Editing cards shows HTML source code, not usable form fields+discussion

Sorry about the frustration, we definitely want it to be easier too. Thx for the screenshot, that will probably help. I'm not sure what to suggest (I'm not a coder, but one will probably stop by within a day or so), other than to (dare I suggest) check if you have all the gems on What gems do I need and what version should they be? --John Abbe

What version of rails are you using? There was a bug introduced after 2.3.5, such that others have reported related errors on later versions (even 2.3.6).

As for the more general installation problems, I know this doesn't help you now, but we're expecting to make the process dramatically simpler soon. Sorry it's been a pain.

Using rails 2.3.8... Plus it turns out (despite my belief to the contrary) that there was still something missing. (I didn't get the long traceback and/or build option errors that the other gems had initially generated before I went through and fixed them, so I guess I just missed the subtler messages in all of the long terminal scrollback info.)

Unfortunately, that says I'm done.

The remaining problem is purportedly not solvable unless I have gems 1.3.6 or better, and Ubuntu 10.04 has 1.3.5 and won't let me run gems update --system (since gems is a deb package, --system is disabled) -- and I absolutely *don't* have time to build rubygems from source several times until I get all the options and include libs right!

So, thanks, but until there's a deb package, a simple gem auto-install, or some such ... I'll just have to use another wiki system. -- Here's hoping you guys can make it easy for those of us who (having done so far too often in the past) are no longer willing or interested in doing source builds just to try out a piece of software. *sigh*

Thanks for all your work so far... it really does look great on paper... but it clearly isn't meant for me yet.
