Repositories for rake and RubyGems ? (RubyForge is down)

Added by Barbara Post almost 15 years ago

Hello,

I'm setting up Rails and redmine 0.8 on my Windows Vista machine.

I've successfully installed Rails with the following command (I want to have a clean install):

.\gem.bat install rails --source http://gems.rubyonrails.org --version 2.1.2

If I don't specify the source option no gem is found.

I need to install rake v 0.8.3 and RubyGems v 1.3.1.

Rubyforge / http://gems.rubyforge.org sites seems to be down now.

Thanks for helping me finding a working repository that I can use. Maybe a list of mirrors somewhere ?

Barbara

I found the solution (was struggling a lot before posting then posted after a while of editing).

This site (http://de.mirror.rubyforge.org/gems/) I had a page opened at has what I was looking for. What I only had to do was downloading the correct file and installing it this way :

PS C:\Users\bpost\Downloads> C:\Ruby-186-27\bin\gem.bat install rake-0.8.3.gem

Stupidly simple !
