I’m trying to install Bruce P.’ ModelSecurity gem, but it keeps asking me if I want to install rails too (I have already installed rails). It exits if I say no and crashes if I say yes: C:\>“c:\ruby\bin\ruby.exe” “c:\ruby\bin\gem” install model\_security\_generator Attempting local installation of ‘model\_security\_generator’ Local gem file not found: model\_security\_generator\*.gem Attempting remote installation of ‘model\_security\_generator’ Install required dependency rails?

I just ran “gem update rails” and it seems satisfied: C:\>gem update rails C:\>“c:\ruby\bin\ruby.exe” “c:\ruby\bin\gem” update rails Upgrading installed gems… Attempting remote upgrade of rails Attempting remote installation of ‘rails’ Successfully installed rails\_analyzer\_tools, version 1.1.0 Installing RDoc documentation for rails\_analyzer\_tools-1.1.0… Attempting remote upgrade of rake Attempting remote installation of ‘rake’ Successfully installed rake, version 0.7.0 Installing RDoc documentation for rake-0.7.0… All gems up to date What am I missing? thanks, b ---

Ben- ``` If your gem command does not recognize the --include-dependencies ``` command then you have an old version of rubygems. You need to update your rubygems install: > gem update --system ``` Then the --include-dependencies will work. ``` Cheers- -Ezra On Jan 23, 2006, at 4:15 PM, Ben M. wrote: > version 1.0.0 --include-dependencies > C:\>“c:\ruby\bin\ruby.exe” “c:\ruby\bin\gem” install rails – > dependencies… should I be worried? > removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid > [http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails](http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails) -Ezra Z.
