Been running into a problem ever since I started using rvm to manage my ruby installation. Whenever I want to require another class I’ve written, such as require 'filename', I get a require - no such file to load error when I try to run my script. If I switch back to my system ruby using rvm use system it works again, but I’m 1.8.2 as my system ruby and some features I want to use in my code are only available in 1.9.*, which I can access through rvm. How do I fix this problem?

    I’m not sure this is a problem with RVM, but a problem with Ruby 1.9 not including ‘.’ in the current path. For instance, if you are trying to require a library at ‘./lib/file.rb’, you can’t do

    require "lib/file"

    You have to do this:

    require "./lib/file"

    Have you tried that syntax for your require?
