Redmine

This is the complete error.

** Daemonized, any open files are closed.  Look at log/mongrel.pid and log/mongrel.log for info.
** Starting Mongrel listening at 0.0.0.0:12006

Missing the i18n 0.4.2 gem. Please `gem install -v=0.4.2 i18n`

I'm having the same problem, with the 1.1.2 version.

Make sure i18n is installed in the gems set actually used by your Redmine instance.

Sorry, but how or where can I confirm it?

Warning, I am a NOOB, but thought this might help someone...can't hurt right?

I had similar issue upgrading Redmine on HostGator. Even though I only had i18n 0.4.2 installed, it wouldn't load with the 1.1.2 boot.rb patch in place. As a last resort, I hacked rails to load the newer i18n gem.

To do this, I did the following:

1. Remove the well commented patch from the bottom of redmine-1.1.2/config/boot.rb
2. Delete the folder Redmine-1.1.2\vendor\rails\activesupport\lib\active_support\vendor\i18n-0.1.3
3. Copy the i18n-0.4.2 from my gems path to Redmine-1.1.2\vendor\rails\activesupport\lib\active_support\vendor\i18n-0.4.2
4. Change the i18n loading section in file: /rails_apps/redmine1.1.2/vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/vendor.rb
to read:

begin
  gem 'i18n', '>= 0.3.0'
rescue Gem::LoadError
  $:.unshift "#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/vendor/i18n-0.4.2/lib" 
end
require 'i18n'

Like I said, it was a hack that work for me after hours of trying unsuccessfully to get i18n v0.4.2 to be the only game in town. Hopefully it will help someone else who, like me, didn't notice the issue until the site was in production, and needed a quick fix.

PS: I'd like to know the answer to note #10 too please.

Removing the rescue code you can see the real problem:

*** Exception Gem::LoadError in PhusionPassenger::Railz::FrameworkSpawner (can't activate i18n (= 0.4.2, runtime) for [], already activated i18n-0.5.0 for [])

seems i18n 0.5.0 is loaded before 0.4.2, but what can be loading it? passenger?

I am running Redmine under apache + passenger and this not happens on mongrel (script/server)

+1!

I'm having exactly the same problem. Trying to install Redmine 1.1.3 on Redhat.

as a workaround we changed this on config/boot.rb:

-  gem 'i18n', '0.4.2'
+  gem 'i18n'#, '0.4.2'

whith this I guess Redmine is using latest i18n gem (0.5.0), but it's working without trouble

may be related with this bundler issue ?

How do we check this please?

This worked for me, found it through google-fu

sudo chmod -R a+rX /usr/lib/ruby
