Hello,

I need to install file\_column plugin but I got an error message.

This is the command I use:  
./script/plugin install  
[http://opensvn.csie.org/rails\_file\_column/plugins/file\_column/trunk](http://opensvn.csie.org/rails_file_column/plugins/file_column/trunk)

This is the error:  
Cannot find gem for Rails =1.1.4:  
Install the missing gem with ‘gem install -v=1.1.4 rails’, or  
change environment.rb to define RAILS\_GEM\_VERSION with your desired  
version.

What should I do? change environment.rb? is this a problem?

Thanks

look up google for “file\_column” and go to sabastian’s page (should be  
first entry in the google 10 first list) and just put in ruby  
script/plugin instal and the http adress that is there in the directory  
of your current appication (say you were working under  
c:\instantrails\rails\_apps\work\myapplication

and then, walla! there you go.

cheers, mate.

It’s what I did 🙂  
It was working with rails 1.1.4 but with 1.1.6 I got the error

I don’t think it’s anything to do with the plugin… You’ve upgraded the  
rails version and removed the 1.1.4 version, you just need to update  
config/environment.rb to tell it you want to use 1.1.6. Hope that  
helps… -dan
