RMagick installed BUT "no such file to load -- RMagick"

Rails
1

Hi.

I have ImageMagick and RMagick successfully installed:
#gem list | grep -i rmagick
rmagick (2.3.0)

Unfourtunately, my RoR project will still not start.
I always see the following error in my apache error logs:

[error] /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in
gem_original_require' [error] no such file to load -- RMagick [error] ( [error] MissingSourceFile [error] ) [error] \tfrom /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:inrequire’
…

Any ideas?

It even works if i try to load RMagick in the console, but not if i
access my application via browser!

# script/console
Loading development environment (Rails 2.0.2)

require ‘RMagick’

I got this same exact problem ( with newer versions, rmagick 2.8.0,
rails 2.2.2)
Did you ever find a solution?
Anyone else got any ideas?

I have teh same problem…

IRB:
irb(main):001:0> require ‘RMagick’
=> true

script/console (of my app):

require ‘RMagick’
=> []

include Magick
=> Object

image = Magick::ImageList.new()
=> []
scene=

But the same code in mail Controller gives me:
no such file to load – RMagick

I don’t know where the problem could be…

I had the same problem, and found the solution here, by Peturrr:
RMagick problems + solution

Do not use:
sudo gem install rmagick

Peturrr solved this by uninstalling the gem and installing the
precompiled rmagick ubuntu package from the universe repos.:
sudo gem uninstall rmagick
sudo apt-get install librmagick-ruby

This solution solved my problem as well.

In my case the reason was no capitzalized R and M,
which worked fine on windows but not on my new machine.

So not the same issue as OP
