undefined class/module YAML::PrivateType - Error

[Priya D.]

Hi,

I have uploaded a new version of gem to the server, successfully. If i
install the gem from local, its successfully installed.

But I'm getting following error while installing the same gem from
remote server.

ERROR: While executing gem ... (ArgumentError)
undefined class/module YAML:rivateType

Note:

I have included a method outside of any class/module. Is there any issue
with that?

Thanks,
Priya

I also observed this behavior recently. It seems that it is an
incompatibility between ruby versions (1.8.7 vs. 1.9.2) and rubygems 1.5.0.

I've already submitted a ticket in rubygems's bug tracker:
http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=28906&group_id=126&atid=575

Have you got any response or do you found any solution to the same?

Not yet and it seems that many people are currently observing similar
behavior:
http://help.rubygems.org/discussion...ruby-192-do-not-install-properly-with-150-187

I've put ruby-core members in copy, to draw their attention on the problem.
I don't know how I can make better...

I finally figured out that removeing site_ruby from the equation fixed
it

$ sudo rm -rf /Users/kristianconsult/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p136/lib/
ruby/site_ruby

Has this really been fixed? I see the commit and checked the source
for 1.5.3, so the code fix applies to my setup, but I'm seeing the
error trying to install the (Kristian Mandrup's) cream gem.

Kristian's solution (for his own problem) of rm -rf the site_ruby
doesn't work for me.

Ryan,

Just to confirm, is your successful install above done with ruby
1.9.2? If so, I'll have to look into rvm as the source of the
problem.

(I installed cream with ruby 1.8.7 under rvm just fine.)

Thanks,
Ming

I got a similar issue while installing roles_mongoid on my system
(Ubuntu 10.04 (32b), using rvm, ruby: 1.9.2-p180, rubygems 1.6.1). So
the exception is the same, in fact I tried to install it by cloning the
gem repo and got the same results:

roles_mongoid$ rake install --trace

Does anyone faced a similar problem or have any idea about this issue ?

BTW: By using other rubygems version (such us 1.5.x) I've got the same
issue. But, If I use Rubygems 1.3.7 I've got a different issue:

$ rake install

Any help would be highly appreciated

Huh... I don't get that error at all! I get something much much better:

Which is about seven levels of awesome in my book!

In your case... can you do the following for me?

% gem spec pkg/roles_mongoid-0.4.5.gem | grep PrivateType

and if that doesn't match at all try this:

% rm -rf ~/.gem/specs/*

But really at this point I'm just guessing.=
