I don’t know if this is a bug or just my misunderstanding of how things should work, but I thought it might be useful to share. I installed the radiant-0.6.0rc1.gem on my Ubuntu system in the usual way. Everything seems to go into /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/. Here’s a list of what’s currently installed: BlueCloth-1.0.0/ activerecord-1.15.2/ radiant-0.5.2/ RedCloth-3.0.4/ activesupport-1.3.1/ radiant-0.6.0/ actionmailer-1.2.5/ activesupport-1.4.1/ radius-0.5.1/ actionmailer-1.3.2/ cgi\_multipart\_eof\_fix-2.1/ rails-1.1.6/ actionpack-1.12.5/ daemons-1.0.4/ rails-1.2.2/ actionpack-1.13.2/ fastthread-0.6.4.1/ rake-0.7.1/ actionwebservice-1.1.6/ gem\_plugin-0.2.2/ rubygems-update-0.9.2/ actionwebservice-1.2.2/ mongrel-1.0.1/ sources-0.0.1/ activerecord-1.14.4/ mysql-2.7/ The Radiant binary went into /usr/bin: marshal@ubik[~]\> which radiant radiant is /usr/bin/radiant radiant is /usr/X11R6/bin/radiant marshal@ubik[~]\> radiant --version Radiant 0.6.0 Looks okay, so next I ran “radiant web/radiantsite” to setup my working directories and followed the rest of the installation instructions, ending up with a functioning radiant site. Days later, when I tried to run “ruby script/generate extensions myextension” from web/radiantsite, I discovered there wasn’t any generate script. My workaround was to copy everything from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/radiant-0.6.0 into web/radiantsite. Hope this is useful to someone. ---

Yeah, that s the idea with “instance mode”, you could start running with a stock Radiant version using the gem. > Days later, when I tried to run “ruby script/generate extensions > myextension” from web/radiantsite, I discovered there wasn’t any > generate script.

In that case you should use ‘gem unpack’ or svn checkout to keep in sync with radiant development branch. Maybe someone could add this to the Wiki? ## – Luis L.

Ahhhh… now I understand. Thanks Luis. On 3/4/07, Luis L. [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid) wrote: … ---

Yeah, I’d love a simple write-up of how to keep an install of Radiant 0.6 RC1 up to date. I don’t plan on keeping up with the development branch, but I would like to be able to quickly install and update extensions and upgrade to the release version of 0.6 when it becomes available. I successfully followed the instructions here: [http://radiantcms.org/](http://radiantcms.org/) blog/2007/02/04/radiant-0-6-release-candidate/ and http:// [forums.site5.com/showthread.php?t=14847](http://forums.site5.com/showthread.php?t=14847), so my [http://site5.com/](http://site5.com/) install should be fairly standard. I haven’t touched a line of Radiant code - all my tweaks are in the db. I’m eagerly awaiting an “official” comments function. In the meanwhile I just tell visitors to email me - keeping it simple 🙂 Martin O. [http://smpl.se/](http://smpl.se/)
