Question

I ve just had a new VPS set up and have installed Passenger with Ruby Enterprise Edition. However, I can t get rake to work.

/opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.7-2010.01/bin/gem list

* LOCAL GEMS *

actionmailer (2.3.5, 2.2.3)
actionpack (2.3.5, 2.2.3)
activerecord (2.3.5, 2.2.3)
activeresource (2.3.5, 2.2.3)
activesupport (2.3.5, 2.2.3)
fastthread (1.0.7)
formtastic (0.9.7)
justinfrench-formtastic (0.2.4)
mysql (2.8.1)
passenger (2.2.9)
rack (1.1.0, 1.0.1)
rails (2.3.5, 2.2.3)
rails-settings (1.0.0)
rake (0.8.7)
sqlite3-ruby (1.2.5)

When I try and run a rake task, I get:

-bash: rake: command not found

Can anyone help?

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks.

I ve been using REE for about a year and have always had this problem, which I ve always handled by doing this:

cd /usr/local/bin
sudo ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.7-2010.01/bin/ruby
sudo ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.7-2010.01/bin/gem
sudo ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.7-2010.01/bin/irb
sudo ln -s /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.7-2010.01/bin/rake

I also had to do this for additional binaries installed by gems. Just for reference, I m using Ubuntu.

Alternatively, you can modify your environment s path (which would save you from having to create symlinks for new binaries), but I prefer this method as I run scripts as different users and don t want to modify everyone s path.

Had the same problem, after doing "gem install rake".

Fixed this by doing "sudo apt-get install rake".
