Install Ruby 1.9.1 on Debian#
NOTE: This Installation works, but obviously it is still buggy.
When I tried to migrate an application I had several issues and finally an internal server error. I finally used the
basic installation
then. Use it also as template for this installation, but follow my instructions here.
1. Consider to install Paco before.
2. Install Ruby
- Look at ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/ for the latest stable version
- Download with wget like and "tar xzf"
wget ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.1-p243.tar.gz
- Install
./configure make paco -lp ruby-1-9-1 'make install'
- check status
ruby -v => ruby 1.9.1p243 (2009-07-16 revision 24175) [i686-linux]
3. Ruby 1.9.1 comes with rubygems, so ignore installing rubygems
gem -v =>1.3.1
4. Install Rails (this will take a while)
gem install rails =>Successfully installed rake-0.8.7 Successfully installed activesupport-2.3.4 Successfully installed activerecord-2.3.4 Successfully installed rack-1.0.0 Successfully installed actionpack-2.3.4 Successfully installed actionmailer-2.3.4 Successfully installed activeresource-2.3.4 Successfully installed rails-2.3.4 8 gems installed Installing ri documentation for rake-0.8.7...

5. My specialty: Install will-paginate: http://wiki.github.com/mislav/will_paginate/installation
6. Install mysql connector
apt-get install libmysql-ruby apt-get install libmysqlclient15-dev gem install mysql
7. Update system
gem update --system
8. Make a test app
rails TestApp -d mysql
Migrating an existing app made problems, here are some hints:
rake rails:update:application_controller rake tmp:clear # encoding: utf-8http://github.com/rack/rack/commit/44ed4640f077504a49b7f1cabf8d6ad7a13f6441
Uninstall#
gem uninstall rails
If paco is used
paco -r <your ruby package name>
