JRuby Rails3 Trinidad/Jetty_Rails fails on simplest install - feeling as dim as a 2watt bulb

luislavena · February 9, 2011, 6:39am

Ok. This is a tad long, but may be useful for other people trying to do
the same thing.

It’s also on
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4941151/jruby-rails3-trinidad-jetty-rails-fails-on-simplest-install-feeling-as-dim-as-a

Ok. Been getting quite frustrated trying to get JRuby/Rails3 running
with jetty and tomcat.
Trying to get a local install of jruby/rails3 and jetty/tomcat app
running on OS-X.
(And eventually to an Ubuntu stage and live server)
The error I always get on startup is

Could not find activerecord-jdbc-adapter-1.1.1 in any of the sources
Try running `bundle install`.

I’ve tried googling myself to distraction trying to find out why this
happens. One source mentioned an issue with ‘bundler’ but didn’t give
any version information. Most others gave varying options to change the
Gemfile which I have tried exhaustively for the last 5 hours with no
luck.

In exasperation I decided to start from scratch with a plain install.

Installed jruby in /opt/jruby-1.6.0.RC1/ with symlink for /opt/jruby.
Gems installed:

jruby -S gem list

As you can see I have installed quite a few gems to get this working.
Sigh… Might be the ActiveRecord-JDBC?

Anyway, go to dev folder:

cd ~/dev_folder
jruby -S rails new test_app --database mysql --template

…the normal create/apply/gsub output…
cd test_app
bundle install
…normal bundle output…
Using activerecord (3.0.3)
Using activerecord-jdbc-adapter (1.1.1)
Using activeresource (3.0.3)
Using bundler (1.0.10)
Using jdbc-mysql (5.1.13)
…rest of bundle output…

Now start trinidad for example:

jruby -S trinidad

I’m going to re-install jruby in a new folder and install the absolute
minimum gems and try the same thing again.

In the meantime, if anyone has a clue as to why this would be happening
please post, as I’m sure I’m not alone on this one…

Ah. Hmm. Ok. Here’s a transcript for a complete “from-bare-metal”

I archived my previous jruby install and re-unpacked it from the

The fix is to edit
/opt/jruby-1.6.0.RC1/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/jetty-rails-0.8.1/lib/jetty_rails.rb:

vi

/opt/jruby-1.6.0.RC1/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/jetty-rails-0.8.1/lib/jetty_rails.rb

Change this:

require "java"
require "rubygems"
require "activesupport"
require "jetty_rails/jars"

To this:

require "java"
require "rubygems"
#require "activesupport"
require "active_support"
require "active_support/all"
require "jetty_rails/jars"

This should use a rails version if/else but this is a quick fix.

Rats. So close…
All I have to do is solve the rack problem.

A couple quick thoughts:

Rails 3.0.4 just came out and I haven’t had a chance to try it. It’s
possible there’s just a bug here introduced by the new version that we
haven’t caught and fixed yet.
The first part where you bundle-installed, by chance are you using
RVM or otherwise used a different ruby than JRuby to do the bundle?
Did you try ‘jruby -S bundle install’?

Sorry for the delay in response.
I’m on the Gold Coast Australia, so I’m ~10-12 hrs out from most of the
northern hemisphere
Anyway, yeah I noticed that between me re-unpacking 1.6.0RC1 and
re-gem-installing I got rails 3.0.4 instead of 3.0.3.
In any case, I redid the unpacking using -v 3.0.3 and got the same
result to verify it wasn’t that.
I also did both ‘bundle install’ and ‘jruby -S bundle install’ with the
same result.
And ‘nope’ I’m not using rvm.
I’m suspecting the use of gem install ActiveRecord-JDBC instead of the
individual activerecord-jdbc-adapter/mysql-apapter is the cause.
In any case the ‘Part II’ of the process where I installed just the
plain adapters allowed me to get further down the path.

Just FYI, I apologise for the length of the post.
I come from 34 yrs of IT, starting in '77 with RSTS/E and RPG-II, so I
tend to document in detail what I did and why.
I find it makes it easier going for people to read and understand the
process.
Since this is also on StackOverflow, it will also make it easier for
lost souls to find a process-flow that works.

The premise behind the whole process is that I have been tasked to
create a tech stack that:

a) uses jruby on OS-X for the developers,
b) allows developers to use WEBrick, Tomcat or Jetty locally for
development and testing,
c) uses capistrano for deployment to ‘dev/stage’ Ubuntu servers using
Jetty for testers to test the sites,
d) uses capistrano for deployment to ‘live’ Ubuntu servers using
NGinx/Jetty and
e) document the entire thing in excruciating detail.

The only fly in the ointment I have not solved and configured is getting
jetty_rails to work for the developers.
That’s not fantastically important, but I like to be thorough and in any
case it’s in the requirement, and I’m here to do what I’m told, not what
I want
Might have something to do with config.ru - I’ll check.
And to make matters more interesting, I see that 1.6.0RC2 is out - kool.
I’ll do the entire process again (I do like the scientific method) using
the new version and report back (er… with less detail

Kimbo.

If Jetty is a requirement you should give a try to Kirk, it’s more up to
date than jetty-rails:

Thanks heaps for that.
It looks like exactly what I was hoping for.
I’ll configure up a 1.6.0RC2 setup, try it out and report back.

Jeez I really must set up a blog or some-such new-fangled thang so I can
put all this in one place so others don’t have to go through this
trauma…
It would be really nice to have an
“all-in-the-box-real-life-usage-recipes-with-ginzu-knives” place to go.
Sigh, 70-80 hr work weeks don’t leave much room for all the projects I
have planned.
Still, I’m 55 now and with adequate biotech I might reach 110, so I
still have a few years in me to get everything done…
Whoops - waffling again - my husband says I don’t have an ‘off’ switch
