This works fine from my linux box, but no such luck from windows:

C:\code\dwemthys>
C:\code\dwemthys>gem install ActiveRecord
Successfully installed activerecord-2.0.2
Installing ri documentation for activerecord-2.0.2…

C:\code\dwemthys>ruby db_crud_create.rb
db_crud_create.rb:2:in `require’: no such file to load –
active_record (LoadErr
or)
from db_crud_create.rb:2

C:\code\dwemthys>
C:\code\dwemthys>ver

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

C:\code\dwemthys>

Could I do something from the console to figure out what’s going on?

thanks,

A more complete example:

C:\code\dwemthys>
C:\code\dwemthys>
C:\code\dwemthys>gem search activerecord

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

C:\code\dwemthys>

require ‘active_record’
require ‘fileutils’
require ‘creature’
require ‘dragon’
require ‘instantiate’
include Instantiate

system(“rm dwemthys.db”)

ActiveRecord::Base.logger = Logger.new(STDERR)
ActiveRecord::Base.colorize_logging = true

ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
:adapter => “sqlite3”,
:dbfile => “dwemthys.db”
)

ActiveRecord::Schema.define do
create_table :creatures do |table|
table.column :type, :string
table.column :life, :integer
table.column :strength, :integer
table.column :charisma, :integer
table.column :weapon, :integer
end
end

99.times do |index|
creature = Instantiate.randomCreature
p creature
creature.save
end

try again – I seem to spend half my energy battling the OS.
