I am running Leopard. I tried to run "sudo gem install rails" and all seems to work fine except at the end I get this "error": File not found: lib.

Mac Leopard 10.6.4
Gem 1.3.7
Rails: 3.0.0
Ruby 1.8.7

    Could you provide a stack trace / console output along with the gem command you ran? Also, the output of gem env would be helpful too.

    don't know how to do the trace you talked about. I'll look for some options.

    I face the same problem.
    At first I had trouble with the zlib library:
    http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/71774#654760

    and now this happens.
    It doesnt look like a gems problem. Maybe a problem within the repository?
    I googled a bit and found this:
    http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/208560#926150

    It works out, but I end up having installed rails only:

    I just created a new app,
    I still have some trouble to start the mongrel server.
    It requests a mysql2 gem file - whatever... and recommends me to run bundle_install.
    Doesnt work. But I guess, I will get it work tomorrow.

    I am still pretty new to rails.
    The RI docs is like the manual function in linux environment?
    So, if I dont use it, I wont need it.

    Thx ;)

    File not found: lib is probably due to an outdated RDoc. Upgrade to a newer version and try again. I cannot reproduce this with a modern version.
