 There is an old radiant site I'm trying to get working (again) on Dreamhost.

 The error on the web site is:

 -
  The application has exited during start-up (i.e. during the evaluation
 of config/environment.rb). The error message can be found below. To
 solve this problem, please follow any instructions in the error message.

 Error message:
 Your config/boot.rb is outdated: Run rake rails:update.

 yes but

 All this depends on which version of rails, ruby 

 I THINK is is 0.8.1 or 0.9.1

 I *seems* that there is no copy of the relevant revision of rails under
 /vendor/

Is there a copy of Radiant in vendor/radiant?

If not, check which version of the radiant gem you have and copy the
source to vendor/radiant.

If things are screwed up, you may not be able to run rake tasks
without running into errors like these. So putting a copy of Radiant
in vendor/radiant will at least freeze the initialization to that
copy. Radiant looks there first before looking to the gems you have.


 Which version rake to run
 The one in /usr/bin or the one in ~/.gems/bin ?

Don't attempt to update Rails for the project.

It appears as if you have Radiant 0.9.1, but run gem list radiant to
see what versions are on your server.
It's possible that the site was started with 0.8.1 (for example) but a
newer gem was later installed.

Try setting up vendor/radiant and let us know what happens then.

If you get different errors that means your changes did something. If
you keep getting the same error, then the problem might be elsewhere.

If you are successful in moving along, check out this gist where I
created instructions for upgrading https://gist.github.com/1540782

I'll update that with any details that you provide to help clarify the process.

GOTCHA!  I had it that far :-)

 It appears as if you have Radiant 0.9.1, but run gem list radiant to
 see what versions are on your server.

$ gem list radiant

 newer gem was later installed.

Its a long time since I did that, is this right?

$ rake radiant:freeze:gem

Oh, maybe other version of rake ...

 If you get different errors that means your changes did something. 

+1

Maybe I should try 0.8.1 ?

Is there a way I can force that?

If you keep getting the same error, then the problem might be elsewhere.
