I have 2 applications on Dreamhost using Rails 2.1.0, recently they installed Rails 3 on my server and broke my apps.
I found this post that explains how to freeze a rails app – http://www.softiesonrails.com/2008/1/3/freezing-your-rails-application, but when I run the command rake rails:freeze:gems back this error:

rake aborted!
can't activate rails (= 2.3.8, runtime) for [], already activated rails-3.0.3 for []

I uninstalled and installed again the rake, but still resulting in this error. What can be done to solve this problem? someone went through this already know or help me?

    All freeze:gems does is copy the gem directory to vendor/gems, you can do this by hand.

    Another way you can get this done is to locally install Rails 2.1 and get get your app running and rake rails:freeze:gems there, then upload back to the server.
