Rails 2.1.1 Bug?

Rails

Rails 2.1.1 worked find in my development environment, but I was
unable to start the mongrel cluster in production. I received the
following error:

/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.1.1/lib/active_support/

Has anyone else run into this?

Thanks!

it’s because you’ve got an older version of ruby, where the thing
giving the version of rexml was REXML::Version and not REXML::VERSION

update that file to what it is on edge
(http://github.com/rails/rails/tree/master/activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/rexml.rb
) to make the pain go away.
