Missing the Rails 2.3.4 gem. Even though it's installed!

Running Snow Leopard. Tried uninstalling, and re-installing. Still getting the same error whenever I run a rake task.

mbpro:redmine shereef$ ruby -v
ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel 174) [i686-darwin10.0.0]

mbpro:redmine shereef$ rails -v
Rails 2.3.4

mbpro:redmine shereef$ which rails
/usr/local/bin/rails

mbpro:redmine shereef$ gem -v
1.3.5

mbpro:redmine shereef$ which gem
/usr/local/bin/gem

mbpro:redmine shereef$ rake -v
(in /Users/shereef/Documents/Code/BetterMeans/redmine)
Missing the Rails 2.3.4 gem. Please gem install -v=2.3.4 rails, update your RAILS_GEM_VERSION setting in config/environment.rb for the Rails version you do have installed, or comment out RAILS_GEM_VERSION to use the latest version installed.

mbpro:redmine shereef$ which rake
/usr/bin/rake

mbpro:redmine shereef$ $PATH
-bash: /usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/git/bin:/usr/X11/bin: No such file or directory

The solution that worked for me was to remove ruby 1.8.7, reinstall it and use gemsets. This is the code if you're using rvm and ruby is correctly on it.

rvm remove 1.8.7 
rvm package install readline # I'm not sure this is needed...
rvm install 1.8.7 --with-readline-dir=$rvm_path/usr # same here for option
rvm gemset create mine
rvm 1.8.7@mine
rvm use 1.8.7@mine --default # IF you do not want to change rv each terminal
gem install rails -v=2.3.5

I'm not sure but I think that rails was not seen because of the global gemset, but rails is pretty new to me to go deep in the explanation.

Edit: In the case that there is no need to reinstall ruby, this should be enough, in both cases you'll have to reinstall all your gems.

rvm gemset create mine
rvm 1.8.7@mine
rvm use 1.8.7@mine --default # IF you do not want to change rv each terminal
gem install rails -v=2.3.5

let me know...

Whenever I installed a newer version of rack this would happen. Making sure I had v 1.0.1 made it always work.

I had similar problems, and another gem to keep an eye on is activesupport. I found if I had other versions that differed from my Rails version, it could cause this as well.

On Fedora 12 you need to

$ gem install -v=1.0.1 rack

for the bundled rails to work.

I too had faced a similar issue. Please verify whether rails 2.3.4 is installed properly using the "gem list" command. If more than one copy of rails are present in gem list, remove the unwanted version using "gem uninstall rails" and select the required version.

Since you have your own copy of ruby in /usr/local, I suspect that somehow rake is still trying to use the builtin os x ruby/gem command.

Try running 'gem env' to make sure your environment is set up correctly. In particular, look at the GEM PATHS: to make sure they are pointed at your /usr/local directory. If they are wrong try setting GEM_HOME and/or GEM_PATH in your environment.

Here is what my output looks like (though I use a ruby install dir in my own how directory via the ruby_switcher.sh tool (http://github.com/relevance/etc)

Have you tried running rake:rails:update in your application?
