One day at a time

I just updated to rails 2.1.2 and see this error:

undefined method `init_gettext’ for ApplicationController:Class

To resolve it.

1. make sure you have the latest gettext gems.
2. if it does not help, try add this to the first line of your app/controllers/application.rb
   • require ‘gettext/rails’

If you cannot do “gem install mysql”, it returns:

/usr/local/bin/ruby extconf.rb install mysql

checking for main() in -lm… yes

*** extconf.rb failed ***
Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of
necessary libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more
details. You may need configuration options.

Try this:

gem install mysql — \

> –with-mysql-lib=/usr/lib/mysql
