I'm having a similar problem with the 0.8.0 RC1 version. I've set up prior versions of Redmine on other servers, but am setting a new installation up from scratch (on a Linux box). If you get anywhere let me know and I'll do likewise.

Hey Guys,

I was able to resolve the issue and I wish I took better notes (or notes at all, using my bash history) so I'll have to go off memory. And even though I spent countless hours trying - it's worth it.

First, I wasn't able to use the latest stable release on .7. I ended up checking out the latest stable of .8 and ran rake with a happy install.

svn co http://redmine.rubyforge.org/svn/branches/0.8-stable/ .

Originally I had commented out the rails version requirement in the enviroment.rb , but I uncommented it when I started this process.

Essentially I uninstalled the re-installed (removed and installed) ruby and all gems. I'm on a (mt) DV so it was good to install yum and break from the existing knowledge base FAQ about installing rails and a test app.

I used:
$yum remove ruby
$yum update ruby
$gem remove rails [got some error, which made me run]
$gem clean rails
$gem install rails -v=2.1.2
$gem install actionview
$rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="production" --trace
[not sure why I ran] $gem update [then] $gem update --system [before I was able to run]
$rake redmine:load_default_data RAILS_ENV="production"
[could explain why my rails version was update after the specific version I previously installed]

Here is my latest config.. Mileage may vary.

[root@scatter3d httpdocs]# ruby -v
*ruby 1.8.6* (2007-09-24 patchlevel 111) [i686-linux]
[root@scatter3d httpdocs]# rails -v

Really hope that helps. I wish I knew what I was doing exactly, I was pretty burnt at the end of this cycle and I tried a lot of things. All in all, it's a matter of certain version requirements on ruby and rails and redmine.

Good Luck.
