Gems rdoc failure with Rails

ruby-talk
1

Ruby 1.8.2, gem 0.8.1 with update, on Win xp

I installed rails, did gem_server, and tried to browse rails documentation.
Links after the 1st page are broken. A bug or operator error?

e.g

Not Found
`/doc_root/activerecord-1.0.0/rdoc/classes/ActiveRecord/Base.html' not
found.

Hi. I haven't seen this one. Can you run "gem environment" and then look in

#{gempath}\doc\rails-0.8.0

to see what's missing?

  - GEM PATH: - c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8

The broken link is not from the rails subdir, but the ActiveRecord subdir.
Looking there, the path is fine until
    activerecord-1.0.0/rdoc/classes

but there is no ActiveRecord directory below that, and no file Base.html
anywhere under activerecord-1.0.0.

I did not get any errors with the gem install. I repeated the install twice
to see if anything would get the rdoc links fixed.

On the last uninstall + reinstall of rails, I got a gem warning message:

   WARNING: Generating RDoc on .gem that may not have RDoc.

This warning isn't anything to worry about (in fact, we're going to
take it out of the next version). I'm still perplexed as to why the
RDoc for ActiveRecord didn't get generated. Can you try going into
your ActiveRecord directory and running RDoc manually to see if it
turns up any errors?

Thanks,
