Site install - error finding gem

Ruby Apps Radiant CMS
1

All,

I’ve tested install on site 5 several times since the release and am
following the exact steps illustrated in the wiki -
http://dev.radiantcms.org/radiant/wiki/HowToSite5 - it gives me the same
exact error across accounts. When I try to unpack the application I get
the
following error:

-bash-3.00$ ~/gems/bin/radiant --database mysql radapp
/usr/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:301:in report_activate_error': Could not find RubyGem radiant (> 0) (Gem::LoadError) from /usr/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:238:in activate’
from /usr/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:76:in
active_gem_with_options' from /usr/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:50:in gem’
from /home/tynewave/gems/bin/radiant:15

I would be very grateful if some1 could help me.

Right. Take a look at the date of the post that recommends the
unpack command. That was accurate for 0.5. Now, with 0.6, the
recommended method of installation is through the gem binary, as
suggested in the wiki.

From what I have surmised, installing into a subdirectory is very
difficult. I would recommend using a domain pointer into a
subdirectory – that should be no more difficult than a root
installation.

I found the following on site5’s forums when i encountered this issue:

http://forums.site5.com/showthread.php?t=14847&highlight=rubygem+radiant

This page points out that the gem should be unpacked as follows:

$ gem unpack radiant

… instead of doing what the radiant wiki suggests …

$ ~/gems/bin/radiant --database mysql radapp

i’m still wrestling with it, though, as i’m rtrying unsuccessfully to
have it serve from a subfolder instead of the root. grr argh.
