Rake 0.8.7 needs Ruby 1.8?

Hello…

I am trying to install a Ruby application called Redmine. In order to
create database structure, I have to execute this command: rake
db:migrate

When I run it, a message telling that msvcrt-ruby18.dll was not found
(I’m attaching the complete message). I have downloaded the last ruby
version (1.9.1) and when I install it, it automatically installed rake
0.8.7. Since I have msvcrt-ruby191.dll, why rake is trying to load the
wrong DLL?

This is the environment setting:

RubyGems Environment:

  • RUBYGEMS VERSION: 1.3.6
  • RUBY VERSION: 1.9.1 (2010-01-10 patchlevel 378) [i386-mingw32]
  • INSTALLATION DIRECTORY: C:/Ruby19/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1
  • RUBY EXECUTABLE: C:/Ruby19/bin/ruby.exe
  • EXECUTABLE DIRECTORY: C:/Ruby19/bin
  • RUBYGEMS PLATFORMS:
    • ruby
    • x86-mingw32
  • GEM PATHS:
    • C:/Ruby19/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1
    • C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/.gem/ruby/1.9.1
  • GEM CONFIGURATION:
    • :update_sources => true
    • :verbose => true
    • :benchmark => false
    • :backtrace => false
    • :bulk_threshold => 1000
  • REMOTE SOURCES:

And these are the gems that were installed automatically:

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

actionmailer (2.3.5)
actionpack (2.3.5)
activerecord (2.3.5)
activeresource (2.3.5)
activesupport (2.3.5)
mysql (2.8.1)
rack (1.0.1)
rails (2.3.5)
rake (0.8.7)
rmagick (2.12.0)
rubygems-update (1.3.6)

Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks

This means “you’re running some gem or other that has binaries for 1.8
but not 1.9” what’s your backtrace? (rake --trace I think).

Hello Roger… by executing that command, I receive this response:

Thanks for doing that. The backtrace I even more desire would be
$ rake db:migrate --trace

My first guess is a bad mysql gem [?] but the backtrace will tell us
better.

Rake do not depend directly of Ruby runtime library either for 1.8 or
1.9, as is pure ruby.

What you might be experiencing is a gem that your application depends
on that do not provide binaries for Ruby 1.9, the version fo Ruby
you’re running.

Please provide the output of “rake db:migrate --trace” from inside
your application folder and not your home/profile directory as you
executed in response to Roger comments.

- x86-mingw32
 -http://rubygems.org/

mysql (2.8.1)
rack (1.0.1)
rails (2.3.5)
rake (0.8.7)
rmagick (2.12.0)
rubygems-update (1.3.6)

My guess will be around rmagick gem, as I’m unaware of it being
distributed as fat-binaries and even less for Ruby 1.9 support.

Since you’re running Ruby from RubyInstaller, those are my
assumptions, but I might be wrong.
