Redmine

I've updated my code base again today and the error has changed a little. When I run rake I get:

"undefined method `name' for "abstract":String" (see new trace below)

I've checked my rails set up as best I know how. I've even tested out a couple of other simple rails apps and they seem to run ok. So...I'm still stumped on this issue.

I got the same problem. could be problems with RAILS? rack?

I had the same error message with gem 1.8.2 and rails 2.3.11,
but it works again when I switched back to gem 1.6.2...

I ended up reverting back to redmine 1.1.3 on a new server so I can't confirm your theory but I think that is the right answer.

When I have some extra time I will try out the master branch to make sure.

Thanks for the comments!

Related RubyGems bug tracker entry is here.

And Rails tracker entry

Also got bit by this while upgrading Redmine to 1.2.0.

That bug hasn't been fixed for over a month now. Now, I can't even go back to 1.1.3.

With the following gems it works:
Rails (2.3.11)
i18n (0.4.2)
rack (1.1.1)
rake (0.9.2)
rubygems-update (1.6.0)

This is not a bug, latest stable doesn't work with RubyGems > 1.6 because Rails 2.3.11 doesn't work with RubyGems > 1.6 as stated in requirements :

Rails 2.3.11 will fail with RubyGems 1.7.0 or later, stick to previous versions of RubyGems !

Cut, i can paste the full one if needed. So, what should I do to install redmine?

p.s. sorry, failed to format code as needed

Me problem solved

Maxin Samuel how did you fix it ? I'm having the same problem on centos linux

I hope you past the mothod. Thanks.

My gem list is the same ,but has the problem.

And 1.1.3 has same problem. I don't know why.

Resolved you say?

What is the resolution then? Depending on 'mysql-devel' or what? Sorry but this comes close to bullshit!

I'm having trouble right now to reproduce the original error message (which occurred after done something like gem update --system && gem update a couple of days ago - the problem got apparent after restarting redmine today ..).

Reproducible is that gem update --system renders my Redmine installation unusable in a sense that I can't restart: I'm facing messages that gems rubytree and coderay are missing while they are just in front of me in vendors/gems. I solved this problem by going back to RubyGems 1.6.2:

$ sudo gem update --system 1.6.2
$ gem -v
1.6.2

$ gem list | grep -P '^(rails|i18n|rack|rake|rubygems-update) '
i18n (0.6.0, 0.5.0, 0.4.2)
rack (1.1.1)
rails (3.0.9, 2.3.11)
rake (0.9.2, 0.8.7)
rubygems-update (1.8.5, 1.6.2)

I must say that I'm not at all impressed by this Gem hell and I'm neither impressed by this relentless waves of 'undefined methods' and deprecated warnings. This is my approach to somehow freeze Redmine:

$ cd /srv/redmine-1.2.0
$ rake rails:freeze:gems
rake/rdoctask is deprecated.  Use rdoc/task instead (in RDoc 2.4.2+)
WARNING: 'task :t, arg, :needs => [deps]' is deprecated.  Please use 'task :t, [args] => [deps]' instead.
    at /srv/redmine-1.2.0/lib/tasks/email.rake:170
Freezing to the gems for Rails 3.0.9

How do you resolved it?
Thanks

I'm also having this issue. Both with git dev version and latest stable release.

I resolved this by upgrading to rails 2.3.12:

- remove vendor/rails from your redmine install
- set RAILS_GEM_VERSION = '2.3.12' in config/environment.rb
- profit!

i am totally new to this , want to install redmine on ubuntu(version being installed is 1.2.1)
when i run

sudo rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="production"

i get

rake aborted!

undefined method `name' for "abstract":String

following are the versions i am using ...

i18n (0.5.0, 0.4.2)
rack (1.2.3)
rails (3.0.9)
rake (0.9.2)
gem 1.8.6

please please help to resolve this issue... it will be of great help :)

After refering to the correct versions of rails and rack supported by redmine on http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/RedmineInstall
for redmine 1.2.1, i run following

sudo gem install rails -v=2.3.11
sudo gem install rack -v=1.1.0

now
i18n (0.5.0, 0.4.2)
rack (1.2.3, 1.1.2, 1.1.0)
rails (3.0.9, 2.3.11)
rake (0.9.2)
rubygems-update (1.8.6)

but still i get the same error

Hello. I saw the same problem when trying to install trunk.
Following this issue's information, I've downgraded rubygem from 1.8.x to 1.6.2.
(Indeed, I failed to run redmine with rubygems 1.8.7)

And after that I could run redmine.

My setting is following:

$ sudo ruby script/about
About your application's environment
Ruby version 1.8.7 (x86_64-linux)
RubyGems version 1.6.2
Rack version 1.1.2
Rails version 2.3.11
Active Record version 2.3.11
Active Resource version 2.3.11
Action Mailer version 2.3.11
Active Support version 2.3.11

Just wanted to throw my two cents in here that upgrading to rails 2.3.12 and modifying the RAILS_GEM_VERSION also resolved the problem for me :)

This did not work for me. The error now is:

uninitialized constant RDoc

Rendall

Try gem install rdoc -v=3.8

I've tried editing config/environment.rb for both 2.3.12 and 2.3.11 for RAILS_GEM_VERSION with no change.

Any help/guidance very much appreciated
Rob

OK, seems I missed removing the vendor/rails directory and it was still trying that instead, sorry for the bother.

Solved if you follow RedmineInstall, that is by using RubyGems <= 1.6

I'm not a big fan of using an ancient version of RubyGems either. This can be problematic when you have multiple rails apps on the same server as Redmine. I used RVM to create a custom Ruby with RubyGems 1.6.2. You can find instructions for that here: http://beginrescueend.com/rubies/rubygems/

rvm install ree -n rg162
rvm use ree-rg162
gem --version
rvm rubygems 1.6.2
gem --version

If Redmine was tied to a previous Ruby install or gemset, you can migrate the gems automatically via:

rvm gemset copy ree-1.8.7-2011.03@redmine ree-rg162

I then created the appropriate .rvmrc file in the redmine folder and updated the gems.

If you're still having trouble, make sure you have the exact gem versions as mentioned in RedmineInstall. I can confirm it works with the following gemset (using passenger-standalone):
