Installing RDoc documentation for remotipart-1.0.2...

$

What does it means? Is the remotipart gem correctly installed? How can I solve the problem?

Answer 1

You could try installing without the documentation to see if it installs correctly then. That would isolate the problem to the documentation.

gem install remotipart -v 1.0.2 --no-ri --no-rdoc
