it seems you're running version 0.9.5 of RubyGems, please update to 1.0.1 and uninstall the offending gems. I've described this issue in a blog post: http://blog.mmediasys.com/2007/12/19/latest-rubygems-and-rails-is-a-deadly-combo/ And a few times on ruby-talk: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.ruby/browse_thread/thread/a594343b8ada2cc3 HTH, -- Luis Lavena Multimedia systems - A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.
