Apple

Hey Paul, could you tell me the particulars of your environment? For example, OS version, and Platform (i.e. Intel or PowerPC). The default shell in Mac OS 10.5.4 is bash. Thus, I wouldn't recommend changing anything about that because it simply works as is. OK?

I entered the commands and got this response:

which ruby
/opt/local/bin/ruby
paul-denlingers-macbook-pro:/ pdenlinger$ ls -Ale@/opt/local/bin/ruby

ls: illegal option -- /

usage: ls [-ABCFGHLPRSTWabcdefghiklmnopqrstuwx1] [file ...]
paul-denlingers-macbook-pro:/ pdenlinger$ ls -Ale@/opt/local/bin/ruby
ls: illegal option -- /
usage: ls [-ABCFGHLPRSTWabcdefghiklmnopqrstuwx1] [file ...]

paul-denlingers-macbook-pro:/ pdenlinger$

Am I entering the second command wrong?

TIA

Thank you.

I have checked /usr/bin; there is no installation of Ruby there; it was moved to the /opt/local directory because of the Macports installation. Ruby will have to be downloaded, compiled and installed in the right directory.

All of this is a bit beyond my current capabilities, so if you know anyone who can do this, please have them contact me.

Thanks again,

You shouldn't have to reinstall it.
To check where a particular command is located type (in Terminal):
bill-royds-computer:~ billroyds$ which ruby

/usr/bin/ruby
then check to see what it actually is

bill-royds-computer:~ billroyds$ ls -Ale@ /usr/bin/ruby

lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 76 31 Oct 2007 /usr/bin/ruby -> ../../System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/Current/usr/bin/ruby

the e and @ extensions are Apple specific to show whether there are ACLs or resource forks attached to it.

These indicate that the ruby in my /usr/bin directory i actually a symlink to /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/Current/usr/bin/ruby (the relative path is to /usr/bin/../.. which is the root directory).

See if you still have the version above and just restore the symlink
$ sudo ln -s /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/Current/usr/bin/ruby /usr/bin/ruby
