PORuby gems repository

copied!<p>I'm trying to set a gem repository on one of our local servers. Here are the steps I'm running, that I've followed from several guides.</p> <p>1) I create the <em>BASEDIR</em> folder <em>/var/www/html/gems</em><br/> 2) sudo cp -r /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/someGem /var/www/html/gems<br/> 3) sudo gem generate_index -d /var/www/html/gems</p> <p>However, when I run this, I get the following output:</p> <pre><code>Loading 0 gems from /var/www/html/gems Loaded all gems Generating quick index gemspecs for 0 gems Complete Generating specs index Generating latest specs index Generating quick index Generating latest index Generating Marshal master index Generating YAML master index for 0 gems (this may take a while) Complete Compressing indicies </code></pre> <p>It's not loading the gem for some reason. I did see a guide that recommended making the <em>BASEDIR</em> as <em>/var/www/html/rubygems/</em> and then further make a <em>gems/</em> directory within the <em>BASEDIR</em> and copy the desired gems to this <em>gems/</em> directory. I also tried this, but was getting the same results.</p> <p>Our server had the unfortunate luck of having the same configuration as mentioned in this <a href="http://rambleon.org/2007/12/03/your-own-gem-server-and-ruby-185/" rel="noreferrer">post</a> (RHEL5, ruby 1.8.5, /var and /tmp on separate partitions), but we upgraded as suggested to ruby 1.8.6, but it still won't load the gem.</p> <p>Has anyone come across this? Found a solution?</p>
