update:

I upgraded to hieraki-2.0.1.

now it seems that there is a header problem:

check the interpreter decleration on the first line, if you were
developing on windows it may be set to #!c:\ruby\bin\rails or likewise

its should be something like
#!/usr/local/bin/ruby

check where it is on yor system by running
$> whereis ruby

from a command line
