Hey, &nbsp;&nbsp;I was having problems which I though might be related to the version of rails I had so I deleted rails in the /vendor folder. My app works fine but I get this error when trying to go to console:

Loading development environment (Rails 2.1.0) sh: irb: not found

Any ideas?

Dumn question, is irb installed? If not, install it (it's an optional  
install on some distros).
