Rubymine has an error when trying to create a new rails project.

Update: If I create a rails project via command line and open the folder through Rubymine, it looks like it works (I see files... haven't added anything to the project yet) but thats really unacceptable. This needs to be working out-of-the-box.

Hi,

What ruby version do you use? We need this information to try reproduce this.
We've tested creating Rails application with rails 2.3.5 and everything was fine.

Regards,
Oleg

Oleg,

Thanks for the reply. I'm using:

ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel 174) [x86_64-linux]

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I'm using:

ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel 174) [x86_64-linux]

and rails 2.3.5

I've just checked Rails project creation on Ubuntu Karmic 64, ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel 174) [x86_64-linux], rails (2.3.5) and everything worked fine for me.
Do you have only single version of ruby installed on your machine?
Please have a look at rails script itself and ensure it first line points to your ruby1.8 installation.

Regards,
Oleg

Also please create 'empty project' and invoke Tools | Show Gem Environment action.

Paul,

Please attach content of a /usr/bin/rails script. We expected that it is a ruby script (as it always is), but seems in your case it is a bash script.

Thanks for being so prompt:

Right here is my rubymine .sh

However it resides in my home (;home/broomie/rubymine93.202/bin directory not usr/bin  is this the issue - I think I followed the Rubymine advice on installing for Linux!

Paul,

I asked content of /usr/bin/rails not, rubymine.sh. Obviously problem is in rails script

Yes, they changed content of "rails" script. It's not a "ruby" script any more. Please file an issue - http://youtrack.jetbrains.net/issues/RUBY
