Hi  
I’ve been battling this for a while. I’m trying to set up RadRails on  
my macosx. I configured the ruby interpretor as so:  
/Applications/Locomotive2/Bundles/standardRailsSept2006.locobundle/  
i386/bin/ruby  
Which is def the right location. But when I go to create a new project  
I get this error in my console:  
/Applications/Locomotive2/Bundles/standardRailsSept2006.locobundle/  
i386/bin/ruby: /Applications/Locomotive2/Bundles/  
standardRailsSept2006.locobundle/i386/bin/ruby: cannot execute binary  
file

Has anyone seen this before? Or is able to help me?  
Cheers

I tried Locomotive and didn’t really like it.

Try this instead:

[http://blog.duncandavidson.com/2006/04/sandboxing\_rail.html](http://blog.duncandavidson.com/2006/04/sandboxing_rail.html)

It’s a little more work up front, but I found it a better solution  
than Locomotive in the long run.

Post back if you have more questions.
