Simple hopefully, newbish question, but how come it's saying starting in Rails 2.2.2 when I'm using 2.3.2 ?

I’m trying to get this app I have (I actually started it over fresh) to start up with rails 2.3.2

rick- ~/projects/rails/hockey $ sudo gem install rails -v 2.3.2 Password: Successfully installed rails-2.3.2

1 gem installed rick- ~/projects/rails/hockey $ sudo rake rails:update (in /Users/rick/projects/rails/hockey)

rick- ~/projects/rails/hockey $ ruby script/server => Booting Mongrel (use ‘script/server webrick’ to force WEBrick)

=> Rails 2.2.2 application starting on http://0.0.0.0:3000 => Call with -d to detach => Ctrl-C to shutdown server

** Starting Mongrel listening at 0.0.0.0:3000 ** Starting Rails with development environment… ** Rails loaded. ** Loading any Rails specific GemPlugins ** Signals ready. TERM => stop. USR2 => restart. INT => stop (no restart).

** Rails signals registered. HUP => reload (without restart). It might not work well. ** Mongrel 1.1.5 available at 0.0.0.0:3000 ** Use CTRL-C to stop.

my environment.rb file has

RAILS_GEM_VERSION = ‘2.3.2’ unless defined? RAILS_GEM_VERSION

and my bash_profile has export RAILS_GEM_VERSION=2.3.2

Why does it say “Rails 2.2.2 application starting on http://0.0.0.0:3000”

gem list shows: rick- ~/projects/rails/hockey $ gem list --local rails

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

rails (2.3.2, 2.2.2, 2.1.1, 2.1.0)

Anything in ~projects/rails/hockey/vendor/rails? That will override
any gems you have installed.

my environment.rb file has

and my bash_profile has export RAILS_GEM_VERSION=2.3.2

I would recommend removing the above environment variable from your

bash_profile.

Why does it say “Rails 2.2.2 application starting on http://0.0.0.0:3000”

gem list shows: rick- ~/projects/rails/hockey $ gem list --local rails

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

rails (2.3.2, 2.2.2, 2.1.1, 2.1.0)

What does ‘rails -v’ produce?

environment variable removed and no, nothing in vendor (except an empty plugins diretory) and yet still when it starts up it says 2.2.2

Ok now this is getting more frustrating. I did a gem cleanup and now I only have one version of rails installed:

gem list --local rails

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

rails (2.3.2)

But when I start the server it says: ruby script/server Missing the Rails 2.2.2 gem. Please gem install -v=2.2.2 rails, update your RAILS_GEM_VERSION setting in config/environment.rb for the Rails version you do have installed, or comment out RAILS_GEM_VERSION to use the latest version installed.

I’ve commented out the line in my environment.rb: #RAILS_GEM_VERSION = ‘2.3.2’ unless defined? RAILS_GEM_VERSION

and it still gives me the same message

Even doing rake rails:update says:

(in /Users/rick/projects/rails/hockey) Missing the Rails 2.2.2 gem. Please gem install -v=2.2.2 rails, update your RAILS_GEM_VERSION setting in config/environment.rb for the Rails version you do have installed, or comment out RAILS_GEM_VERSION to use the latest version installed.

I even tried just defining the version in the environment.rb without the unless RAILS_GEM_VERSION: RAILS_GEM_VERSION = ‘2.3.2’

and still same error.

What is going on?

No clue what the deal was but as a last ditch windows type effort (on a Mac) I rebooted. Sure enough the server is starting up using 2.3.2 ! No clue what the heck made the difference rebooting. I was even trying in new terminal windows to make sure it wasn’t some residual thing sourced in memory.

Oh well, it’s working now. Thanks for the patience.
