NOOB capybara Rspec warning: regexp match /.../n against to UTF-8 string - ruby-on-rails-3

I have the following error when I use capybara with Rspec:
/Users/imac/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p180#hbg_3.0.7/gems/rack-1.2.3/lib/rack/utils.rb:16: warning: regexp match /.../n against to UTF-8 string
.
After looking at the posted problem on github they suggest upgrading to rack 1.3.0.
I tried to do that but this is the problem:
If I add the rack gem to my gemfile and then do bundle install I get:
You have requested:
rack = 1.3.0
The bundle currently has rack locked at 1.2.3.
Try running `bundle update rack`
And if I try to do bundle update rack I get:
Bundler could not find compatible versions for gem "rack":
In Gemfile:
rspec-rails (= 2.6.0) depends on
rack (~> 1.2.1)
rack (1.3.0)
How can I update rack so that I can get rid of the error messages>
Thank you in advance.

I searched in google this such problem and found you question))
To solve - install gem "escape_utils"
Then create file RAILS_ROOT/congif/initializers/escape_utils.rb with code:
module Rack
module Utils
def escape(s)
EscapeUtils.escape_url(s)
end
end
end
and enjoy)
Thanks this guy to posted solution http://crimpycode.brennonbortz.com/?p=42

Bundle exec doesn't work

I am trying to use rails-erd. The last time I used it was in February and worked fine
I tried using erd and bundle exec erd
I am getting this error.. I have rails 4 in another project, but in this project I use rails 3.2.15 in the gem file
Loading application in 'my_app'...
WARN: Unresolved specs during Gem::Specification.reset:
activerecord (>= 3.0)
i18n (>= 0.6.4, ~> 0.6)
multi_json (~> 1.3)
tzinfo (~> 0.3.37)
WARN: Clearing out unresolved specs.
Please report a bug if this causes problems.
Failed: Gem::LoadError: You have already activated activesupport 4.0.0, but your Gemfile requires activesupport 3.2.15. Using bundle exec may solve this.
What does this mean and how do I solve this?
The error shows that you have already activated activesupport 4.0.0 but in your gemfile.lock file the version of the activesupport is 3.2.15.
So simply delete the gemfile.lock file and again bundle install
It will take the latest version of activesupportor, or either you can change the version manually.
In the Gemfile of the app specify the version of Rails if you haven't done so:
gem 'rails', '3.2.15'
Run bundle install then try running the script again using bundle exec.
If it still doesn't work try uninstalling rails 4 and then running it.
gem uninstall rails
Ideally if you're executing your script with bundle exec it always execute the script in the context of the current bundle using the Gemfile.

rails -v shows wrong version when using rvm

I've just tried to update to Rails 3.1.3 using RVM with the following commands:
rvm install ruby-1.9.3-p0
rvm --default use ruby-1.9.3-p0
If I query the current version or ruby:
ruby -v
I get the correct version: ruby 1.9.3p0 (2011-10-30 revision 33570) [x86_64-darwin10.8.0]
Then to update the gems:
gem update --system
This gives me version 1.8.24
I then create my gemset and set it as my default:
rvm ruby-1.9.3-p0#rails313 --create --default
and finally install the Rails gem:
gem install rails
When I query the version of rails:
rails -v
I get Rails 3.0.11 ... my old version of Rails
If I try to start my Rails server
rails s
I get a huge error:
.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p0#rails313/gems/activesupport-3.0.11/lib/active_support dependencies.rb:239:in `require': dlopen(/Users/lss_dev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p0#rails313/gems/ruby-debug-base19-0.11.25/lib/ruby_debug.bundle, 9): Symbol not found: _ruby_current_thread (LoadError)
With a lot of complaints about dependencies.
My gemfile.lock does contain the following block:
rails (3.0.11)
actionmailer (= 3.0.11)
actionpack (= 3.0.11)
activerecord (= 3.0.11)
activeresource (= 3.0.11)
activesupport (= 3.0.11)
bundler (~> 1.0)
railties (= 3.0.11)
Does this have something to do with it or should I even be touching the gemfile.lock file??
I'm using rvm version 1.10.0, any help would be appreciated
To answer my own (extended) question...
Trashing the gemfile.lock file allowed me to just run
bundle install
ensuring that I had my Rails gem set to the correct version (3.1.3), which worked. The issue that I was running into then was when I started my rails server I got the following browser error
undefined method `consider_all_requests_local' for ActionController::Base:Class
Initially I thought this was due to some routing changes in Rails 3.1.* As it turned out in my application_controller.rb file I was dealing with 404 errors and had the following block:
unless ActionController::Base.consider_all_requests_local
rescue_from Exception, :with => :render_404
end
ActionController::Base.consider_all_requests_local
Is now deprecated and substituting in:
Rails.application.config.consider_all_requests_local
Did the trick.
Thank you for your help and I hope this helps someone in the future
You may have to swap the version of rvm / ruby and then install.

