Subject: Could not find RubyGem - because it's not a gem

Hi all,

Sorry, a bit of a cross-post here, because I'm not sure if this is a
Rails issue or a gems issue. The problem is that I've got sys-admin
installed, just not as a gem, and that's causing a problem.

First, some config info:

RubyGems Environment:
  - RUBYGEMS VERSION: 1.3.0
  - RUBY VERSION: 1.8.6 (2008-03-03 patchlevel 114) [i386-mswin32_80]
  - INSTALLATION DIRECTORY: C:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8
  - RUBY EXECUTABLE: C:/ruby/bin/ruby.exe
  - EXECUTABLE DIRECTORY: C:/ruby/bin
  - RUBYGEMS PLATFORMS:
    - ruby
    - x86-mswin32-80
  - GEM PATHS:
     - C:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8
     - C:/Documents and Settings/djberge/.gem/ruby/1.8
  - GEM CONFIGURATION:
     - :update_sources => true
     - :verbose => true
     - :benchmark => false
     - :backtrace => false
     - :bulk_threshold => 1000
  - REMOTE SOURCES:
     - http://gems.rubyforge.org/

irb(main):001:0> require 'sys/admin'
=> true

However, if I try to fire up Rails I get this:

C:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:628:in
`report_activate_error': Could not find RubyGem sys-admin (>= 0)

         ... 12 levels...

27:in `gem_original_require'
        from C:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:
27:in `require'
        from script/server:3

What's happening here? Problem with my setup or environment? Or a
problem with Rails?

Thanks,

Dan
