Hi everyone,

I’m trying to get workling+starling to work but I’m getting a  
“uninitialized constant MemCache” error. When I do require  
‘rubygems’; require ‘memcache’ in irb I don’t get errors though.  
Anyone know what’s wrong?

Using Rails 2.3 (edge as of several days ago), ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11  
patchlevel 72) [i486-linux]

Thanks,  
Ramon T.

It seems that I was getting the error because I was following old  
instructions when I installed it. I looked around and ended up using
