Rails 1.1 and Ruby 1.8.3

Rails
1

I’ve seen that Rails 1.1 is not reliable with Ruby 1.8.2 so you should
upgrade to 1.8.4

I’m running ruby 1.8.3. What’s the story with it? Do I need to
upgrade before I try Rails 1.1?

Thanks

Rails fastcgi simply wont run with Ruby 1.8.3. So I suppose you do need
to
upgrade :slight_smile:

Weird,

I’m running lighty with fcgi and Rails 1.0 now.

So does your statement only apply to Apache setups?

Upgrade to 1.84 or you can go back down to 1.82 if you prefer.

And I know that the current Ubunutu is set a Ruby 1.8.3. I know a lot
of people are using ubuntu. I actually didnt have any problems with it
(for 1.0 anyway).

Definitely do not use 1.83 with Rails 1.1:

Oh no - I am running Rails 1.0 and fully intend to update over the
weekend to ruby 1.8.4 before updating to Rails 1.1 as this is a
production server. I was merely responding to your statement that Rails
fastcgi simply won’t run with Ruby 1.8.3 and thought the subject does
say Rails 1.1, your statement seemed to encompass Rails 1.0.

So far, my usage on my development system hasn’t broken with Rails 1.1
but I haven’t tested everything out yet.

I have Ruby 1.8.4 packages for Ubuntu Breezy badger that were backported
from
Debian unstable.

wondering what is the proper way to upgrade on Ubuntu Breezy - install
ruby and libruby 1.8.4 from packages (either from orcaware or dapper) -
then what? download and install gems from source ? thks.

I would show you the error I got but my production server is already
updated.

You are sure you are running Rails 1.1 on that fastcgi process and not
1.0?
