Problem with Ruby on OS X

ruby-talk
1

Hi,

I am trying to use Ruby on OS X. I installed libnet4r using gem and then
when I try to do *require ‘libnet4r’ *in a script, I get a LoadError. I have
added the path to libnet4r to LOAD_PATH. Still it does not work. What might
be the problem?

Thanks

I used to hit that all the time cuz I'd forget one minor detail... try adding the following before your require statements:

require 'rubygems'

Thanks for the replies.
I got the same error for rubygems! The output of gem environment is

RubyGems Environment:
  - RUBYGEMS VERSION: 1.8.5
  - RUBY VERSION: 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel 174) [universal-darwin10.0]
  - INSTALLATION DIRECTORY: /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8
  - RUBY EXECUTABLE:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin/ruby
  - EXECUTABLE DIRECTORY: /usr/bin
  - RUBYGEMS PLATFORMS:
    - ruby
    - universal-darwin-10
  - GEM PATHS:
     - /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8
     - /Users/rony/.gem/ruby/1.8
  - GEM CONFIGURATION:
     - :update_sources => true
     - :verbose => true
     - :benchmark => false
     - :backtrace => false
     - :bulk_threshold => 1000
  - REMOTE SOURCES:
     - http://rubygems.org/

I added /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8 to LOAD_PATH in irb and tried the same, but
got LoadError.

Thanks

Hi,

I figured it out. Gem was using a different ruby. Once I removed the old
Ruby, it worked perfectly.

Thanks all
