Comment on Install ImageMagick & RMagick on RHEL5 by rogerdpack

to overcome the libgomp stuff looks like you need to compile imagemagick –disable-openmp http://betterlogic.com/roger/?p=413

mod_rails might work for this, too–hopefully more reliably.

Comment on Install ImageMagick & RMagick on RHEL5 by grega

Great page. Thanks for the help and clarity, esp. regarding Setp #2.

But I’m curious to know what exact version of GCC and libgomp you are running ?

My step #3 is failing on a brand-new RHEL5 install, with the following revs:
gcc (GCC) 4.1.1 20070105 (Red Hat 4.1.1-52)
libgomp.x86_64 4.1.1-52.el5.2 installed
libgomp.i386 4.1.1-52.el5.2 installed

Unfortunately, step #3 and/or compile RMagick from source seems to be giving me a problem on RHEL5, seemingly due to a problem with my version of libgomp.so maybe having been compiled (by RedHat?) with a ‘nodlopen’ flag.
Running ‘gem install rmagick’ aborts with : ‘LoadError: libgomp.so.1: shared object cannot be dlopen()ed ‘. If I build RMagick.so manually and install it, I get the same exact message from within irb when running: require ‘RMagick’.
There is reference to a bug which may be related at:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28482

But I’m totally stumped as to why you seem to have NOT run into any such problems or issues when simply running:
gem install rmagick

Thanks.

Hey binkly,
I’m really sorry but I’ve not used Rails with Sybase at all.

Offering my $0.02, it looks like a problem with your adapter. Forgive me if you’ve already seen this, but are you using the sybase anywhere adapter from the wiki.rubyonrails site? If not, I’d suggest trying it out and then trying to connect again.

Hello, I’m writing to ask if you have any experience connecting to a Sybase DB with Rails. I’ve followed your outlined steps and running basic tests works, but from within Rails I get the following error:

`establish_connection’:ActiveRecord::AdapterNotFound: database configuration specifies nonexistent sybase adapter

If I set the adapter name to sqlserver everything starts up fine, but hangs when I try to do any ActiveRecord activity.

Do you know if there are special instructions for setting up FreeTDS to work with Sybase and rails?

Thanks,

Something important it is miss in the tutorial. To be able to use rapt for these plugins you should first register the new sources as:

rapt source http://topfunky.net/svn/plugins

After this is done you should be able to install the plugin using:

rapt install calendar_helper

This apply to every new source repository for plugins.

I hope this will clarify why you were unable to install this.

Regards

A quick tip for anyone surfing in from Google and using these instructions: The version of ruby-odbc listed (0.996) occasionally crashes with the error “[RubyODBC]No data found”. To fix this, upgrade to 0.9993.

Thanks for this article!

Comment on Internet Market “Widgetized” Update: v0.2 by joe

Also, I don’t like the way block quotes look in this theme. Anyone who wants to can use this css to create better blockquotes…just replace the blockquote section in your style.css with this…I think it looks better..

blockquote {
display: block;
width: 320px;
margin: 30px;
}

blockquote:before, blockquote:after {
color: #69c;
display: block;
font-size: 666%;
width: 40px;
}

blockquote:before {
content: open-quote;
height: 0;
margin-left: -0.45em;
}
blockquote:after {
content: close-quote;
height: 50px;
margin-left: 330px;
}
