Unable to run working edge app with vendored rails.

#2567 

$ mkdir -p edge/vendor/rails

Everything is fine so far.

    No it's not you, I can't generate a working edge rails app either.

    • Title changed from Unable to generate working edge app. to Unable to run working edge app with vendored rails.

    +1

    Changing title, as the following worksforme.

    
$ git clone git://github.com/rails/rails.git 
$ ruby rails/railties/bin/rails new_project
$ cd new_project
$ script/server

    However, it doesn't work, and I get the same errors as Andriy, as soon as I add rails into vendor.

    I played with it for a bit, to try to get it to work. It seems like ActiveSupport is just not loaded when /vendor/rails/railties/lib/rails/plugin.rb:1 is run.

    E.g. requiring rubygems and active_support move the error to another file. Requiring that file moves it to another file.

    Try instead from your rails directory

    cd vendor git clone git://github.com/rails/rails.git cd rails git checkout -b 2-3-stable origin/2-3-stable

    @ Vidal Graupera ... and I will get stable 2-3 version of rails, right? I can get it without touching repo - from my gem. =)

    With git clone git://github.com/rails/rails.git cd rails git checkout -b 2-3-stable origin/2-3-stable I'll be able to contribute to 2.3-stable bugfix? And the fact that edge is not usable for apps is ok - is that your point?

    Perhaps contributor guide needs new section about usage of edge, and role of repo tags - I am not getting the idea :(

    OK, going back to 2-3-stable fixes the problem so now it's a question of binary searching to see which commit after 2-3-stable introduced the problem.

    Found it!

    Commit ab321268f86d9013cbd4ecd0b5f46e7b05ec55a9 "No more free lunch"

    After that commit you can't load Rails, before it you can. The commit relates to core_ext/kernel/requires.rb which is the thing missing.

    I'll email Jeremy Kemper, it's one of his commits.

    Just a +1. I've had the same issue from edge in vendor/rails.

    • Tag set to active_support core_ext

    So now we know which commit introduced the change we need to write a test to make sure that Rails can load. I was using script/console to test each version while binary searching. There must be a test already in the test suite to make sure that Rails console can load, clearly it didn't pick up this issue for some reason.

    Looking at your backtrace, you're getting a mix of vendor/rails and the non-edge activesupport gem.

    Jeremy, Thanks - I think you may have found the problem. I will look at tonight and post if I can find solution.

    Jeremy. This seems to be an odd mix of problems.

    The rake -T --trace problem where it goes hunting in the gem version of active support rather than in vendor/rails is introduced in commit 7f6779c1d5e4ec7f642839caa7e86320720f77c8 "merge branch master into 'cherry'"

    The seemingly similar problem with script/console or script/server comes in with commit ab321268f86d9013cbd4ecd0b5f46e7b05ec55a9 "No more free lunch"

    That one doesn't involve the system looking for files in gem rails, it seems to be all within vendor/rails as in the traces in the message at the start of this thread.

    I made some updates to the boot process. Generating an app, using the console, and running the server work for me. Thanks for the report!

    Interesting, works for me on 1.8.7, but reproducible with 1.8.6. I'll fix.

    The problem was that AS isn't yet added to the load path when this file is required. Fixed by lazy-requiring the extension.

    I resolved this by setting the variable RUBYLIB as defined in here:
    http://www.tutorialspoint.com/ruby/ruby_environment_variables.htm

    I typed into my terminal:

    export RUBYLIB=/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/:/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.1.0/lib:/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/i486-linux/
    Probably your path is different.
    To find the right path, wo can write

    updatedb

    locate active_support/core_ext/kernel/reporting.rb
    And add to RUBYLIB what comes before "active_support".
    (updatedb is only needed the first time)

    Best regards.
