Errors while installing lovdbyless on Windows XP

[Henry Wagner]

Hi,

I'm in the process of installing lovdbyless on Windows XP with MRI Ruby 1.8.6 and Rails 2.0.2. I've been running through the README included with the zip, installed all the gems, created and configed a MySQL db. While running rake db:create:all I first got

---
rake aborted!
no such file to load -- tzinfo
---

gem install tzinfo fixed that :)

Now I'm stuck with

>rake db:create:all --trace
(in C:/Documents and Settings/hwagner/RailsApps/lovdbyless)
** Invoke db:create:all (first_time)
** Invoke environment (first_time)

Any ideas?

First, this looks like a great project - many thanks!

I'm having issues on XP, too. I made it through installing the various
additional gems (as far as I know), but when I start mongrel I run
into cascading errors, starting with:

C:/dev/3rdRail/workspace/lovdbyless/script/server: No such file or
directory - uname
<many lines omitted>
(I'm not sure if that's a real problem, as execution continues.)

This seems more serious:
Textmate Footnotes Exception: undefined method
`pick_template_extension' for #<ActionView::Base:0x4237d38>
<many lines omitted>

And finally I get this:
/!\ FAILSAFE /!\ Wed Mar 19 22:17:43 -0500 2008
Status: 500 Internal Server Error
propfind, accepted HTTP methods are delete, head, get, options,

C:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.0.2.9053/lib/
action_controller/request.rb:26:in `request_method'
<many lines omitted>

Is lovdbyless known to work on WIndows XP? Any ideas about the errors?

Thanks,

Jack

In another thread, Greg provided the missing piece of the puzzle wrt
the errors I was getting - installing the redgreen gem eliminated
them.

Thanks,

Jack

[Cyberworlds]

After resolving the previously mentioned errors, I found that browsing
to http://localhost/ took me to the usual default rails start page. I
added the following line to routes.rb as a naive change, and it seems
to have fixed it:
map.default '', :controller => 'home', :action => 'index'

I'm a rails newbie, so if there's a better solution or I've just
missed something, please let me know.

I'm really looking forward to playing with this!

Thanks,

Jack

[Cyberworlds]

Whoops, spoke too soon - after I added a blog post, I discovered
a) that I needed to install the RedCloth gem, and
b) that the original textmate footnote errors had returned.
The app seems to be working, though, so I guess I'll wait to hear from
others more knowledgeable than I on the textmate footnote issue.

Thanks,

Jack

I'm having issues on XP, too. I was able to install all the gems
except for "ferret".

Getting the following errors

D:\Satish\Apps\RubyOnRails\lovdbyless>gem install ferret
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing ferret:

I see that people were able to install sucessfully on windows. Any
idea on this error.

Satish -

There doesn't seem to be a Windows binary version of ferret-0.11.6,
but you can install the previous version:
gem install ferret --version 0.11.5
if I recall correctly.

[Henry Wagner]

I was able to install Ferret on XP by downloading ferret-0.11.6-mswin32.gem from http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=1028

 

Then run gem install ferret-0.11.6-mswin32.gem

[Steven A Bristol]

Would someone (maybe Jack or Henry) write up a little blurb on this to add to the README?

thanks,

steve

[Henry Wagner]

How's this:

 

Installing ferret on Windows

1. Running gem install ferret does not work. Instead, download the gem directly from http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=1028
2. Download file: ferret-0.11.6-mswin32.gem
3. From the directory you downloaded the gem to: gem install ferret-0.11.6-mswin32.gem

Perhaps someone can ping the ferret gem maintainer to release a
mswin32 version? We must loveth our windoze neighbours :)

I've started a rake task to encapsulate the installation of gems in a
git branch: http://github.com/drnic/lovd-by-less/tree/getting_started/lib/tasks/getting_started.rake

Currently I haven't included "if windoze then don't try to install
ferret etc", rather I think windows/ferreters need their own gem.

But, if there are any other dependent gems (that i already had so I
didn't know they were dependencies) can you reply and I'll add them to
this rake task (or Steve can)

Thanks, Henry - last time I looked there wasn't a Win32 0.11.6; I
should have checked again before recommending installing the old
version.

我可以在xp上跑起来了：）

根据错误提示一步一步的安装欠缺的gems，列表如下：

colored 1.1
ferret 0.11.5
flickr 1.0.2
mime-types 1.15
mocha 0.5.6
redgreen 1.2.2
rmagick 2.0.0
tzinfo 0.3.7
uuidtools 1.0.3
win32console 1.1.0
youtube-g 0.4.1
-----------------------------------
I'm running lovdbyless on Windows XP with MRI Ruby
1.8.6 and Rails 2.0.2 and gems installing above.

pl don't forget to create the Mysql database "lovdbyless_development"
at the first time.

yeah,"We must loveth our windoze neighbours :) ",and just be patient
and ejoy it.

Have fun:)

[Cyberworlds]

Henry -

Does your installation of ferret show the correct version (0.11.6)?
I've downloaded & done a local install, but mine insists it's 0.11.5 -
wondering if I've somehow done something wrong or if the gem reports
the wrong version (or the wrong version is posted)...

Thanks,

Jack

[Henry Wagner]

Jack,

 

I'm seeing 0.11.5 locally too. Weird, the downloaded file said 0.11.6.

 

Henry

[Aditya]

Apparently according to the author of ferret, it doesnt matter if you
have 0.11.5 or 0.11.6 on windows. They suggest that you can happily
stay on 0.11.5 until a "mswin32" gem is released.

Does it help? Ferret is working fine for me on 0.11.5

Cheers,
Aditya
