It seems like whenever I get around one issue another one surfaces… now when I try to do anything with my app (rake db:migrate, script/ server), I get the following error: /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/libxml-ruby-0.9.7/lib/ libxml\_ruby.bundle: [BUG] Bus Error ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) [i686-darwin9] Abort trap * * * Anyone have any idea what I can do to resolve this? Thanks in advance for any help. ---
