[Re: Rails guides build problem]

Hi,

I'm forwarding this question to you, as adviced by Pratik.

I'm trying to generate the Rails guides but I'm getting errors both in trunk and 2-3-stable branches.

I have already generated the guides in the past without problems but since some time ago it gives me the errors below.

Thanks in advance,

Rodrigo.

I've not tracked down the culprit, but some new code in ActionView that didn't require a :locals option now it does. Don't have time to check whether it should, but we pass an empty :locals anyway in the guides generator, just pushed that.

Now there's an issue with the credits template. We'll investigate that one (follows a different path). As a temporary workaround you could use the ONLY environment variable to generate only one guide, or remove railties/guides/source/credits.erb.textile to generate everything but that one and checkout later.

Thank you, it is all working now, including the credits.

Great work!

Rodrigo.

Yeah I could fix credits and index as well.

Now guides look weird. Something else has changed regarding content_for or something (the guides generator itself uses ActionView) and some stuff is inserted in a strange way into the layout.

I'm on it...

I was wondering if we should remove the link to "Why’s (Poignant) Guide to Ruby" now that _Why is gone and the site is offline. Or maybe point the link to another working url (anyone knows where this guide can be found?)...
