Strange error

Rails
1

I’m getting a very strange error in a very vanilla Rails app setup:

compile error
./script/…/config/…/app/views/home/index.rhtml:1: parse error,
unexpected $, expecting kEND
_erbout = ‘’; _erbout.concat " <div id=“index_main”>\n"

… ?

Anyone know what this might be? I installed the Login Engine and the
error started. I’m using a Windows machine and I’d like to delete
existing session files, but I’m not sure where they’re stored …
Anyone can tell me?

Any help would be appreciated,

Ruby 1.8.4? Remove tabs. Use spaces instead. Windows + Ruby 1.8.4 has
issues with tab characters.

Yes! Thank you very much …

Is this a permanent choke? Or is this a bug that’s going to be sorted
out … ?

Usually this happens when you either don’t properly close a set of
quotes, brackets, or a block. There is probably something amiss in your
view template.

I had the same error and downgraded to Ruby 1.8.2 which fixed it.

If you can isolate it to a tab character somewhere in the login
engine, file a bug on the rails engines collaboa site
(http://dev.rails-engines.org, preferrably being as specific as you
can as to where the offending tab is) and it will get sorted.
