RForum Edge Rails Installation problems

Community Ruby-Forum
1

Hi,

I’m trying to install RForum on my Mac running OS X Tiger.

On this Mac I have PostgreSQL 8.1
and
Edge Rails 4724

I used svn to get rforum 925

Then, I edited database.yml and created a corresponding database.

Then, I created site.rb from default_site.rb

Then, I tried…

rake db:migrate

I saw this:

/myrforum 11 $
/myrforum 11 $
/myrforum 11 $
/myrforum 11 $
/myrforum 11 $ rake db:migrate
(in /pt/webprops/vietenglish/rforum925)
rake aborted!
no such file to load – ferret
/pt/webprops/vietenglish/rforum925/rakefile.rb:9
(See full trace by running task with --trace)
/myrforum 12 $
/myrforum 12 $
/myrforum 12 $

I did this:

gem install ferret

I saw:

…
Successfully installed ferret-0.9.5
Installing RDoc documentation for ferret-0.9.5…
/myrforum 13 $

which looks good to me.

Then, I tried…

rake db:migrate

I saw this:

/myrforum 13 $
/myrforum 13 $ rake db:migrate
(in /pt/webprops/vietenglish/rforum925)
rake aborted!
Regexp anchor characters are not allowed in routing requirements:
/^[0-9]+$/
/pt/webprops/vietenglish/rforum925/rakefile.rb:9
(See full trace by running task with --trace)
/myrforum 14 $
/myrforum 14 $
/myrforum 14 $

Do any of you have any tips on how I can get RForum installed?

Thanks,

-Dan

ok,

What was that svn command?

ah… here:
svn co svn://andreas-s.net/rforum/trunk/

and I see:

A trunk/public/stylesheets/main.css
A trunk/public/stylesheets/syntax.css
A trunk/public/favicon.ico
U trunk
Checked out revision 932.

mv trunk rforum932
/bin/rm -f rforum
ln -s rforum932 rforum

edit database.yml
create site.rb from default_site.rb

follow README:
rake db:migrate
script/server webrick

http://localhost:3000/user/register

create user named fred

dig the password out of development.log

script/make_admin fred

Use
http://localhost:3000/forum/new

to start making forums

I’m happy

Notice that I had removed edge rails
[ with /bin/rm -rf vendor/rails ]

It was causing problems with my install of
a plugin called ‘comatose’ which I got here:

Andreas…
Thanks for your help!
