Hi all,
I've installed Redmine 0.9.5 on Windows and I get an error when 
executing the following command:

C:\Ruby187\bin>rake -f "c:\Program Files\redmine-0.9.5\Rakefile" 
redmine:email:receive_imap RAILS_ENV="production" host=imap.google.com 
username=redmine@xxxxxxxxxx.ca password=xxxxxxxx ssl=SSL port=993 
--trace

Result

(in C:/Ruby187/bin)
Invoke redmine:email:receive_imap (first_time)
Invoke environment (first_time)
Execute environment
Execute redmine:email:receive_imap
rake aborted!

Some research has pointed to a problem with "windows ruby not being able 
to handle IPv6"

I logged an issue at Redmine issuelog and they pointed me here.

Any idea / suggestions on how to address this issue?

Thanks

Leonardo

got this once "The storage control blocks were destroyed."
For me it meant "try it again your wireless is flaky" but I assume not 
so in your case?

Not really.. good try though... ;-)
It is a amazon cloud instance server running Windows Server 2008. I 
heard that Ruby on Windows is getting trouble with IPv6...
Not sure what to make of that...

If I disable IPv6 at that server, would that work or kill my rig?

Thanks

Two things:

1) move Redmine installation outside Program Files, path with spaces are 
not good for Ruby.

2) From the folder installation, seems you're using RubyInstaller 
(Ruby187). That is correct?

Can you create a simple test case of invoking imap *without* Redmine 
installation? In that way, we can try reproduce the issue.

The simplest test case that exposes the issue the faster we can 
investigate and perhaps solve the issue.
