Can't start rails app: vendor/rails/railties/lib/initializer

Hello,

after some months of not using Ruby On Rails, I want to do more work
with it, but I can’t start one of my rails projects:

sh-3.2# mongrel_rails start
** Starting Mongrel listening at 0.0.0.0:3000
** Starting Rails with development environment…
/Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in

from /usr/bin/mongrel_rails:19
sh-3.2#

I think I have installed rails 2.1 and 1.2.5, not sure how to check it.

I figure the problem is in the environment.rb in this line:

RAILS_GEM_VERSION = ‘1.2.5’ unless defined? RAILS_GEM_VERSION

I have some other rails project that use that line but with other rails
version, and they work ok.

Any clue ?

thanks!

so, why ?

because if there is a rails folder, boot.rb assumes that you want to
load rails from that folder.

…vendor/plugins/will_paginate
…vendor/rails/

all my other rails projects doesn’t have the rails folder …

I’ve just deleted the rails folder and now the rails application runs ok

so, why ?
