From: Greg Chambers Date: 2010-02-05T17:38:15+09:00 Subject: Re: Problems with RubyGems on a Debian machine Just some additional information I found after searching the gem directory. So if I try 'gem install rails' the first time, it stops at the normal rack dependency error. When I check the gems installed, it installed activerecord, activesupport, rack, and rake. When I try 'gem install rails' again, I get the same error message, but this time I see that actionpack is also installed. However, repeating 'gem install rails' past this will not install any additional gems. The exact error message is: ERROR: Error installing rails: actionpack requires rack (~> 1.0.0, runtime) Again, not sure if this is a Rails specific issue I should just move the to Ruby on Rails forum/mailing list but since this seems to be an error with RubyGems and not Rails, I thought it would be appropriate to post here. Again, any help would be very much appreciated. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
