Version reporting mis-match

Cody Skidmore wrote:

After updating to Rails 1.2.1 using gem, I updated my project using Rake. Next, I tried verifying the rails version in my app. If you execute "Rails -v", it reports 1.2.1. But if you execute "ruby script\about" it reports Rails 1.1.6, or if you previously used Edge Rails, it report 1.2.0.

Does this look like part of the update didn't take?

I created a fresh project using Rails 1.2.1, and it reports the correct version in both.

Existing projects that are relying on your system-wide gems need config/environment.rb to be manually updated. The environment.rb was generated for you when you initially ran the "rails" command to generate your app, and it hard-codes the version of the rails gem you were using at that time. So just update the value in your environment.rb file.
