Infinite Wait

I got visualruby today.
Whenever I try to run it, though.
It stares back at me for an infinite amount of time.
Any help?

Hi Bob:

What operating system are you using?

Exactly what happened on each step of the install?

Go to visualruby.net > Download for instructions.

OS: Ubuntu Studio 12.10 - Quantal Queztal
Everything was good and fast, until I got to running the actual program.
I did everything on that page.
That’s how I downloaded and installed visualruby.
Thanks!

Starting vr.
No.

Do you mean starting Visualruby with vr or do you mean running your
programm written in VisualRuby ??

Are you using rvm ?

Klaus

What version of ruby are you running?

at the prompt enter:

ruby -v

You need version 1.9

From running ruby -v:
ruby 1.9.3p194 (2012-04-20 revision 35410) [i686-linux]

Yes.

Hi Bob:

Try pressing ctrl-c when it hangs, and post the output here.

Also try this at the command prompt:

cd ~/visualruby/examples/drag_drop
vr

This will run vr in the above directory, skipping the step where vr
scans your home directory for vr projects. If this hangs, press ctrl-c
and post output here.

You may need to uninstall everything and start over. Read the output
from the install for cles to your problem.

Yours,
Eric

In your home directory, you should see a folder:

home/visualruby/examples

Is this folder on your machine?
