Hello,

I recently installed rails in fedora 12. I'm new to linux as well. Everything works fine on Windows 7. But I'm facing lot of problems in linux. Help please!

I've installed all the essentials to my knowledge to get the basic script/server up and running. I have this error from boot.rb popping up when I try script/server. Some of the details I'd like to give here:

The directories where rails, ruby and gem are installed,

[vineeth@localhost my_app]$ which ruby
/usr/local/bin/ruby

[vineeth@localhost my_app]$ which rails
/usr/bin/rails

[vineeth@localhost my_app]$ which gem
/usr/bin/gem

And when I run the script/server, this is the error.

[vineeth@localhost my_app]$ script/server
./script/../config/boot.rb:9:in `require': no such file to load -- rubygems (LoadError)
 from ./script/../config/boot.rb:9
 from script/server:2:in `require'
 from script/server:2

And the PATH file looks like this

[vineeth@localhost my_app]$ cat ~/.bash_profile
# .bash_profile

# Get the aliases and functions
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
 . ~/.bashrc
fi

# User specific environment and startup programs

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin

export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin/ruby:$PATH"

I suppose it is something to do with the PATH file. Let me know what I need to change here. If there are other changes I should make, please let me know, Thanks
