Morning, I’ve been keeping an eye on Radiant for a while and this morning I found I actually had some time to play with it. I have a Mac Mini running OS 10.4.6 and I have been using Locomotive which has Rails 1.1.2 and Ruby 1.8.4. I have setup three databases namely radiant\_dev, radiant\_test and radiant\_live. The problem I have is when I run the ruby script/setup\_database development command I get the following error. ## Loading development environment…FAILED ./script/…/config/environment.rb:10:in `require’: no such file to load radius (LoadError) from ./script/…/config/environment.rb:10 from script/setup\_database:78:in `load_environment' from script/setup_database:251:in`announce’ from script/setup\_database:77:in `load_environment' from script/setup_database:17:in`run’ from script/setup\_database:9:in `run’ from script/setup\_database:290 Does anybody have any ideas of what I am doing wrong?

The error above is an indication that Radius (the tag parsing library) is not installed. If you are using the gem try: % gem install radius If you’ve checked it out via Subversion there is something else wrong. Check to see if vendor/radius exists. – John L.

John I installed from the subversion repository. All I have in my vendor dir is bluecloth, plugins and a rails folder. Is it better to install Radiant through Gem? If so, you don’t happen to have a link to instructions for doing so? Thanks for your help Harvey On 27/6/06 14:23, “John W.

You should have: $ ls -l vendor/ total 0 drwxr-xr-x 12 jlong jlong 408 Jun 19 16:13 bluecloth drwxr-xr-x 3 jlong jlong 102 Jun 19 16:13 plugins drwxr-xr-x 10 jlong jlong 340 Jun 20 20:06 radius drwxr-xr-x 12 jlong jlong 408 Jun 19 16:15 rails drwxr-xr-x 10 jlong jlong 340 Jun 19 16:16 redcloth Perhaps the svn command was interrupted when you checked out? Try `svn update vendor` or if that doesn’t work, try checking it out again. > Is it better to install Radiant > through Gem? If so, you don’t happen to have a link to instructions for > doing so? I didn’t know if you were using the beta gem or not ([http://radiantcms.org/beta-gem/](http://radiantcms.org/beta-gem/)). The beta gem isn’t recommended for production use yet, but if you just want to get something going quickly it’s highly recommended. – John L.

Harvey, I’ve successfully setup radiant using Locomotive 2.06 on Mac OS X 10.4.6 from the subversion server a number of times. Honestly, I’d try doing another checkout or even try updating your existing checkout. Every once in a while. I experience weirdness with subversion like this. Also, here is a list of gotchas you should watch out for: 1. If you plan on using ANY rails or application specific command- line scripts, you MUST load the Locomotive bundle path into the Terminal app. Right click the name of your rails project in Locomotive and select “Open in Terminal”. You should see something like this when Terminal launches: Spike:~ jsobol$ source /private/var/tmp/folders.501/TemporaryItems/ D263A150-05FF-11DB- AD67-000D936BC702-10169-00000A211927652F.environment.bash 1. Make sure your Locomotive project is synced with your app’s development or production environment. Click the Info button while your project is selected and choose either development or production from the Run Mode drop down list. 2. Don’t forget to restart your rails app when you change ANYTHING in config/database.yml. Select your project in Locomotive and hit the restart / run button. Also, Locomotive has a pretty comprehensive guide that’s found by selecting “Locomotive Help” from the Help menu. ~ ryan ~ ---

Your problem is probably that you’re sitting behind a firewall and you can’t get to the radius repository (which is served over the svn:// protocol rather than http:// like the other externals). If you can’t get around your firewall, then doing a “gem install radius” will also get you through. Daniel. ---

John, Dan and Ryan I now have a working copy of Radiant on Mac. Thanks Guys for the help. In case anybody has a similar problem, the issue I had was with Subversion and the SVN:EXTERNAL command. Daniel correctly guessed that it was a firewall issue. To quickly get round the problem I just downloaded Radius and Redcloth. Now the fun begins Harvey On 27/6/06 19:59, “John W.
