rubygems.rb:528 is line 528, then the error is in the following
routine (specifically the last line of the routine):</p>
<pre>
<code>##
# Zlib::GzipReader wrapper that unzips +data+.
def self.gunzip(data)
require 'stringio'
require 'zlib'
data = StringIO.new data
Zlib::GzipReader.new(data).read
end</code>
</pre>
<p>Note that I have made sure that the issue is not due to
permission. There are no file permission issues and I am the
machine admin. I gather that my issue is directly germane to
unpacking the gem. Why? I have read of speculation that this error
comes about when RAM is choked. I will try later today to complete
this task on a laptop with 8GB of unencumbered RAM...let you
know.</p></div>Frank C. Pelletiertag:help.rubygems.org,2010-01-19:Comment/21946192010-07-07T20:58:15Z2010-07-07T20:58:15ZMongrel installation issues<div><p>You seem to be experiencing a Ruby bug, not a RubyGems bug. Zlib
is part of ruby, not RubyGems.</p></div>Eric Hodeltag:help.rubygems.org,2010-01-19:Comment/21946192010-07-17T20:39:56Z2010-07-17T20:39:56ZMongrel installation issues<div><p>I would try using the RubyInstaller project instead of
InstantRails. Going to consider this resolved, let us know if the
problems continue.</p></div>Nick Quaranto
