Good thing I saved the bin directory! After uninstalling, the whole c:\ruby directory was gone. After reinstalling, I hand copied the missing files from my back up of c:\ruby\bin to the newly created one, and just replaces the whole C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8 with the backup. Everything seems to be working fine! Thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
