Act as Taggable with Rails 2.0

I've posted a different question just before -- but before I can try and get a better idea of my error message, I was trying to start my application and ran into other problems. My application was developed last year in rails 1.2.3. I since upgraded my computer and have the latest version of rails. When I tried to star the application I got the following error message:

/.../config/environment.rb:62: undefined method `require_gem' for main:Object (NoMethodError)         from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/ custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require'

my environment.rb: 62 has: require_gem 'acts_as_taggable' which I know isn't compatible

Would anyone have a suggestion on how to solve this?

Thanks Elle

Hi elle,     require_gem method has been deprecated. use simply 'require'.

Changing it to 'require' I now get the following error message:

/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require': no such file to load -- acts_as_taggable (MissingSourceFile)         from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/ custom_require.rb:27:in `require'         ....

I did install the gem. Should I install/update it? Thanks, Elle

Changing it to 'require' I now get the following error message:

Actually require_gem should be replaced with gem
