---

Noting that due to recent install of webpacker there's an extra step needed, apologies if this has caused you trouble!

For now, you have to create a manifest.js file, following the steps shown here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58339607/why-does-rails-fails-to-boot-with-expected-to-find-a-manifest-file-in-app-asse#answer-58370129:~:text=Easy%20Steps%20To%20Solve%20the%20Problem%3A

The error you may see for which this is the solution is:

Gem::Ext::BuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

current directory:
/Users/jeff/.gem/ruby/2.6.6/gems/mimemagic-0.3.8/ext/mimemagic
/Users/jeff/.rubies/ruby-2.6.6/bin/ruby -rrubygems
/Users/jeff/.gem/ruby/2.6.6/gems/rake-13.0.3/exe/rake

rake aborted!
Could not find MIME type database in the following locations:
["/usr/local/share/mime/packages/freedesktop.org.xml",

The steps are:

This error comes up because you don't have a manifest.js created. You need to create one, and add in a few lines to make sure things are working. In the old version of sprockets, they made big assumptions about which assets sprockets is taking care of (i.e. bundling and concatenating). Not anymore. Now you have to tell sprockets explicitly, what files you want taken care of: and you do this in your manifest.js file.

Create the manifest.js file

$ mkdir -p app/assets/config

$ touch app/assets/config/manifest.js (not the root rails directory)

Then copy and paste the following into the manifest.js file you just created:

//= link_tree ../images
//= link_directory ../javascripts .js
//= link_directory ../stylesheets .css

If you have a precompile array in your app/config/ folder (see below for an example) e.g. app/config/production.rb then perhaps you should move them over to your manifest.js if they are not already accessed above.

config.assets.precompile = ["admin.js", "admin.css"]

Lastly, if you are using webpacker, you might want to decide what you want handled by the asset pipeline and what you want handled by webpacker. i.e. remove the link_directory to the javascripts file according to your own particular use cases.

Hi, I've had smooth sailing installing plots 2, but I'm having trouble running Phusion Passenger. I've followed the standard installation procedure outlined on the readme until step 9, when I get the following error:
https://pastebin.com/AaeeizLL

Here's the log file, which is quite large:
https://pastebin.com/1YinJL08

Thanks for your time!

[milaaraujo]

@publiclab/mentors, could you help @JonathanXu1?

[jywarren]

Hi, @JonathanXu1 -- and thanks @milaaraujo for highlighting this.

@JonathanXu1 is it possible you're running this within Windows? I see a reference to Microsoft deep in the logs. If so, perhaps take a look at #3800 and response by @gauravano:

Ok, you can try this link - https://gorails.com/setup/windows/10 for setting up Rails on your system.

I see:

Hmm, actually i see you're in Ubuntu... this is mysterious -- i use Ubuntu myself! I tried searching for the error itself:

I'm not sure what to try next, but if you get really stuck, email me at [email protected] and we can get you a Cloud9 invite to try on their cloud: https://aws.amazon.com/cloud9/?origin=c9io

Sorry you're having trouble!

[JonathanXu1]

Really sorry about not clarifying my operating system. I'm using Ubuntu on the Linux subsystem of Windows. I couldn't find a solution for my problem, so I'm going to request a Cloud9 invite. Thanks for your help!

[jywarren]

OK, that accounts for the "Microsoft" message ... thank you! I invited you,
too!

[shriyakaneriya]

Hello,
I have been trying to setup plots2, but I cannot get rails to run with the OpenSSL version I have.
I am sorry I did not come across this page earlier and I have already created an issue for the same.
Kindly refer to the issue https://github.com/publiclab/plots2/issues/3897 for details.
Sorry for the trouble, but I would really appreciate some help here.
Regards,
Shriya

[jywarren]

Have folks using cloud9 had success?

Hi @shriyakaneriya - i'll check out your other page, thanks.

[jywarren]

I see at least one person using Cloud9 has the error Could not find Bootstrap -- this means you haven't run yarn install to get your JavaScript dependencies. I'm going to make sure our docs reflect this, but please give yarn install a try, as it replaces the former bower install step.

[jywarren]

Indeed, the Cloud9 instructions had not updated the bower command to yarn, and I've just made the change. In fact I believe you need to run yarn install && yarn postinstall.

