Hello,

I cant seem to run my console. I get the following error

~/workspace/testtube $ ./script/console Loading development environment (Rails 2.2.2) /usr/local/ruby_test/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/i686-darwin9.6.0/ readline.bundle: dlopen(/usr/local/ruby_test/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/ i686-darwin9.6.0/readline.bundle, 9): Symbol not found: _rl_filename_completion_function (LoadError)   Referenced from: /usr/local/ruby_test/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/i686- darwin9.6.0/readline.bundle   Expected in: flat namespace - /usr/local/ruby_test/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/i686-darwin9.6.0/ readline.bundle   from /usr/local/ruby_test/lib/ruby/1.8/irb/completion.rb:10   from /usr/local/ruby_test/lib/ruby/1.8/irb/init.rb:252:in `require'   from /usr/local/ruby_test/lib/ruby/1.8/irb/init.rb:252:in `load_modules'   from /usr/local/ruby_test/lib/ruby/1.8/irb/init.rb:250:in `each'   from /usr/local/ruby_test/lib/ruby/1.8/irb/init.rb:250:in `load_modules'   from /usr/local/ruby_test/lib/ruby/1.8/irb/init.rb:21:in `setup'   from /usr/local/ruby_test/lib/ruby/1.8/irb.rb:54:in `start'   from /usr/local/ruby_test/bin/irb:13 ~/workspace/testtube $

Hi, it appears that you’re missing the installation of readline. Thus,

you’ll need to install it before you can continue.
