Dreamhost… you win… or lose really.

You have already activated rack 1.1.0, but your Gemfile requires rack 1.2.1. Consider using bundle exec.

So with the impending release of Rails 3 there is a little dependency that was added. Rack 1.2.1. Dreamhost is using passenger which also requires a version of Rack. The problem is that it’s 1.1.0. I’m pretty sure it’s not going to be possible to get Rails 3 running on Dreamhost without the servers being upgraded…

If you’re a Dreamhost customer please be sure to vote this suggestion up.
Get Ready for Rails 3

Please be sure to file a support ticket as well.

For me, if this isn’t fixed within the next few weeks I plan on moving to linode.com

    I moved to Linode, couldn’t be bothered to wait around for DreamHost to get things in order any longer. Let’s just say you will not regret it, it’s the best host I’ve ever had.

    Hey Man I did it works today early, I did this:
    On my local machine:

    bundle package

    On Dreamhost:

    bundle install –path vendor/bundle –local

    And it looks work perfectly, I hope I was help you …

    The issues is that if you’re running r3.rc it requires Rack 1.2.1 which causes a conflict. You might be on a server that has been updated already though.