Here's the change I just made:

https://github.com/publiclab/plots2/blob/1c7f7ee6baa0331e36ff870157df663d92aacd5e/install_cloudnine.sh#L11

Sorry if this was getting people stuck!!!

[jywarren]

Also, if you are using cloudnine, once you begin, you should be able to run sh install_cloudnine.sh to begin auto-installation. I'm trying this now to be sure it works:

jywarren:~/workspace (master) $ sh install_cloudnine.sh 
Enter your cloud9 username: jywarren

Also just linked in an issue via #3914 where it looks like rake db:migrate wasn't running -- but on initial setup, you actually don't need it, just rake db:setup. Noting here for others doing this too!

[sikfeng]

The only problem I had was that I needed to modify the ruby version in Gemfile (2.5.3 for me in ArchLinux instead of 2.4.4)

rails test -d gives 2 fails for me

[jywarren]

ah, can you paste your test failures into a Gist at https://gist.github.com
so we can see? Hopefully we can help you resolve them.

[nonas-hunter]

Hi I am a GCI participant who just figured out how to set up plots2 on my local machine. It is working surprisingly well and the instructions to set it up were very clear.

Great job Public Lab!

[okonek]

Also just installed it for GCI. Also, the app has a surprisingly good code, so congratulations on your team for keeping the code quality on the high level.

[jywarren]

@thesparks -- did you run yarn install before starting it up? It's saying it can't find your CSS and JS files that come from yarn installation.

@atulbi -- we haven't run this with mongodb to my knowledge, did you set up the database.yml to use mongodb? Have you tried mariadb which is a more traditional SQL database, and our default? Or tell us a bit more, maybe you're trying something new! Thanks!

Sorry i took a bit to reply to folks here! Great work collaborating on this :-)

[jywarren]

@sikfeng which tests failed so I don't have to scan through all the reports? Thanks!!!

[atulbi]

@jywarren - I've copied database.yml from database.yml.sqlite.example as per given instructions.

[abizerlokhandwala]

@sikfeng which tests failed so I don't have to scan through all the reports? Thanks!!!

Hey @jywarren
I'm facing the same problem as @sikfeng , Ubuntu 16.04 with ruby 2.4.4
The failing tests are:
1) SearchControllerTest: https://github.com/sikfeng/plots2/blob/master/test/reports/TEST-SearchControllerTest.xml
2) SearchServiceTest: https://github.com/sikfeng/plots2/blob/master/test/reports/TEST-SearchServiceTest.xml

Thanks! :D

[JonathanXu1]

Thanks, I got plots2 working on cloud9. Is it still possible to claim this task on GCI?

[jywarren]

@JonathanXu1 -- yes, i believe so! :-)

@atulbi - that's so weird, is there any reason you can think of that mongodb would be called here? We don't use it anywhere in plots2, actually! Were you previously working on a mongodb project or something?

@sikfeng @abizerlokhandwala -- ok, here are the errors:

test_search_question_at_/search/questions/question(Minitest::Result) [/home/sikfeng/gci2018/Install plots2 on local machine/plots2/test/functional/search_controller_test.rb:35]:

Have you made any changes to the codebase? Can you just confirm what database and database.yml._____.example you're using?

[abizerlokhandwala]

@jywarren I'm using sqlite3, and database.yml.sqlite.example, as mentioned in the installation notes.
Also, haven't made any changes to the code base.

[digitaldina]

I ran into quiet a few errors, here's some links that helped me out!
Ruby version is X but your gemfile specified Y
and
this for getting the "you don't have permission" error and for the nokogiri errors I was getting. It basically refreshes everything, and will most likely solve most issues people will run into

[jywarren]

Great work @dinaelhanan !!

@abizerlokhandwala I'm sorry we haven't been able to solve your problem! I really can't crack it :-(

Thanks @dinaelhanan for documenting your process!

[vnallamhawk]

@dinaelhanan @milaaraujo @shriyakaneriya I am facing the following issue .

Hi all,

When I type 'rails console' into my terminal, whilst I am in the plots2 cloned repo, I receive this error message. I have been googling the error for a while and cannot find a solution. I am on Linux Lubuntu.

Here is the message: https://dpaste.de/VXKM

May someone please help me out with this?

[grvsachdeva]

Hi @RizwanSyed357, you have ruby and rails installed on your system? Also, could you let us know the bundler version you are using? Thanks!

