Hi,

## This morning I sat down and nutted out a way of getting Rails 2.3 to play nicely with Ruby 1.9.1. Here’s a guide so you can do the same: [frozenplague.net](http://frozenplague.net/2009/01/ruby-191-rubygems-rails/)

“When installing the latest Rubygems 1.3.1 it will copy the gem  
executable to  
/usr/local/bin/ruby!”

Yay! Others have suffered as I thought only I have suffered!

(In this one case, at least;)

Just a little update. Right now I have the mysql, pg, hpricot and thin  
gems running on this setup. The guide is on the post that I posted  
earlier: [frozenplague.net](http://frozenplague.net/2009/01/ruby-191-rubygems-rails/).  
There are no forseeable problems that stand out to me, everything  
appears to run fine for me.
