Redmine

What version of rubygems do you have installed?

I am facing the same issue. Ruby: 1.87, Gems: 1.7.2, Redmine: 1.1.2

One thing I did that may have been wrong was doing a 'gem install rails' with no version specification. I went back and did 'gem install rails -v=2.3.5' and 'gem install rack -v=1.0.1'

You need rails 2.3.5 (except maybe on trunk) and rack 1.0.1 for sure, and I think rails 2.3.5 worked with rubygems only up to a certain version. There should be a fix in there for rubygems up to 1.6, not sure it works on 1.7. Try downgrading your rubygems to 1.6 latest or even 1.3.2 if that doesn't work.

"RubyGems 1.3.1 or higher is required (Rails 2.3.5 will fail with RubyGems 1.5.0 and later, stick to previous versions of RubyGems)"

Oops. I am very new to this Ruby stuff. Trying to uninstall? gems 1.7.2 now.

As I said, there is a fix in Redmine to work with rubygems 1.5 and 1.6 I believe. And you don't want to uninstall but downgrade it, try googling for "rubygems downgrade" or something.

Now I am getting the following:

C:\redmine>

I'd almost suspect a problem with your install (not Redmine, but the underlying ruby/rubygems stack), but I honestly have no idea, sorry :-/

I would like to have a chat with the person who decided to put the "Alternative to manual installation" at the bottom of the manual installation instructions...

BitNami installer... DONE.

Thanks for you help.

Thanks, Michael, for pointing that out. Downloaded Bitnami installer and giving it a go...
