I'm transitioning to heroku, and need to have AWS-s3 connections to deal with a variety of graphics. I've installed the aws-s3 gem, but one of its dependencies is not being found: xml-simple. My belief is that this is a standard part of RoR, and it is in the gem list. When I deploy to heroku, all is fine, but on my development server, i...

As title, I am talking about the alter-ego gem (http://alter-ego.rubyforge.org). I need to determine if I am going to execute my validation depending on the transition called. The best alternative I have now is add a callback to transition, but that's rather clumsy as I have to do it on every transition. ...
Hi all, I'm working on a university project and my teacher set up the server for it, but after installing Ruby 1.9.x we had to return to Ruby 1.8.x, because of the Ruby 1.9/Rails 2.3.4 problem. Now, every time I build a Rails app, it's always using Rails 2.2.3 gems. I've changed the environment.rb (RAILS_GEM_VERSION = '2.3.4' ...), bu...

I tried adding a few gems to my Rails app using the config.gem instruction in environment.rb so that when the app gets deployed on a new system, the missing gems issue can be taken care of with rake gems:install After adding the list of required gems that my app depends on, my app failed to start.
