[Venkat Alla]

Hi

The following is my configuration -

OS - OS X 10.4.11
Ruby version - 1.8.6
gem version - 1.3.1
Active record version - 2.3.2 (the old versions still exist on the
machine if that matter)
mod_ruby version - 1.3

I have test script that has only three entries thats throwing the
internal server error, here is the script -

#!/usr/local/bin/ruby

require 'rubygems'
require 'active_record'

Adn the error message from the apache logs -

[Mon Apr 27 18:33:12 2009] [error] mod_ruby: error in ruby
[Mon Apr 27 18:33:12 2009] [error] mod_ruby:

Where are your gems installed, and where is apache looking to find gems?

Are you sure the AR gem is where apache is looking?

Thanks for reply James.

I think I found the issues. One of the dependencies for the
active_record, which is activesupport ended up in
~/.gem/ruby/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.2 directory. Looks like the
apache could not get to it, while the same script works fine from the
command line.

A new 'gem install activesupport' resolved that issue.

However before I figured this I moved on to 'fastcgi', and ditched
'mod_ruby'. I may test it again with 'mod_ruby' just make sure that is
the case.