[RS357]

Hi @gauravano - please see this link, which shows what version of Ruby and Bundler I have installed: https://dpaste.de/x5Yk

[grvsachdeva]

have you tried https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19061774/cannot-load-such-file-bundler-setup-loaderror @RizwanSyed357?

[madeofhuman]

Hi, guys.

I ran into a problem when setting up the app on my system. I followed the instructions up to rake db:setup where I got the error Mysql2::Error: The used table type doesn't support FULLTEXT indexes, which on further tracing, led me to db/schema.rb:58:

add_index "comments", ["comment"], name: "index_comments_on_comment", type: :fulltext if ActiveRecord::Base.connection.adapter_name == 'Mysql2'

I also got a notification to add Mysql2 to my Gemfile.

Now, the problem is that I ran bundle install with --without production mysql flag, and was using the sqlite database config file, so I should not have been getting Mysql errors.

I traced the error further and got to the file config/initializers/abstract_mysql2_adapter.rb. When I commented out the contents of this file and ran rake db:setup again, everything worked fine.

yes, i have @gauravano

[jywarren]

@efuet-flora posted in the chatroom an issue getting the system started:

Copying in my response here!

Ah, Hi @efuet-flora -- it's cool you are using Puma, we have an interest in getting that working. For now, 2 things that occur to me are a) is your database software running? and b) i typically use passenger start and not rails server -- have you tried that? It uses Passenger instead of WeBrick (or in your case instead of Puma).

ah and also your first error shows in yellow text that maybe you've used a tab character instead of two spaces in your database.yml file. That could also account for your database connection not working.

[Nirvikalpa108]

Hi guys, I am installing the repo for the first time locally. I've been through the pre-reqs, but I have a question about rvm. So, I already have rbenv installed locally. Can I have rvm too? I've googled this and it seems like this is not a good idea from what I've learnt online. Please can you confirm? What would you advise if I'm already using rbenv on other projects and therefore cannot remove it? I really appreciate your help. Thank you!

[Nirvikalpa108]

Hi guys, when I try to run a unit test in my console on Mac, I get the following error message about my Ruby version not being the same as the one specified in my Gemfile:

Aminas-MacBook-Air:plots2 aminaadewusi$ rails test test/functional/tag_test.rb:20
Ignoring nokogiri-1.10.1 because its extensions are not built. Try: gem pristine nokogiri --version 1.10.1
Your Ruby version is 2.6.1, but your Gemfile specified 2.4.4

I googled this error and indeed the error message is true, because I checked the gemfile and indeed it specifies 2.4.4 and when I run ruby -v in the console, it returns 2.6.1

However, I'm confused about which stackoverflow solution to follow here. I would really appreciate your help, thank you! ❤️

[cesswairimu]

Hi @Nirvikalpa108 you need to install ruby-2.4.4, If you are using rvm use rvm install ruby-2.4.4 after installation is done do rvm use ruby-2.4.4 then run bundle install again.
If its rbenv use rbenv install 2.4.4

[karunagoyalk]

@cesswairimu As I am working for setting up the environment in my local system..Is it working fine?

[cesswairimu]

Yeah its fine @karunagoyalk

[simonastefan]

Hello all, if anybody else runs into errors when running the tests right out of the box with the default SQLite in development (I currently get 4 failures, 10 errors) consider switching to MariaDB/MySQL. That fixed all of them for me.

Some of the errors are clear that you need MySQL:
ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: SQLite3::SQLException: no such function: SUBSTRING_INDEX:
Others are not so obvious, for example:

    Expected: 2
    Actual: 1
    test/unit/api/search_service_test.rb:56:in block in <class:SearchServiceTest>'

might be cause Node.search function has considerably different code for the two DBs.

Please let me know if all the tests are supposed to be green with SQLite.

[cesswairimu]

Thanks @simonastefan for sharing your fix. Yes, some tests are failing while using SQLite3. There is a discussion of defaulting to one DBMS in the near future for all the envs to avoid this here. Glad you were able to setup a db that works for you :tada:

I've never worked in Ruby before. I just installed on Windows, which was a bit of a challenge! I ended up installing Ubuntu on Windows and going through that. I ran into some roadblocks but Google found me solutions.

One of note, in case anyone else has the issue: When I used passenger start I got a "address already in use" error. There was nothing else running on Port 3000 and changing the port didn't fix it. I found this issue already posted https://github.com/publiclab/plots2/issues/2552 and their solution of starting the server this way worked:

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails s
rails s -b 0.0.0.0 -p 3000

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails s
rails s -b 0.0.0.0 -p 3000

I wanted to update this and say it ended up not working on Windows no matter what I tried with Windows Subsystem for Linux - it would appear to start the server but then unexpectedly quit a few minutes in. I spent today creating a dual boot system and installing Ubuntu to have a clean, happy install the way it should be.

[nicoleiocana]

@jywarren I noted that the shell script you contributed towards for easy installation is outdated now that AWS acquired Cloud9. Unfortunately, running sh install_cloud9.sh from the terminal and starting up the server doesn't work. I updated the script so that any individuals with AWS Cloud9 could flawlessly transition to installing plots2 on cloud. With your permission, I would like to:

1. Create a PR to update the install_cloud9.sh file. Then, once that is approved...
2. Edit the instructions found at Simple Installation for Cloud9

[jairus-crabb]

It was mentioned I should comment here how I was able to get plots2 up on WSL (Ubuntu 18.04). I am working on the bash terminal but I am working from files on Windows.
1) git clone repo on the Windows C: Drive, get there with cd \mnt\c (I made a folder for projects at \mnt\c\code)
2) install Ruby using rbenv (I am a newbie and ran into a lot of issues but solved them by installing dependencies)
3) I couldn't get passenger to work with Ruby from rvm unless I used this fix: https://github.com/phusion/passenger/pull/2037/commits (not yet merged so you'll have to add this change manually). But even then I ran into dependency issues, but I'm sure someone else could figure it out.
3b) Instead when I used rbenv to install Ruby, the fix above didn't work for me. However, i was able to start the rails server with "rails s" instead of "passenger start" which uses Puma by default.

I did this along with the install instructions and finally got it to work. I also have VS installed and added its Windows path to Ubunutu's (which should add Windows path variable by default), and so I'm able to simply launch VS with "code " from the bash terminal. DON'T do this if editing files within Ubuntu's directories, instead run an x server and install atom on Ubuntu and do that, you can edit windows files with Linux, but not the other way around.

[cesswairimu]

Awesome :tada: thanks for outlining the steps here @jairus-crabb

Hi! I'm still getting the same error when clicking on a Question in my local dev environment.

I've tried re-installing everything and it's still happening. Anyone else run into this?

Ok I've fixed it! I had to change this line:
https://github.com/publiclab/plots2/blob/72f175fb89d40fbd8f403333ea71c49722150cae/Gemfile#L27
to this:

': Error while installing npm dependencies (RuntimeError)
make: * [Makefile:4: install] Error 1

make install failed, exit code 2

An error occurred while installing critical-path-css-rails (4.1.0), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that gem install critical-path-css-rails -v '4.1.0' --source 'https://rubygems.org/' succeeds before
bundling.

In Gemfile:
critical-path-css-rails

The out file gives me this:

/home//.rvm/gems/ruby-2.6.6/gems/critical-path-css-rails-4.1.0/lib/npm_commands.rb:47: warning: Insecure world writable dir /mnt/c in PATH, mode 040777
Installing npm dependencies...
```

When I run gem install critical-path-css-rails -v '4.1.0' --source 'https://rubygems.org/'

I get the same error.

Am I missing a dependency or do I need to run this as sudo? I did some searching on this page and around the web but cannot seem to pinpoint what I am missing?

Any insight is appreciated.

Thank you.

I am on WSL Ubuntu 20.04 for Win 10

Hi @jperk224 ,
Do you have node installed already? you could try installing it first with sudo apt-get install nodejs then try to run bundle install after that

Hi @cesswairimu , thanks for writing back! Yes I do have node installed- do I need a particular version? Sorry if this was listed on the prerequisites page and I missed it? I thought I had walked through all of those cleanly.

I have 10.19.0

/plots2$ node -v
v10.19.0

no particular version...any version should be good...

does npm install or yarn install run successfully?

Thanks @cesswairimu ! I think that was it, I was missing npm. Apologies I thought I had it but WSL was looking to node in Windows and wasn't seeing npm. Thanks for the help!
