Freezing 1.1.6

I've been slowly working my way backwards through my troubles and I realized that I do have access to the old server so maybe I ought to head back there to figure some of this out.

I have an app that is running on rails 1.1.6. I want to move it to a web host that is running 2.0.2.

The first step, it seemed to me, was to freeze it.

But rake rails:freeze:gems didn't work: [myapp]% rake rails:freeze:gems (in /users/home/somebody/sites/myapp) rake aborted! Don't know how to build task 'rails:freeze:gems'

(See full trace by running task with --trace)

I tried to specify the version in my environment.rb:

RAILS_GEM_VERSION = '1.1.6' unless defined? RAILS_GEM_VERSION

but that isn't cutting it. It still breaks down when it starts loading gems (line 52, if I comment that out, line 53):      52 require 'active_support'      53 require 'active_record'      54 require 'action_controller'      55 require 'action_mailer'      56 require 'action_web_service'

hmm... just try downloading 1.1.6 http://github.com/rails/rails/tarball/v1.1.6

and stick this into your vendor/rails directory should just work?
