Hey Andre, I would recommend a few things that could make your life easier.
Use RVM. It allows you to easily install a local user copy of ruby without mucking about with your system. Follow the instructions at http://rvm.beginrescueend.com/rvm/install/ and remember - you don't have to be root. In fact, doing this stuff as root is discouraged unless you have a great reason to. For rails 3 I would recommend either ruby 1.8.7-p299 or 1.9.2- preview3. After you install rvm into your home directory in terminal, do an "rvm install ruby-1.8.7-p299" to get a good version of ruby running. from there, try your gem install rails --pre. and remember, doing everything from rvm means you no longer have to sudo anything. all your gems are installed on a per ruby basis and gives you a lot of control without forcing you to do a lot of work. hope this helps. - FJM On Jun 24, 11:10 pm, Andre joseph Cubeta <li...@ruby-forum.com> wrote: > I tried to install Rails 3 Beta in my snow.leopard machine using the > command below: (w/ sudo if it requires) > > gem install tzinfo builder memcache-client rack rack-test rack-mount > erubis mail text-format thor bundler i18n > > unfortunately after 12 gems installed i got an error regarding > builder-2.1.2 > > 12 gems installed > Installing ri documentation for tzinfo-0.3.22... > Installing ri documentation for builder-2.1.2... > ERROR: While generating documentation for builder-2.1.2 > ...
