RedCloth loaderror on ruby 2.0.0 [i386-mingw32]


When I upgraded my rails 3.2.13 application (on Win XP) from ruby 1.9.3 to ruby 2.0.0, it crashed due to gem RedCloth (4.2.9 x86-mingw32).

Message: couldn't load 2.0/redcloth_scan (LoadError). In other words: /lib/2.0/redcloth_scan.so does not exist in the gem.

Is there any solution to this problem?

(Unfortunately, RedCloth is the only Ruby tool that handles Textile.)


Solution

  • You might want to stay with 1.9.3 for now, if you must use RedCloth.

    RedCloth doesn't seem to support 2.0.0 yet.
