Yes. But I had to use sudo as I got an error of some sort and a reference to my previous gem, the .gemrc. Not sure what that was. > Also it's a good idea, hogy uninstall, reinstall rubygems, since > sometimes it's wokring well around updates. Perhaps it's a good idea to uninstall and start over. > May I ask you to write here the output of theese commands: > ruby -v ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [i386-darwin10.5.0] > gem -v 1.3.7 > rvm -v rvm 1.1.1 by Wayne E.

Feels really good to read a post like yours. I appreciate your effort to help. :-) I've used Rails for a few years now, but I'm not the natural programmer and I can get stuck on technical stuff, even though I feel at home in the Terminal and such. This thing with rvm was new to me, and yes, a bit confusing. What I don't understand is how my old Rails 2 apps will deal with rvm. Will they use my old gems and run as before even though I've set rvm with 1.9.2 as --default? Well, it looks like they do but I'm not sure which gem is used and where. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
