Hassan,

rubygems.org is (again) the definitive source:

http://update.gemcutter.org/2010/02/20/rubygems-org-move-complete.html

gemcutter.org redirects to rubygems.org.

The reference to rubygems.org is out of date. Here’s what my gem
env (or gem sources --list) returns:

You can add them (and remove the no longer operative one) from the
command line; for more info

gem help sources

I know that sounds trivial, and the thread is two weeks old, but are you
sure you are connected to the Internet during that tests? It took me
yesterday 2 hours to find that problem on my local staging environment.
Due
to configuration problems I could connect via ssh and remote control,
but my
network did not route requests from the staging to the Internet, the
just
got lost.

Ah, crap. Guess I missed that memo :slight_smile:

Never mind, then, and sorry for the noise.

It seems the problem is already solved, as noted in the external
source: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.ruby.rails/264228

It was a network problem.

Actually it wasn’t trivial. It helped me :0)

After the RubyGem/Bundler update mess yesterday, I was afraid there
was yet another problem with my set up. Turns out my Time Machine’s 5
GHz network was insanely unstable and caused the error. If it weren’t
for your post, I would have spent hours searching for the problem (as
I’m a Rails newbie). A big thank you to you Mr. Melzer is in order,
so “Thank you!”
