Unnsse-
Please try one more thing before you give up. Set up a sylink =20
from /usr/bin/ruby to /usr/local/bin/ruby and then put /use/local/=20=
bin and /usr/local/sbin in your $PATH in front of /usr/bin and /=20
usr/sbin.
Here is the blog entry where the shell script I had you run =20
initiated:
http://tech.rufy.com/entry/46 . I know many people who =20=
went this route to fix Tiger's ruby setup. If this does not work =20=
for you then you can always install ruby from source. If that is =20
what you need to do then you can rename Tiger's ruby binary to =20
ruby.tiger or something and install from source. I am pasting =20
installation instructions for the whole ruby/rails/lighttpd/fcgi/=20
gems/mysql bindings stack.
I am really sorry that my instructions seemed to have messed =20
things up. I feel horrible. Please try these other suggestions =20
and let me know when you get it fixed. If you encounter more =20
problems I feel obligated and I would gladly install everything =20
for you if you create a temporary ssh account for me that you can =20=
erase when the install is done.
I hope it works for you:

Here are instructions for a source install:
These instructions work on OSX, most linux distros and FreeBSD
You can skip ruby if you already have a good copy. But if you =20
only have the
stock ruby that comes with OSX I would compile it from source and =20=
rename the
stock OSX ruby and irb to ruby.bak and irb.bak so you don't end =20
up using
them on accident.

Lighttpd Launcher Script
Here is a link for a sweet enhancement. Put this script in your =20
RAILS_ROOT/script folder and put the lighttpd.conf file in =20
RAILS_ROOT/config. Now you can launch your rails app by cd=92ing =20
into your RAILS_ROOT for your app and typing:
$ruby script/lighty -p 7500 -e development (or whatever port & =20
env you want to use)
Now you can hit
http://localhost:7500/ and you will get your app =20
running on lighttpd no muss no fuss. Very sweet for development. =20
Here is the link:
http://www.bigbold.com/snippets/posts/show/=20
303 . Name the first ruby script lighty and name the config file =20
lighttpd.conf. Now every time you start your app this way is =20
creates a new lighttpd.conf in /tmp and starts lighttpd up with =20
that file. This way you can give it command line options as to =20
what port to bind to and others. I=92m using this for development =20=
and it is sweet!

Thanks for your help, but I wish I never tried it....
Can anyone help me at all?
Many, many, thanks!

Yes I would still do this. Apple ships a broken version of ruby =20=
and this totally fixes it. I have done it on over 10 installs =20
of Tiger. It will go ahead and just write over your rubygems =20

gems you already installed. But thats a small price to pay for =20
having a ruby binary that has readline support and can properly =20=

Here is an easy way to fix the OSX default install of =20

and it will install rubygems for you. Just run this command =20
from the terminal:
$ sudo curl -O rufy.com/fix-ruby-tiger.sh; sh fix-ruby-tiger.sh
Hope that helps-

Thanks James,
I would I "un-install" the Mac OS X Ruby and install the new =20=
one (ruby 1.8.3)?
Could I use the RubyGem utility? Or do I login as root and =20
just download the tar.gz file and unzip
it and then do a configure and then make install? Would this =20=
overwrite the ruby 1.8.2 that I have?
The same questions apply to tcl/tk...

Hello again,
Hello.
I am a Ruby newbie... I am using the following version on =20
Mac OS X Tiger:
Raven:/Developer/DevResources/Ruby/Draw untz$ ruby --version
ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [powerpc-darwin8.0]
Raven:/Developer/DevResources/Ruby/Draw untz$ which ruby
/usr/bin/ruby
This is Apple's default install, it looks like. There are =20
a few issues with it, so I prefer to build my own version =20
of Ruby.
I am experiencing several problems....
1. My irb doesn't support tab completion (the same version =20=
of Ruby
on WinXP does support tab completion)...
I believe this is one of the issues with Apple's install. =20
If you build the readline library, then build your own copy =20=
of Ruby, you should be able to get this going.
2. How do I use similar functionality in irb to clear the =20
buffer, as one would
do in Unix using "clear" and WinXP, using "cls"?
Try pushing Control-L.
3. I copied a simple Draw coding sample and when I tried =20
to run it,
I got an error...
The code for Draw.rb:
[snip code]
I assume this is a TK issue, but I'll let someone who knows =20=
more than me address it...
4. What is the *BEST* free Ruby IDE in the world?
I'm a text editor fan, not an IDE guy, so I'll let someone =20
else field this question too...
