Ruby on Rails

PHP Version 5.1.6 Apache Version Apache/2.2.3 (CentOS)

Following instructions from 'Ruby On Rails and Virtualmin'

  1. I installed the required packages on a CentOS system:

[code:1]yum install ruby ruby-devel gcc make mysql-devel sqlite sqlite-devel[/code:1]

  1. Followed instructions for 'Installing Rails For a Virtual Server' with a database and clicked 'Install Now'.

  2. [code:1]Installing Ruby Gems package .. Installing package(s) with command yum -y install rubygems .. Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories Reading repository metadata in from local files Parsing package install arguments Nothing to do

.. install complete.

.. failed to install! [/code:1] 4. On searching these forums I came across a thread where it was mentioned that:

There is an oddity with the MySQL shared libraries on CentOS - they are not in a directory that Ruby looks in. The fix is to login as root via SSH and install manually with the command : gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-include=/usr/include/mysql --with-mysql-lib=/usr/lib/mysql The go back into Virtualmin and re-try the Rails install.

I got: [code:1] -bash: gem: command not found [/code:1] 5. [code:1]ruby -v ruby 1.8.5 (2006-08-25) [i386-linux]

-sh-3.1$ gem --version -sh: gem: command not found [/code:1] Appreciate some guidance as to what to do next.

Regards,
