Gem install appears to be broken

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

When I install rubycas via gem it does not detect dependencies then after I
install the missing dependencies (picnic and it's dependencies) and I  run
the the rubycas-server command after the install it gives the following error:

/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/picnic-0.8.0/lib/picnic/cli.rb:73:in
`handle_cli_input': options[:app_file] points to
"/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/picnic-0.8.0/lib/lib/rubycas-server.rb" but
this does not appear to be a valid Camping application!} (ArgumentError)
        from
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rubycas-server-0.7.1/bin/rubycas-server:26
        from /usr/bin/rubycas-server:19:in `load'
        from /usr/bin/rubycas-server:19

1.Installed via ruby gem
2.Which installs rubycas but without the dependancies
3.Installed picnic via gem not detected by the rubycas install
4.ran ~$ sudo rubycas-server 

I have also tried some obvious things like uninstall everything and
pre-install picnic and then install rubycas etc ... but I get the same "not
a camping application" error.

What version of RubyCAS-Server are you using? How is it installed (rubygem,
manual install)? How are you running it (webrick, mongrel, passenger,
etc.)?

version 0.7.1
Installed via rubygem.
Run from commandline ie ~$ sudo rubycas-server 

If relevant, please paste your RubyCAS-Server config.yml file here.

config.yml not relevant

Please provide any additional information below.

Gem is v 1.3
Ruby is 1.8.6 111
Picnic when installed is 0.8

I have been able to replicate the problem on windows and linux with the
same basic setup here's  run through

justin@swellspring:~$ sudo gem install rubycas-server

I'm getting the exact same problem about an invalid Camping application.

Hi,

I've already got the same problems, try to use the 0.7.0 version of Picnic.

Thanks Arnaud - that worked!

Yeah RubyCAS-Server 0.7.1 and Picnic 0.8.0 won't work. You'll need Picnic 0.7.0.

Alternatively, you could try installing the latest RubyCAS-Server build (0.8.0).
0.8.0 has a lot of new features and works with the newer Picnic version:

gem sources -a http://gems.github.com
sudo gem install gunark-rubycas-server

RubyCAS-Server 0.7.1.1 has been posted to RubyForge with a hard requirement for
Picnic 0.7.0. This should fix things for now until RubyCAS-Server 0.8.0 is 
released.

Hi
I do have the same problem (ruby 1.8.6 p114, gem 1.3.1, rails 2.2.2):
After following the quickstart guide: no installation of dependencies
After installing picnic 0.8.0
After uninstalling picnic 0.8.0 and installing 0.7.0
After uninstalling picnic and rubycas-server and reinstalling picnic 0.7.0 and 
rubycas-server 0.7.1.1

May i try rubycas-server 0.8 ?

thx, ju

Please use the dev version of the gem for now:

  gem sources -a http://gems.github.com
  sudo gem install gunark-rubycas-server
