Following install instructions and I get these errors

[Huet]

Hi all,

I am new to ROR, so sorry if this error is a simple fix.

I am following the steps to setup the cms on unbuntu 9.10 using rvm
1.8.7-p249

When I try to run ./script/console I get the following error.

hbartels@nicholas-laptop:~/projects/cms-demo/script$ ./console

Has anyone got a solution for this please.

Hi Huet,

This seems to be a general problem with Ruby (and nothing specific to
Skyline). The solution I came across on the internet is to recompile
readline:

http://web.elctech.com/2009/01/09/fixing-ruby-no-such-file-to-load-readline-error-in-centos/

Hopefully this will also be the answer to your problem.

Kind regards,
Ronald

Hi Ronald,

 

Thanks for that, it turned out that I did not have readline ubuntu packages installed.

 

What I installed was the following for other developers information

 

sudo aptitude install libreadline-ruby1.8 libreadline-ruby1.9 libreadline-dev

 

Please note you will need a root enabled account to do this.

 

Thanks again
