Exec format error while installing Globalize

Hello,
I have a problem installing Globalize plugin on my Windows machine. I
first posted this msg to comp.lang.ruby but got no answer, so I hope
to get help here :slight_smile:
I must admit I am a complete noob in Rails. I need to develop an
application with support for several languages so I decided to install
Globalize just after installing Rails. I created a project named
“first” and typed the following:
D:\railsspace\first>ruby script/plugin install
http://svn.globalize-rails.org/svn/globalize/branches/for-1.2

After some operation the script complained about some “Exec format
error”.
Whole output follows:
D:\railsspace\first>ruby script/plugin install
http://svn.globalize-rails.org/svn/globalize/branches/for-1.2

    Exec format error - rake -f D:/railsspace/first/vendor/plugins/
    for-1.2/…/…/…/Rakefile globalize:upgrade_schema_to_1_dot_2 && exit
    1

Looks like there is an error in my vendor/plugins/for-1.2/tasks/
data.rake file but I have little idea how to read it. The file can be
found here:
http://svn.globalize-rails.org/svn/globalize/branches/for-1.2/tasks/d…

I am running Win XP SP2 with Ruby 1.8.6 (2007-03-13 patchlevel 0)
[i386-mswin32] and Rails 1.2.3

I read the replies to similar problems, and the solution was to use
rake.cmd or rake.bat instead of plain rake command, but in the
upgrate_schema_to_1_dot_2 task I can’t even see when the rake is
invoked…

Can anyone help? I have no idea how to bite this problem…

All the best,
Maciek
