undefined method `path' for Gem:Module (NoMethodError)

[Dani Dani]

Hi,
when running - 'ruby setup.rb' I get the following error message:

C:\rubygems-1.3.7>ruby setup.rb
C:/rubygems-1.3.7/lib/rubygems/source_index.rb:68:in
installed_spec_directories': undefined method `path' for Gem:Module
(NoMethodError)

Ruby version is ruby-1.9.2-p0.
Any idea ?

Thanks.

Dani

Thank you all.

UFFFFF, I have managed installing Ruby 1.9.2 & Rails 3 on windows.
The following links has helped:
http://accidentaltechnologist.com/ruby-on-rails/running-rails-3-on-windows/
and
http://johnivanoff.blogspot.com/2010/09/ruby-192-rails-3-clean-install-on.html

with the combination of the two I did it !.

BUT, I will also try the next to install also on linux (ubuntu).

I just don't understand why it should be that difficult to install
rails.

I hope this one will help all windows users.

I also tried to install Rails on Win2k3.
But every gem operation drop this kind of error:

What I can do to install rail?

The gem installable with only this:

set RUBYOPT=
ruby --disable-gems setup.rb


But I don't know how to install the rails.

This is very disturbing thing. I want to use only RedMine, it needs
Rail... :-(

What is the magic you did you can install it?

Thanks:

is not that rails is hard to install , is that rails moves fast, it does not have the constrains we are used to with other frameworks, rails is open source, gems are free
and is easy to learn , so rails changes fast, if you read a book or a tutorial today it may not be useful in a month. Other technologies are sedentary because they take much more time to learn , expensive , proprietary and to get advice you have to pay an "expert". Since everything windows related is sedentary so windows is not ideal for rails.

You must have ruby 1.9.2, this looks like 1.9.1, or is it just a
strangely named dir? Use
ruby -v
to find out.

@Colin Law

its weird but thats the correct name of the dir

[Dani Dani]

Hi dd,

As I have mentioned above, do what the following link instructs to do:
http://accidentaltechnologist.com/ruby-on-rails/running-rails-3-on-windows/

it worked for me.

if the above link does not help, try the following link:
http://johnivanoff.blogspot.com/2010/09/ruby-192-rails-3-clean-install-on.html

Hope this helps.

Regards,

[durumdara]

Hi!

I tried to check the dirs, but this is the real name!

C:\Ruby192\bin>ruby -v
ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18) [i386-mingw32]

But the directories are "191".

:-(

May I can install rail/gem on older versions of ruby?

Thanks:
dd

Hi!

I solved the problem. But very hard to install redmine to Windows.
First: the ruby must be 1.8.7
Next: the gem is in installer is the only gem what usable for it.
And: the rails must be a specific version.
And: because of Windows, all of the gem installations (for example:
mongrel) needs to define platform, because there is no make in
Windows.
And: use mysql than pgsql.

Thanks for your help:
