`gem install mongrel` fails with ruby 1.9.1
- by atlantis
I initiated myself into rails development yesterday.
I installed ruby 1.9.1, rubygems and rails.
Running gem install mongrel worked fine and ostensibly installed mongrel too. I am slightly puzzled because:
script/server starts webrick by default
which mongrel returns nothing
locate mongrel returns lots of entries like

Does look like I have mongrel installed (both the default installation and my custom install). So why doesn't which mongrel return something.
Also trying to reinstall mongrel using gem install mongrel returns throws its own set of exceptions:
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing mongrel:
