Hello,

I’ve been using Radiant and building my site using Webrick and felt  
it was time to switch it over to Apache. Unfortunately things weren’t  
so smooth.

[Sun Aug 27 19:11:23 2006] [warn] FastCGI: (dynamic) server “/Users/  
content/Sites/tackletech/public/dispatch.fcgi” restarted (pid 15018)

Cannot find gem for Radiant =0.5.2:  
Install the missing gem with ‘gem install -v=0.5.2 radiant’, or  
change config/instance.yml to define ‘Gem Version’ with your desired  
version.

Radiant is installed and running fine in Webrick. Is there something  
I need to put in environment.rb to tell it where radiant is?

Thanks

By chance are you running Webrick on Locomotive? Locomotive has it’s own  
Ruby and Rubygems. In order to get it to work for apache you will need  
to install Rubygems and Radiant for your local copy of ruby.

I’ll try out Mongrel, thanks for the tip.

You seem to be on OS X, mongrel works fine on it and is easier to work  
with than FCGI.
