looks like “gem update” killed my application.
it was a very simplistic application that i carefully cooked under
ubuntu
after the selfprepared recipe:
Oh, at least i know the application-wide name of the cure now
hehe, I am quite happy that i am not the admin, who may fail to know all
rails apps being developed by developers working in his realm and
therefore
fail to freeze all things at once…
I detected recently that an update of rubygems to version 0.93 had
some problems.
After installing rubygems it was not possible to update any gem.
Only solution (I found):
Download rubygems 0.94 to disk, unpack it in you ruby folder and
execute the setup.rb
not sure if a strange*) gem rails-1.2.3.6906 was an indirect killer,
but definitely as for now I am
motivated to use plugins more, more and more…
That’s a beta rails version. As for why gem is now pulling from the
beta rails gem server, I don’t know. Those beta releases don’t go to
the official rubyforge servers.
