How to set GEM_PATH in warbler?

Ruby JRuby
1

Is it possible to set a different GEM_PATH for a .war created in warble?

I want to share the gems directory among many applications on the same
server.

I have tried many options and none worked

  • in warble.rb putting: config.webxml.gem.path =
    “C:/jruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8”

  • changing the environment variable GEM_PATH

  • changing the java parameter for the command that starts jboss with
    set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Dgem.path=“C:/jruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8”

In all the cases, if I display Gem.path it always shows this:
[“C:/jboss-4.0.5.GA/server/default/./tmp/deploy/tmp12822joninv-exp.war/WEB-INF/gems”,

“file:/C:/jboss-4.0.5.GA/server/default/lib/jruby-complete-1.1.6.jar!/META-INF/jruby.home/lib/ruby/gems/1.8”]

Thanks for your help

This should work. Can you check and make sure that there’s a context
parameter in tmp/war/WEB-INF/web.xml that looks like:

gem.path C:/jruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8

Thanks for the quick response.

The web.xml has exactly the lines you mentioned.

gem.path
C:/jruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8

It is the same path I get with: jruby -S gem environment

I added this line to the warbler.rb so that no gems are included on the
war.
config.gems = []

and effectively no gems are included.

but when the jboss server starts it prints this:

Thank you.

I separated the gems in another directory, and modified GEM_PATH
pointing to
it, and everything works: script/console , mongrel and JBoss.

I assume that Rails 2.1.2 is installed in your gem path? I can’t
really think of anything else that would be the problem. You can set
GEM_PATH in the environment and start up your rails application with
mongrel or webrick?
