Hi,

I’m using Ruby-1.8.7, Rubygems-1.3.1, Rails-2.2.2 and  
Rake-0.8.3.

But getting EdgeRails via

```
 rails test
 cd test
 rake rails:freeze:edge

```

yields

```
 rake aborted!
 wrong number of arguments (2 for 1)

```

What is wrong with this? The same error pops up with  
Rails-2.2.1 in combination with Rake-0.8.1.

Hints appreciated!

Michael

Can you freeze your current version?

rake rails:freeze:gems

I have the same Ruby version, Gem version, Rake, and Rails version and  
I didn’t have any issues freezing Edge Rails. I’m on OSX Leopard.

Yes. This worked. But not `rake rails:freeze:edge`.

Anyhow, I’ve found the problem. It was the ruby version. Together with  
rubygems-1.3.1, rake-0.8.3 and rails-2.2.2  
the listed ruby versions behaved as follows:

ruby-1.8.6-p111 OK  
ruby-1.8.7-p0 failed  
ruby-1.8.7-p72 OK

So I guess you run ruby-1.8.7 with a patchlevel greater than zero.

Thanks for the hint!

Michael
