[Rubygem on shared host] undefined method map for nil:NilClass

I can't start my Rails even using a simple ./script/about (see error output below).

My app is using Rails 2.1.0 on a shared host where rubygems (1.6.1) and all application's gems are installed in user directory.

It looks like if gem is looking at the wrong place to find its gems.

Config : [code] [silversurfer:/home/aidscompetence/communitylifecompetence.org/current]$ ls /usr/bin/gem ~/bin/gem /home/aidscompetence/bin/gem /usr/bin/gem [silversurfer:/home/aidscompetence/communitylifecompetence.org/current]$ which gem /home/aidscompetence/bin/gem [silversurfer:/home/aidscompetence/communitylifecompetence.org/current]$ gem env RubyGems Environment:   - RUBYGEMS VERSION: 1.6.1   - RUBY VERSION: 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) [x86_64-linux]   - INSTALLATION DIRECTORY: /home/aidscompetence/.gems   - RUBYGEMS PREFIX: /home/aidscompetence   - RUBY EXECUTABLE: /usr/bin/ruby1.8   - EXECUTABLE DIRECTORY: /home/aidscompetence/.gems/bin   - RUBYGEMS PLATFORMS:     - ruby     - x86_64-linux   - GEM PATHS:      - /home/aidscompetence/.gems   - GEM CONFIGURATION:      - :update_sources => true      - :verbose => true      - :benchmark => false      - :backtrace => false      - :bulk_threshold => 1000      - "gempath" => ["/home/aidscompetence/.gems"]      - "gem" => "--no-ri --no-rdoc"      - :sources => ["http://gems.github.com", "http://gems.rubyforge.org"]      - "gemhome" => "/home/aidscompetence/.gems"   - REMOTE SOURCES:      - http://gems.github.com      - http://gems.rubyforge.org [/code]

Error Output:

[code] [silversurfer:/home/aidscompetence/communitylifecompetence.org/current]$ ./script/about ./script/../config/../vendor/rails/railties/lib/initializer.rb:225:in `require_frameworks': no such file to load -- active_support/cache/file_store (RuntimeError)     from ./script/../config/../vendor/rails/railties/lib/initializer.rb:113:in `process'     from ./script/../config/../vendor/rails/railties/lib/initializer.rb:93:in `send'     from ./script/../config/../vendor/rails/railties/lib/initializer.rb:93:in `run'     from /home/aidscompetence/communitylifecompetence.org/releases/20100314224301/config/environment.rb:13     from /home/aidscompetence/lib/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `gem_original_require'     from /home/aidscompetence/lib/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require'     from /home/aidscompetence/communitylifecompetence.org/releases/20100314224301/vendor/rails/railties/lib/commands/about.rb:1     from /home/aidscompetence/lib/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `gem_original_require'     from /home/aidscompetence/lib/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require'     from ./script/about:3 [/code]

By the way, the file file_store.rb does exists :

[code] [silversurfer:/home/aidscompetence/communitylifecompetence.org/current]$ ls ~/.gems/gems/activesupport-2.1.0/lib/active_support/cache/file_store.rb /home/aidscompetence/.gems/gems/activesupport-2.1.0/lib/active_support/cache/file_store.rb [/code]

I can’t start my Rails even using a simple ./script/about (see error output below).

It looks like if gem is looking at the wrong place to find its gems.

It’s loading rails from vendor/rails (since that’s what happens if that folder exists). Is that what you wanted?
