Everything works like a charm locally, but running in production
(Dreamhost shared with Passenger if it matters), “These gems that this
application depends on are missing \n -rmagick”
Rmagick is installed on dreamhost, but I have also copied the gem into
the vendor directory, so it’s not even found within it’s local files.
I’m using config.gem ‘rmagick’, which works locally, but I can’t imagine
how this could be a dreamhost issue since the gem sits inside vendor. On
the other hand I can’t imagine how this could be a production specific
problem either, so as you can see I am lost

Rmagick has native extensions right? Maybe you need…
rake gems:build # Build any native extensions for
unpacked gems
?

I didn’t even consider that. I know there are separate windows and linux
versions and I did vendorize the right one.
When I run “rake gems:build”, it exits without a whisper. No errors but
maybe not much else either. It didn’t help though.
When I try gem install rmagick --install-dir=/home//gems it throws
“Failed to build gem native extension”.
Below that there’s also
“Can’t find Magick-config in
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games”
I have absolutely no idea what it’s trying to do and why in that
directory
Messy, but I don’t think even this is the source of my problem.
Presumably dreamhost’s own rmagick install is functioning correctly, but
when I clear it from vendor it still doesn’t manage to find the native
install.
Wow, just got it going.
replaced config.gem ‘rmagick’ with
require ‘rubygems’
gem ‘rmagick’
require ‘rmagick’
Old fashioned did the trick. Don’t know why, don’t care, I need to get
some rest.
Thanks.
