I've just completed a new open source gem for the Silentale API and I'm facing a strange issue. In terminal I'm getting an error saying that it can't load the gem however it continues to start the server loading it without any issues.
no such file to load -- silentale-on-rails

Could anyone tell me what is going wrong here? The gem can be installed by the following if you want to look at the code and see what might be up;
$ sudo gem install silentale-on-rails
Many thanks!
There is a mismatch between the name of your gem (with hyphens) and the name of the library file (lib/silentale_on_rails).
You can still load it:
gem 'silentale-on-rails' # adds your gems' lib into the load path...
require 'silentale_on_rails' # ...so this now works.
The best solution is of course to have consistent names
