Hi,

Did you install gettext gem of win32 version?

Hi,

  I work with Guilherme. Yes, we did install gettext gem for win32 (1.8.0). We have it for granted that is an installation issue cus the very same code works in my computer but not in his. Any tip else?

  Thank you   Ricardo

Hi Massao,

  We've made some new tests and realized that this error message (uninitialized constant System) occurs even when GNU GetText is not installed. The System variable MSGMERGE_PATH is correctly setted.   We've tried to reinstall gnu gettext, reinstall gettext gems with no results. Furthermore we tried to locate another installation of gettext and did not get any results.   I think that in application.rb when we try to require the gettext gem (require 'gettext/rails') it do not locate gnu gettext.

Hope you can point us to solve this issue. Thank you for your help.

I've done some further tests and seems to me that since gettext1.8 it is not necessary to have gnu gettext installed. Massao, is that correct?

Ruby-GetText doesn't use GNU Gettext on runtime. (It is used when you execute "rake updatepo" only)

You said "reinstall gettext gems".... I think you have OTHER versions of Ruby-GetText which don't depend on rubygems. Did you check it?

Anyway, it may be better to uninstall and remove all of ruby files(c:\ruby) then reinstall ruby and gems.

HTH,

Hello Masao,

We finally found the solution. There was some problem with msvcr71.dll. It was in Aptana's folder... We moved it to system32 and now it works fine.

Thanks a lot for your help. Have a nice day :slight_smile:
