Question

Uh oh

/Users/myname/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p125/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require': cannot load such file -- classes/loginclass (LoadError)
    from /Users/myname/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p125/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require'
    from programtest.rb:1:in `<main>'

What have I done? This worked fine on 1.8.7 a few minutes ago; still works fine in TextMate which is running on 1.8.7. Do I need to change my folders somehow?

EDIT:

OK – was able to get it working with this edit:

 require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/classes/loginclass.rb'

Still don’t understand why I had to change this. I guess my load path changed somehow?

Answer 1

Do not write .rb at end of required file, also use File.join instead of slashes:

require File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'classes', 'loginclass')
