Hey Guys, When I try to start up the console, I get the following to stdout: $ script/console Loading development environment (Rails 2.3.5) /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.5/lib/initializer.rb:271:in `require\_frameworks’:RuntimeError: RubyGem version error: rack(1.0.0 not ~\> 1.0.1) /usr/local/lib/site\_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:827:in `report_activate_error': RubyGem version error: rack(1.0.0 not ~> 1.0.1) (Gem::LoadError) from /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:261:in`activate’ from /usr/local/lib/site\_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:68:in `gem' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.3.5/lib/action_controller.rb:34 from /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in`gem\_original\_require’ from /usr/local/lib/site\_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom\_require.rb:31:in `require' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:156:in`require’ from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active\_support/dependencies.rb:521:in `new_constants_in' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:156:in`require’ … 8 levels… from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/irb/init.rb:250:in `load_modules' from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/irb/init.rb:21:in`setup’ from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/irb.rb:54:in `start’ from /usr/bin/irb:13 I’ve tried updating all of gems to no avail.
