I’ve used putty to SSH in to our solaris system as root:  
Here is what happens when i try to install rails:

# gem install rails -include-dependencies -p [http://saiproxy:3128](http://saiproxy:3128)

Attempting local installation of ‘rails’  
Local gem file not found: rails\*.gem  
Attempting remote installation of ‘rails’  
Successfully installed rails-1.0.0

So my question is why won’t it go to rails1.1?? I need it for the rails  
1.1 app i have been developing on my local machine.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks,  
Chris

# gem install rails --version \>= 1.1 --include-dependencies

or know for certain that the proxy is necessary for you, I’d download  
the gems and install them locally.

Here’s at least a start on that:

Down load the rails gem from [http://tinyurl.com/hn6dh](http://tinyurl.com/hn6dh) and then

# gem install rails-1.1.0.gem

The problem with this is that you’ll have to also download the  
dependencies.

# gem dependency rails

Will give you a list of what you need, although if it does, I don’t know  
why you wouldn’t be getting the correct version. So here is the list I  
see:

Gem rails-1.1.0  
Requires  
rake (\>= 0.7.0)  
activesupport (= 1.3.0)  
activerecord (= 1.14.0)  
actionpack (= 1.12.0)  
actionmailer (= 1.2.0)  
actionwebservice (= 1.1.0)

If you use ‘–include-dependencies’, the dependent gems should  
automatically get downloaded and installed for you.