Rake gems:install yields error when following declarative authorization Railscast

I'm following Railstcast #188 to get declarative authorization running on my Rails 3 app (using Ruby 1.9.2) and am running into an issue getting the gem to install.
Ryan suggests adding it in config/environment.rb with the following:
config.gem "declarative_authorization", :source => "http://gemcutter.org"
Then install it with sudo rake gems:install.
However when I try that I get an error:
/Users/Travis/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p290/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems.rb:314:in `bin_path': can't find gem rake ([">= 0"]) with executable rake (Gem::GemNotFoundException)
I tried rake gems:install, but got this error:
Don't know how to build task 'gems:install'
The instructions to install declarative_authorization at GitHub recommend a different process, which I also followed but still couldn't get past rake:gems install.
Does anyone know what may be happening so I can get around this?
UPDATE: Here's what my config/environment.rb looks like:

Not sure how your environment is set up, but simply installing rake should do it. If you provide more detail (rvm, bundler, etc.) it may be of help.
gem install rake
Upon further inspection of your path, I see you're using RVM. If your paths are installed properly, you can either use the RVM Global gemset, execute the line above.
Another suggestion I have is checking out the CanCan railscast as that is the bigger norm for authorization these days, more supporters as well.
http://railscasts.com/episodes/192-authorization-with-cancan
"A few episodes ago we covered Declarative Authorization. While it is an excellent authorization plugin for Rails it can be a little heavy for simpler sites. After writing the Railscast on Declarative Authorization Ryan Bates looked for an alternative solution and, failing to find one that suited his needs, decided to write his own, CanCan." - RBates
After seeing your environment, let's try to separate the environments a little. Do this.
rvm gemset create some_other_name
rvm gemset use some_other_name
bundle install
See if this isolates your environment enough.
EDIT: I don't use rake gems:install anymore. You have bundler installed, and I'm assuming you want to use it. I do use rails g gemname:install when the documentation for such exists, I'm going to look at the railscasts again and see what rbates is telling you.
On the CANCAN github page, it says: In Rails 3, add this to your Gemfile and run the bundle command.
gem "cancan".

Trouble installing Mongoid with Rails 3 on Windows

In my Gemfile:
gem "mongoid", "~> 2.3"
gem "bson_ext", "~> 1.4"
When I run bundle install I get the error below:
Bundler could not find compatible versions for gem "activemodel":
In Gemfile:
mongoid (~> 2.3) x86-mingw32 depends on
activemodel (~> 3.1) x86-mingw32
rails (= 3.0.6) x86-mingw32 depends on
activemodel (3.0.6)
I've tried pointing to github for the version, as is suggested in some other posts, but when I do this and run bundle install, I get another error:

Any tips are appreciated. Thanks!
If I recall correctly, bson_ext needs to be built natively. This means that somehow you must build it on Windows. The errors are pointing to x86-mingw32, which can be downloaded from here
The reason you would need that is because there are a couple of libraries that are platform dependent. Hope this sets you in the right direction.

Using ActiveSupport in Ruby 1.9.2 fails

I am requiring ActiveSupport in a Ruby script like so:
require 'rubygems'
require 'active_support/core_ext/hash'
to use some_hash.with_indifferent_access.
In Ruby 1.8 that worked fine but Ruby 1.9 throws the following exception:
<internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require': no such file to load -- active_support/core_ext/hash (LoadError)
from <internal:lib/rubygems/custom_require>:29:in `require'
from backup.rb:3:in `<main>'
What is the correct way to do this in Ruby 1.9.2?
Ran into this same issue with ruby 1.9.2 and activesupport 2.3.5. Ran gem update activesupport, updated to 3.2.9, and the issue went away.
First, Ruby 1.9 includes rubygems already, so you don't need to include that.
Secondly, this works fine for me under Ruby 1.9.1 and Ruby 1.9.2 with ActiveSupport 3.0.3. Are you sure that you have the activesupport gem installed properly under the same Ruby environment that you are testing with? (Perhaps ruby --version and gem list might show something awry.)
