hello you all,
it's me again! yeah 
unfortunately on the machine where ruby's running i don't have internet
access 
i have [ruby 1.8.2 (2005-04-11)] [i386-linux]
my ruby is finally running under apache and everything's doing well,
but i'd like to put this rails thing too.
i downloaded rubygems-0.8.10.tgz and rubygems-update-0.8.10.gem and
installed them. no error messages everything's OK.
after i downloaded rails-0.12.1.gem, gem install rails-0.12.1.gem no
error messages everything looks OK.
and then i try to create a rail thing: rails /www/rubi/rails/test
errors:
/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:194: in `report_active_error`:
Could not find RubyGem rake (>=0.5.3) (Gem::LoadError)
聽聽from /usr/local/libe/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:136:in `activate`
my question is that: does anybody has a full package to install, or do
i have to deal with all the "could-not-find" errors until i find them
all?
thank you

Hi zM,
On the machine that you have where you can download gems you want to make sure you include dependencies...
gem install rails --include-dependencies
This will download alot of other gems like:
- rake
- actionmailer
- actionpack
- actionwebservice
- activerecord
- activesupport
- rails
This will most likely put everything in:
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/
Copy all of the files in there over to your non-internet based computer and you should be ok.

hello zdennis,
this is the situation:
i have a win xp computer wich is connected to the internet through
modem. i don't have any kind of developing tool on it.
and i have a laptop with debian 3.1. the problem is that i use walmart
connect and they don't support linux so i cannot go online with my
laptop 
do you think i can install ruby on my windows (and the gems) and after
put everything to my linux?
thank U
zM

Take a look at penggy: Best Open Source Mac Software Development Software 2024
According to what I've read, it allows you to connect to AOL and Compuserve
using Linux, and Walmart Connect is said to be just a rebranded Compuserve.
There is a Debian package for it so you may be able to grab it from
http://packages.debian.org and put it on a CD (or maybe it's already on your
Debian CDs or DVDs if you have them all, but in that case you would have Ruby
on them too, although it would only be 1.8.2).
do you think i can install ruby on my windows (and the gems) and after
put everything to my linux?
That's quite simple: no. While the pure Ruby parts will probably work unchanged
from Windows to Linux, the binaries (among which Ruby itself!) won't. Binaries
are OS specific and thus can't simply be copied from one OS to another. Maybe
they would work with WINE, but since Ruby exists natively for Linux, that's
kind of a waste.
If you want to install Ruby to Debian you need to use the debs. You can always
grab them from http://packages.debian.org, but you'll have to take care of all
the dependencies yourself (you can't use apt or synaptic with separate debs).
Or check whether it isn't already on your Debian CDs. But I would really try
the penggy solution if I were you. Debian is a great OS, but it really shows
its greatness only once it's connected to Internet (don't you have a friend
with a more "normal" kind of Internet connection? Since your Debian computer is
a laptop, you could ask to use his connection, at least for the installation of
penggy. If his connection allows DHCP you can easily connect Debian).

hello zdennis again,

Congratulations, you've put Ruby on Rails
:)))
