to do this in the gemset I was using.
rvm use rubyversion#gemset
gem install rdoc
After this I could install gems without the "file 'lib' not found" error.
I had the same problem with rails 3.0.9 on my Mac OS X Lion and the "rvm gemset install rails" trick solved it !
$ rvm gemset install rails
installing rails ...
rails installed.
$ rails -v
Rails 3.0.9
Thanks !
I had a similar issue before, while my solution was this: try to use ruby 1.9.2-head instead of ruby 1.9.2-p290.
rvm install ruby-1.9.2-head
rvm use ruby-1.9.2-head --default
And then, install rails 3.1 again.
so I'm installing rails with
gem install rails
and I didn't have any version of rails prior to the one I'm installing (3.0.9).
By the time the installation finishes I get the documentation error
Installing ri documentation for rails-3.0.9...
file 'lib' not found
Installing RDoc documentation for rails-3.0.9...
Even though it says that rails 3.0.9 was installed successfully.
If I run
gem list rails
it shows me version 3.0.9, but when I run
rails -v
it shows me version 2.3.5 ( I don't know here that came from ).
See: http://cl.ly/353h1o1b3y3T260L3F3p
Any help please?
If you don't really care, just remove rails 2.3.5 with gem uninstall rails and chose the appropriate one when it asks you which.
I am trying to install rails and have installed rvm and am trying to install rails but it is saying I do not have write permissions.
$ gem install rails --version 3.0.7
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)
You don't have write permissions into the /var/lib/gems/1.8 directory.
When I try sudo it give me this error, I know that you can use --no-ri --no-r-doc but even when I did this rails was not installed properly. Does anyone have any ideas?
$ sudo gem install rails --version 3.0.7
Successfully installed rails-3.0.7
1 gem installed
Installing ri documentation for rails-3.0.7...
file 'lib' not found
Installing RDoc documentation for rails-3.0.7...
file 'lib' not found
from my experience with rvm, gems should't stay in /var/lib/
if you didn't specifically asked for this, there might be a problem with your rvm installation
if so, i would definetly recommend a clean rvm install by following ryan bigg's guide of installing rvm. i followed it every time and never ever had the slightest problem after.
hope this helps!
I am using Ubuntu 10.10, RVM and Ruby 1.9.2 and trying to install Heroku for the first time. Ruby 1.9.2 is the default for RVM and the only version I have been using.
The gem install heroku worked but trying to run heroku leads to "command not found" error. The executables folder /home/mike/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin is already in the PATH. However, I see that Heroku was installed in /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems. gem list heroku does not show any installed gem. Simply creating symbolic links in .../ruby-1.9.2-p0 did not solve the problem, though it gives a different error:
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:779:in `report_activate_error': Could not find RubyGem heroku (>= 0) (Gem::LoadError)
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:214:in `activate'
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:1082:in `gem'
from /home/mike/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin/heroku:18
I don't understand gem and rvm well enough to know what to try next. I read in another question that Heroku supports Ruby 1.9.1 but not 1.9.2 but don't know if that is still true. If so, how does one use Rails and Ruby 1.9.x with Heroku?
The problem turned out to be related to sudo and Ubuntu. RVM depends on the rvm_path environment variable to get started. According to answers to another question, sudo does not preserve the PATH variable in some versions of secure Linux. I don't know if it should ever preserve the rvm_path variable, but in any case, it does not on my version of Ubuntu. So the result of sudo gem install is that the default, RVM-provided version of Ruby is not available during the installation, and the system-default is used. In my case that is version 1.8. The installation appears to succeed, but it is not going to the right gem version.
The solution was simply to use gem install instead of sudo gem install.
If 'gem list' doesn't show the Heroku gem then that would seem to be the problem (the error you posted occurs when running a Heroku command without the gem installed).
Have you tried installing it again? Any error messages?
It does work with 1.9.2.
Had the exact same problem on Mac OSX 10.6.5. Reinstalling without sudo worked in this case also. Thanks for the explanation... being a nube, I would have never figured it out.
