[jruby] trouble installing cucumber

[emilybache]

Hi,

I'm trying to install cucumber for jruby. I'm following these
instructions:

http://wiki.github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/jruby-and-java

I have a JDK installed, and I have jruby and rake installed:

$ jruby --version
jruby 1.1.5 (ruby 1.8.6 patchlevel 114) (2008-11-03 rev 7996) [x86-
java]
[seemibac@SEL00173 /cygdrive/c/devtools]
$ jruby -S rake --version
rake, version 0.8.3

I'm on windows with cygwin. When I try to install cucumber, I get
this:

$ jruby -S gem install cucumber
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)
IOError: An established connection was aborted by the software in
your host machine (http://gems.rubyforge.org/gems/cucumber-0.4.4.gem)

So I guess my corporate firewall is throwing a spanner in the works. I
downloaded cucumber from here

http://github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/downloads

and unzipped it. Now I have a cucumber executable, but as soon as I
run it it says

$ ./cucumber
/usr/bin/env: ruby: No such file or directory

so clearly this cucumber doesn't know that I want it to run with
jruby. I tried to run the example as suggested, but that didn't work
either:

$ jruby -S cucumber features
C:/devtools/jruby-1.1.5/bin/cucumber:1: undefined method `cucumber'
for JRuby::Commands:Class (NoMethodError)


Please can someone help me to get my cucumber installation connected
to my jruby installation?

Can you install other gems?

yes, I think so:

Let's isolate one problem at a time.

Please start a normal Windows Command Prompt and try to install a Cucumber gem.

It worked from here:

C:\Users\Luis>jruby -S gem install cucumber

(::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::)

(::) U P G R A D I N G (::)

Thank you for installing cucumber-0.4.4.
Please be sure to read http://wiki.github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/upgrading
for important information about this release. Happy cuking!

(::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::) (::)

Successfully installed cucumber-0.4.4
1 gem installed

C:\Users\Luis>jruby -S cucumber --version
0.4.4

(calling cucumber --version also works)

The problem here is that jruby do not use shebangs but instead stick
to /usr/bin/env

What you're trying to accomplish is mix a native executable solution
with cygwin.

Would you mind update JRuby to a newer version? (like 1.4.0)?

Is more than just jruby with cucumber, is Jruby + cucumber wired through cygwin.

As I mentioned before, let's isolate individual issues and then see
where the problem lies.

Hi,

I'm sorry I had an old version of jruby, I misread the page and
obviously thought 1.1.5 > 1.4.0 which was rather stupid of me. Anyway
I installed the newer version, and the problem is still there.

I get exactly the same error message from both cygwin and a dos prompt:

C:\devtools>jruby -v
jruby 1.4.0RC1 (ruby 1.8.7 patchlevel 174) (2009-09-30 80c263b) (Java HotSpot(TM

C:\devtools>jruby -S gem install cucumber

IOError: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host
machine (http://gems.rubyforge.org/gems/cucumber-0.4.4.gem)

Anything else I should try?

Emily

[Luis Lavena]

Are you behind a HTTP proxy?

Can you check your browser settings?

If that is the case please use the --http-proxy option during gem installation.

Unzipped? Try running 'jruby -S gem install cucumber' in the directory
where you downloaded the gem.

Hi,

I don't have a proxy set in my browser, so I don't think that is the problem.

The file I dowloaded was a zip file, not a gem. jruby didn't seem to
take any notice of it, anyway. I get the same error message, whether
it is unzipped in the current working directory or not. I saw an error
message about openSSL as well, so I installed that, seemingly
successfully. See transcript below:

$ jruby -S gem install cucumber

JRuby limited openssl loaded. gem install jruby-openssl for full support.

Is there some way I can download the cucumber gem and install it locally?

Emily

[George Dinwiddie]

Emily,

You can get 0.4.4 at
http://gems.rubyforge.vm.bytemark.co.uk/gems/cucumber-0.4.4.gem

Since Aslak moved to Gemcutter, there doesn't seem to be a way to
download the gems. This will be a significant issue for people trapped
behind corporate firewalls. I'm copying the gemcutter list in hopes of
starting a discussion about what the solution could be.

Until then, I'd guess you'll have to run rake on the contents of the zip
file and build your own gem.

Hi George,

Sorry if I am missing something, but can we not just add gemcutter as source?

Yes, all ruby developers should do that

gem install gemcutter && gem tumble

Aslak, and the entire Ruby community. Rubyforge is no longer the
"official" gem host.

The question is from where did you downloaded the file?
Did you updated your JRuby installation to something newer like 1.4.0?

There is no zip file offered at RubyForge:
http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=797&release_id=41830

Could you provide the output of gem install with debug options?

jruby -S gem install cucumber --debug -V

And please do it from outside cygwin.

The above provided link to RubyForge, but will fail since you don't
have any of the dependencies installed.

[George Dinwiddie]

Aidy,

My experience is that the gem protocol does not work through many
corporate firewalls. I don't know exactly why that is. The workaround
I've used in the past is to download the gem via http and install it
locally.

There is a --http-proxy flag you can pass to rubygems. See gem help install

What has also worked for me with other tools is this:

export http_proxy=http://evil.enterprise.proxy:8090
(SET instead of export on Windows)

(not sure if rubygems picks that up though)

If this still doesn't work, please move the discussion over to the
rubygems mailing list. I don't see how this is Cucumber-specific.

gem tumble is no needed anymore:

http://groups.google.com/group/gemcutter/browse_thread/thread/b803cb3d1277515a

gems.rubyforge.org is now Gemcutter, newer 1.3.x versions of RubyGems
should work out of the box with the new scenario.

People running old versions of RubyGems should perform an upgrade to
1.3.x line. Either using the distribution package manager (Ubuntu,
debian, etc), the bundled version (JRuby) or manually.

[Emily Bache]

Hi,

I think this is a cucumber problem not a general gem problem, since I
can sucessfullly install other gems. I am also not convinced it is my
corporate firewall that is at fault. I do not need a proxy to access
the internet, for example.

I used DOS and set the --debug flag as Luis suggested, and noticed the
first error message was that I didn't have test-unit installed, so I
installed that separately. When I then re-ran the cucumber install,
the first error message about test-unit vanished, but the rest was the
same.

Does the output below help at all in diagnosing the problem?

This looks like it might be a rubygems problem. I can't recall from
the rest of the thread - have you updated rubygems?

jruby -S gem update --system

Well, here is the situation:

I've tested 1.4.0 version of JRuby, from Windows, without having any
gem installed, and gem installation of cucumber worked.

--debug will expose all the internal and captured errors, the ones
that matters are the ones at the end of the list:

Why did you upgrade to 1.4.0RC1 when 1.4.0 has been released for quite
some time?

Can you include information of your PATH?
(echo %PATH%)

And also what information "jruby -S gem env" reports?

Gemcutter uses amazon's s3 as storage. Webwasher treats this as a
blocked source by default. This means that a lot of people behind
corporate nanny-walls cannot install or update gems unless the
download through an non-blocked channel. Webwasher also blocks most
of the public and pay-for-service proxies so that route is generally
closed as well.
