Using symlinks to share files over several rails projects does not work
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JRUBY-4496
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-4496
Project: JRuby
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: JRuby 1.4, JRuby 1.5
Environment: Arch Linux (openjdk-1.6.2, jruby-git & jruby-1.4), OS X
10.6.2 (1.6.0_17-b04-248-10M3025, jruby-1.4)
Reporter: Vesa Kaihlavirta
Assignee: Thomas E Enebo
We have several rails projects which share some files, and we implement this
sharing by symlinks. Jruby handles this differently.
A simple testcase can be generated by making a new rails project, moving
config/boot.rb to another location, symlinking to it and starting the server.
After this, the following happens:
[ve...@louhikko project1]$ jruby -S script/server
/usr/home/vegai/tmp/jruby-bug/shared/config/boot.rb:103:in `initialize': No
such file or directory - File not found -
/usr/home/vegai/tmp/jruby-bug/shared/config/../config/environment.rb
(Errno::ENOENT)
from /usr/home/vegai/tmp/jruby-bug/shared/config/boot.rb:103:in
`read_environment_rb'
from /usr/home/vegai/tmp/jruby-bug/shared/config/boot.rb:80:in
`gem_version'
from /usr/home/vegai/tmp/jruby-bug/shared/config/boot.rb:59:in
`load_rails_gem'
from /usr/home/vegai/tmp/jruby-bug/shared/config/boot.rb:54:in
`load_initializer'
from /usr/home/vegai/tmp/jruby-bug/shared/config/boot.rb:38:in `run'
from /usr/home/vegai/tmp/jruby-bug/shared/config/boot.rb:11:in `boot!'
from /usr/home/vegai/tmp/jruby-bug/shared/config/boot.rb:110
from /usr/home/vegai/tmp/jruby-bug/shared/config/boot.rb:2:in `require'
from /usr/home/vegai/tmp/jruby-bug/project1/script/server:2
i.e. jruby&rails is trying to find environment.rb from the same place where the
symlinked boot.rb is. We also share unit tests like this over all our projects,
and jruby does not run unit tests in that case.
