HELP!! I need to bundle a gem otherwise a published client’s site will stay dead
MacBook-Pros-MacBook-Pro:pn
macbookpro$ sudo ruby script/generate sanitize
Missing the Rails 2.3.5 gem. Please `gem install -v=2.3.5 rails`, update your RAILS_GEM_VERSION setting in config/environment.rb for the Rails version you do have installed, or comment out RAILS_GEM_VERSION to use the latest version installed.
You could manually install the gem on the machine as the message tells you to, but since you’re asking how to bundle the gem, that’s probably not what you’re looking for.

To freeze/vendor all the gems required by your application (as defined in environment.rb):
If you use gems like Nokogiri that contains code which needs to be compiled for the environment it’s running on, you have to a little more. After vendoring it, run
and that should do it for you. Note, this last step needs to be run on the machine where the application needs to be run – in this case you can’t just rely on doing it locally and committing your changes like you can with pure Ruby gems.
