Does trunk work on Rails 2.0.2?

Added by Arthaey Angosii over 16 years ago

The FAQ says that "Redmine devel r1623 and above is compatible with Rails 2.1, but Redmine 0.7.x releases are not."

Is trunk supposed to also be backwards compatible with Rails 2.0.2? I tried updating my Redmine checkout to the latest on trunk, but I started getting errors. Downgrading to pre-r1623 fixed the errors, so that made me wonder whether trunk is supposed to work on Rails 2.0.2 in the first place.

Here's the output of script/about:

I'm running on Dreamhost with Phusion Passenger.

As of r1623, Rails 2.1 is required (see Line 8 of config/environment.rb). From what I understand, trunk is for version 0.8 which is allowed to require the latest Rails framework and break backwards compatibility.

Thanks for the response. It's too bad about the breaking of backwards compatibility... I'll have to see if Dreamhost can be convinced to upgrade.

You should be able to copy Rails 2.1 to your vendor/rails directory by running "rake rails:freeze:gems" on a system where Rails 2.1 is installed.
