I'm new to ruby on rails, and I wanted to install Prawn Library. But running gem install prawn fails and I get ttfunk requires ruby version 1.9.3 . So I had to add gem 'prawn', '0.12.0' to the Gemfile, and I noticed that there is no such file in our project, so I added it under:
source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'rake', '0.8.7'
gem 'rails', '2.3.5'
gem 'prawn', '0.12.0'
This is the gem list:

So you can notice that multi_json is installed as a gem. I tried uninstalling and re-installing it, I also checked its permissions, and tried to restart nginx server several times, but none of this worked. I'm not able to solve this problem, I opened the dependencies.rb file where the error points to and I found this:
def require(file, *extras) #:nodoc:
if Dependencies.load?
Dependencies.new_constants_in(Object) { super }
else
#line 58 super
end
rescue Exception => exception # errors from required file
exception.blame_file! file
raise
end
Please help me figure this out.
UPDATE: Big thanks for Mateusz Czerwiński I added gem 'multi_json', '~> 1.11', '>= 1.11.2' to my gemfile and run bundle install, and the first error is gone. but now I'm getting this error:
no such file to load -- i18n/backend/fallbacks (MissingSourceFile)
I checked the gem list and I have i18n (0.4.2) installed.I also checked if i18n/backend/fallbacks.rb file is there, and I found it under ruby/gems/1.8/gems/i18n-0.4.2/lib/i18n/backend, and I changed its permissions. But still it didn't work.
I copied the gems required by multi_json from /usr/local/lib/ruby to /multi_json/ruby. This seems to fix the gems errors, but I'm having the following error now:
Error message:
uninitialized constant FedenaPlugin::Authorization
Exception class:
NameError
I don't understand why all these errors are here, and why installing a gem caused my application to stop. And I don't understand what the last error indicate.
You have a lot of unnecessary gems, for fedena these are the gems you should have:
actionmailer (2.3.5)
actionpack (2.3.5)
activerecord (2.3.5)
activeresource (2.3.5)
activesupport (2.3.5)
Ascii85 (1.0.2)
bundler (1.10.6, 1.0.22)
daemon_controller (1.0.0)
declarative_authorization (0.5.1)
faraday (0.9.1)
fastercsv (1.5.5)
fastthread (1.0.7)
git (1.2.9.1)
hashery (2.1.1)
httpauth (0.2.1)
i18n (0.4.2)
json (1.6.5)
multi_json (1.11.2)
multipart-post (2.0.0)
mysql (2.9.1)
nokogiri (1.5.6)
oauth2 (0.6.1)
passenger (3.0.11)
rack (1.4.1, 1.0.1)
rack-cache (1.1)
rack-ssl (1.3.2)
rack-test (0.6.1)
rails (2.3.5)
rake (0.8.7)
rdoc (3.12)
ruby-progressbar (1.7.5)
ruby-rc4 (0.1.5)
rush (0.6.8)
searchlogic (2.5.19)
session (3.2.0)
tzinfo (0.3.31)
validatable (1.6.7)
vote_fu (0.0.11)
So uninstall other gems, and remove multi_json folder in addition to Gemfile and Gemfile.lock files, and try this command:
gem install prawn -v 0.6.3
Hope it works.
