Sounds like you’ve got a weird file somewhere where rails expected to  
find I18n data (config/locales unless you’ve changed it)

Appreciate the help FC.

The only file that is in config/locales is en.yml. I haven’t changed or  
moved anything that I am aware of. How do I make yml a known file type?

can not load translations from  
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/activesupport-3.0.0.beta4/lib/active\_support/locale/en.yml,  
the file type yml is not known

/config/locales/en.yml

# Sample localization file for English. Add more files in this directory

for  
other locales.

# See [rails-i18n/rails/locale at master · svenfuchs/rails-i18n · GitHub](http://github.com/svenfuchs/rails-i18n/tree/master/rails%2Flocale)

for  
starting points.

Yea, I gave up, kinda. Thanks for confirming and inputing the bug. Did  
you  
put me in the notes as a co-conspirator? I would totally test the  
newness if  
that was available to the public…or is it…

The deal was I would run ruby -v, gem -v and rails -v and get the latest  
install info; but, the errors would reference the previous version. I  
ended  
up reinstalling the OS and starting from scratch. Different set of  
issues. I  
even tried a shot at ubuntu…

I’m not discouraged though. Everything was running lean before I got all  
excited and upgraded and reality kicked me in the face. I’m reading all  
the  
manuals thoroughly and didn’t want to hound the group with every error I  
came up with.

I do have some new inquiries regarding project rails.

Why does it seem like sqlite is preferred over mysql? It seems like it  
may  
be due to transaction support; but, isn’t that just an innodb engine  
option  
when creating your mysql db  
Is there native JSON support? The active record stuff is rather amazing.  
What’s the easiest way to make a json object request and retain the  
pattern  
to a json response. make sense? I want to send the message down a tube  
or  
clothes line and get the same thing back but better…  
Thor? Should I dig deeper into this?

I’ve been reading all the ruby shtuff I can get my hands on too. i think  
i  
like it but i’m not sure why. Is it fair that I’m learning as I go and  
the  
most recent is always going to seem easier because I’m more aware and  
understand more.

This is f\*cking great BTW

I have the same problem. I report problem to lighthouse

Here’s the last email about that I decided not to send:  
ruby -v  
ruby 1.9.3dev (2010-07-06 trunk 28554) [i686-linux]  
gem -v  
1.3.7  
rails -v  
Rails 3.0.0.beta4

I’m confused. Why are the files in lib all 1.9.1 and the -v command  
shows me  
1.9.3?
