Initial Configuration Fails with NameError

Added by Anonymous about 9 years ago

I'm trying to install Redmine 3 on a brand new, fully updated CentOS 7 VM. I've followed the instructions on RedmineInstall through to my failure at Step 5 ("session store secret generation").

Here's what happens:

[redmine@kropotkin redmine]$ rake generate_secret_token --trace

This seems similar to, but is not the same as, the issues at http://www.redmine.org/boards/2/topics/45380 and here http://www.redmine.org/issues/18891.

The problem looks like it should be simple enough to solve, though I've never worked in Ruby before so I don't know how to troubleshoot it myself. I'd have included the config files already, but they don't seem related. I would be happy to provide any additional information. Thanks in advance for your advice!

RE: Initial Configuration Fails with NameError - Added by Dmitriy Petrov about 9 years ago

Hi! Going here with your invitation. I had a similar problem, mine OS was Win2003, and ruby version was 2.2.1.
If you will see deeper, inspect what must be done with action "generate_secret_token" - it's very simple action, just generate random string and write it into file, no frameworks, no magic at all. So I think problem appears on loading ruby environment - all those modules, gems, frameworks... It seems that ruby just can not load it's modules, "autoload" operators do nothing for some reason.
Switching to ruby 2.0 version was solution for me.

RE: Initial Configuration Fails with NameError - Added by Anonymous about 9 years ago

Since I was already using Ruby 2.0.0, I couldn't switch to it. I don't know why my problems went away, but it works now. First I tried the 3.0.1 release, but that still didn't work. Then I uninstalled all the gems, installed as many gems as I could from system packages (I thought this would make it worse) then re-installed all the gems (many of them clobbering system gems).

Here's what I have installed now:

actionmailer (4.2.0)
actionpack (4.2.0)
actionpack-action_caching (1.1.1)
actionpack-xml_parser (1.0.1)
actionview (4.2.0)
activejob (4.2.0)
activemodel (4.2.0)
activerecord (4.2.0)

globalid (0.3.3)
hike (1.2.3)
i18n (0.7.0)
io-console (0.4.2)

mime-types (2.4.3, 1.19)
mini_portile (0.6.2)
minitest (5.5.1, 4.3.2)
multi_json (1.11.0, 1.7.1)
net-ldap (0.6.1, 0.3.1)
nokogiri (1.6.6.2, 1.6.1)
pg (0.17.1)
protected_attributes (1.0.9)
psych (2.0.0)
rack (1.6.0, 1.5.2)
rack-openid (1.4.2)
rack-test (0.6.3)
rails (4.2.0)
rails-deprecated_sanitizer (1.0.3)
rails-dom-testing (1.0.6)
rails-html-sanitizer (1.0.2)
railties (4.2.0)
rake (10.4.2, 0.9.6)
rbpdf (1.18.5)
rdoc (4.0.0)
redcarpet (3.1.2)
request_store (1.0.5)
rmagick (2.13.4)
ruby-openid (2.3.0)
sprockets (2.12.3)
sprockets-rails (2.2.4)
thor (0.19.1, 0.17.0)
thread_safe (0.3.5)
tilt (1.4.1)
tzinfo (1.2.2)

So that doesn't appear to explain anything, but at least it works now!

RE: Initial Configuration Fails with NameError - Added by Yang Li over 8 years ago

I met the same problem. I'm using ruby 2.0.0 under centos 7 too.

RE: Initial Configuration Fails with NameError - Added by xat xat about 8 years ago

I have exactly same issue with :
- CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511 (Core)
- ruby 2.0.0p598 (2014-11-13) [x86_64-linux]

Not able to fix it for the moment.

Thank you team

RE: Initial Configuration Fails with NameError - Added by Christian Rößner almost 8 years ago

Hi, I can confirm this. Same problem. I can not continue with the installation.

Fully updated CentOS 7. Ruby from distribution. I installed rails with "gem install --no-user-install rails".

bundle install --without development test

Paulo,

Attempting to run bundle install without nokogiri causes a failure. How did you manage to get around that?

RE: Initial Configuration Fails with NameError - Added by Paulo Moreira over 7 years ago

Hello Timothy,

What is the failure cause?

RE: Initial Configuration Fails with NameError - Added by Timothy Farmer over 7 years ago

Same as the above messages.

[centos@ip-10-0-0-10 redmine-3.3.1]$ bundle exec rake generate_secret_token
Your bundle is locked to nokogiri (1.6.8.1), but that version could not be found in any of the sources listed in your Gemfile. If you haven't changed sources, that means the author of >nokogiri (1.6.8.1) has removed it. You'll need to update your bundle to a different version of nokogiri (1.6.8.1) that hasn't been removed in order to install.
