I'm having a wee bit of trouble building documentation for Edge Rails
(rev 7187). When I attempt to run the doc:rails taask (or any doc:*
task), I get the following error:

Has anyone else encountered this issue? I can't seem to find any

This works fine for me.

You could ask the rdoc maintainers on ruby-talk. They'll probably be
able to help.

Thanks for the tip. I’ll check it out.

James,

I just ran into this problem myself. It turned out to be because of a
"require 'gettext/utils'". I moved this requirement into the tasks
that actually needed it (there were two of them, make_mo and
update_po). This fixed the problem.

I would suggest looking to see if you have any require statements that
you can move into the tasks that actually need them.

However, that said, the following are must be at the top of Rakefile

<<EOF
require(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'config', 'boot'))

require 'rake'
require 'rake/testtask'
require 'rake/rdoctask'

require 'tasks/rails'
EOF

Hope that helps!

Hey Tim!

Thanks for the email. I’m in the process of taking a look for this requirement that you spoke of (require ‘gettext/utils’). Do you remember roughly where you found it?

Ah, I figured it out. I was inspired by your email to poke around in my Rake files. It turns out I had written a Rake file that required the environment. This caused all my problems.

Glad you could get the problem fixed!
