linux下安装ruby的环境 nginx+passenger出现的问题及解决

今天，帮一个朋友解决gem问题，服务器是 Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy。所有 gem 操作都出 301 错误，gem env 显示如下：

# gem env
RubyGems Environment:
  - VERSION: 0.9.4 (0.9.4)
  - INSTALLATION DIRECTORY: /var/lib/gems/1.8
  - GEM PATH:
     - /var/lib/gems/1.8
  - REMOTE SOURCES:
     - http://gems.rubyforge.org

gem -v 显示版本号是 0.0.4，版本太老了。肯定是 gems.rubyforge.org重定向的原因，用 curl 检查，果然是重定向到 rubygems.org 了。

curl -I gems.rubyforge.org

使用 gem sources -r  及 gem sources -c 都不好用，还是出错。最后，删掉重装：

<code>

apt-get remove rubygems
wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/70696/rubygems-1.3.7.tgz
tar xvzf rubygems-1.3.7.tag
cd rubygems-1.3.7
ruby setup.rb

最后提示安装了 /usr/bin/gem1.8，需要做个符号链接：

cd /usr/bin
ln -sf gem1.8 gem

Done.

3.提示以下错误extconf.rb:2:in `require': no such file to load -- mkmf (LoadError) from extconf.rb:2

Building native extensions.  This could take a while...

ERROR:Errorinstallingmysql2:

ERROR:Failedtobuildgemnativeextension.

/usr/bin/ruby1.8extconf.rb

extconf.rb:2:in`require':nosuchfiletoload--mkmf(LoadError)

原因：缺少mkmf，mkmf.rb is part of the ruby1.8-dev package。

解决办法：sudo apt-get install ruby1.8-dev
