Actually ... are you using ruby 1.8.x ? Is that line irb(main):001> require 'pg' really your first line in the irb session ? Should you not do require 'rubygems' first ? (IIRC, required in 1.8.x but no longer in 1.9.x) My previous test was on ruby 1.9.2 and may have confused both of us (sorry for that ...). In ruby 1.8.7 (system ruby), I see this: pet...@asus:~$ rvm use Now using system ruby. # which 1.8.7.249-2 on Ubuntu 10.04 pet...@asus:~$ gem list | grep pg pg (0.10.0) pet...@asus:~$ irb irb(main):001:0> require 'pg' # should NOT work yet LoadError: no such file to load -- pg from (irb):1:in `require' from (irb):1 from :0 irb(main):002:0> require 'rubygems' => true irb(main):003:0> require 'pg' => true irb(main):004:0> Object.constants.grep(/PG/) => ["PGconn", "PGresult", "PGError"] HTH, Peter -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
