macgem crashes while installing any gem

Reported by: amadeusz.jasak+macruby@… Owned by: lsansonetti@…
Priority: blocker Milestone: MacRuby 0.6
Component: MacRuby Keywords: macgem, gem
Cc: amadeusz.jasak+macruby@…

Description

Hi, I've installed the latest daily build of MacRuby (09.10.09), I used to use MacRuby few months ago without any problems. I've upgraded to Snow Leopard and Xcode 3.2 so I needed the newest build. There is a problem while installing any gem (dm-core, haml, sinatra...) eg. 

bash-3.2# macruby -v
MacRuby version 0.5 (ruby 1.9.0) [universal-darwin10.0, x86_64]

bash-3.2# macgem install dm-core
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (ArgumentError)
    Illformed requirement [nil]

Not working on Macruby 0.5 beta 1 too... :(

Could you paste your ~/.gemrc file if you have one? Also, could you pass -V to `macgem install' and paste us the output?

  Changed 2 years ago by lsansonetti@…

Also, were you able to install a gem before getting this problem? Is there anything in ~/.gem/macruby/1.9.0/gems or /Library/Frameworks/MacRuby.framework/Versions/0.5/usr/lib/ruby/Gems/1.9.0/gems?

  Changed 2 years ago by amadeusz.jasak+macruby@…

I could use gems in previous versions. There were some gems in gems directories, but none of them were working :( So I removed contents of gems/ and after 

$ sudo macgem install -V dm-core

ERROR:  While executing gem ... (ArgumentError)
    Illformed requirement [nil]

Now there are both addressable and extlib gems installed, but not dm-core, because macgem crashed. What is interesting 

$ macirb 
irb(main):001:0> require 'rubygems'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> require 'extlib'
=> true
irb(main):003:0> require 'addressable/uri'
LoadError: no such file to load -- addressable/uri
	from core:in `raise:'
	from core:in `require:'

So I can load only the first gem not the second, what is pretty strange - dm-core is still not installed.

  Changed 2 years ago by lsansonetti@…

I was able to install the dm-core gem on my environment but it cannot be loaded after because bigdecimal has not been implemented yet. 

$ macgem install dm-core

It looks like there is something wrong in your environment. It would be interesting to investigate where exactly in rubygems this "Illformed requirement [nil]" exception is raised.

Also, could you try the following: `VM_DISABLE_RBO=1 macgem install dm-core' and let us know if it still fails.

  Changed 2 years ago by amadeusz.jasak+macruby@…

VM_DISABLE_RBO=1 macgem install dm-core doesn't change anything... Good to know that DataMapper woudn't work anyway. But I still want to solve my problem.

According to  http://www.google.com/codesearch?hl=en&sa=N&q=%22Illformed+requirement%22++lang:ruby&ct=rr&cs_r=lang:ruby this error means there is something wrong with version string parser. Because it's nil (Illformed requirement [nil], isn't it?) it cannot work correctly. The question is why it's nil?

  Changed 23 months ago by martinlagardette@…

This should be fixed with the latest trunk, can you verify?

  Changed 23 months ago by lsansonetti@…

  • status changed from new to closed
  • resolution set to fixed
  • milestone changed from MacRuby 0.5 to MacRuby 0.6

I tried with ToT and the dm-core gem seems to be installable (as well as its dependencies). However it cannot be loaded: 

$ /usr/local/bin/macruby -e "require 'rubygems'; require 'dm-core'; p 42"
/Library/Frameworks/MacRuby.framework/Versions/0.6/usr/lib/ruby/Gems/1.9.0/gems/addressable-2.1.1/lib/addressable/idna.rb:4696: regexp `\0+\z 'compilation error: U_REGEX_BAD_ESCAPE_SEQUENCE
/Users/lrz/src/macruby-trunk/-e:1:in `<main>': no such file to load -- dm-core (LoadError)
$

Apparently the addressable gem has a regular expression that ICU won't compile. But this is a separate issue that should be tracked by another bug. So I am closing this one, let us know if macgem still does not work for you and we will re-investigate.
