Just wondering if anybody had the same problem with rubygems.org

I appluad the decision to consolidated everything on rubygems.org, but when the default was rubyforge – I never had any problems. Now it seems I have a problem updating gems everytime I do a new installation. I mean I can work around it, but downloading gems through the browser and then installing them manually – but that is very annoying.

The message I keep getting bad response Bad Gateway 502 (name of some gem goes here).

It never breaks on the same gem, and I have mostly problems installing Rails stack – such as mail, railties, actionmailer, etc.

Other gems like nokogori or haml – install without any problem.

If I run bundle – it also breaks with the same message or a variation thereof.

I tried obvious things – like removing rubygems.org from sources – pointing to rubyforge or rubyonrails, but keep getting the same problem. I tried it on 3 different machines – my Debian dev box, my Windows machine and my macbook, all running different subversions of Ruby 1.8.7.

Does anyone have any solution or suggestion please??? Pretty please?

P.S.:
By the way “wget” on certain gems from rubyforge.org – doesn’t work – I’m getting the same error – downloading through the browser seems to be the only option. Which leads me to believe it has nothing to do with my ruby setup, but is actually a problem on rubygems.org .

    The error has disappeared – can’t recreate it anymore – so I assume it was a problem with the rubygems server, since nothing changed on my end.
