Crashes on start: undefined method `require_relative' for main:Object (NoMethodError) #11

I've tried to use ferver, but got this:

/var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/ferver-1.2.0/lib/ferver.rb:1: undefined method `require_relative' for main:Object (NoMethodError)
    from /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `gem_original_require'

Hi @vkotovv Is there a reason you are using Ruby 1.8.7? I don't believe require_relative exists or behaves the same in that version of Ruby?

If you can upgrade and use a later version then that would fix it, this gem is supported on Ruby 1.9.3 and upwards - sorry I don't think that is mentioned on the README.

So, sorry Ruby 1.8.7 is not supported - it is very old and outdated now, I would upgrade unless a major problem with doing so.

I think Ruby 1.8.7 is a default for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, which I'm using. Thanks for clarification, did not know 1.9.3 is needed. It will be great if you merge that commit and mention Ruby version in Readme.

Will do, thanks for pointing this out.
