Hello,  
I haven’t worked on my Rails project in a while and today I decided to  
shake the dust off her and give her a go…

I did an svn up on my entire project which also updated the svn  
external “rails” in RAILS\_ROOT/vendor.

When I tried to start webrick, it spit out this message and died:  
script/server  
=\> Booting WEBrick…  
DEPRECATION WARNING: Reloadable::Subclasses has been deprecated and  
has no effect. See [http://www.rubyonrails.org/deprecation](http://www.rubyonrails.org/deprecation) for  
details. (called from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.5/  
lib/action\_controller/caching.rb:526)

Three questions:

1. Why is it using actionpack in /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems instead  
of RAILS\_ROOT/vendor/rails?
2. Why is webrick not booting?
3. How do I update the stuff in RAILS\_ROOT/script (which is a part of  
my svn project, but obviously not Rails)?

Thanks for the help.

P.S. One more question. How do I make an svn external checkout of  
the latest stable version of Rails (I think currently mine is set to  
Rail’s HEAD and I’m getting development versions)?
