All,

I’m trying to download the ym4r plugin (or the cartographer plugin) from  
ruby-forge and it isn’t working. No error message displays - but no  
files are created either. The script/plugin command does work if I  
download a plugin from a different repository.

Any suggestions are appreciated. If it is down then any idea when it  
will be back online? Is there an alternate repository with these  
plugins?

Thanks,

Michael

I’m not sure why noone responded to this question because surely I’m not  
the only person who has encountered it. However, for anyone else who  
may be having this problem I was able to “work around” it by using  
RadRails | New | SVN and then browsing out the code from there. Not as  
simple as the command line but gets the job done.

Regards,

Michael
