vclog-1.9.1/lib/vclog/report.rb:124:in `read': can't convert nil into String (TypeError)

Ruby 1.8.7-352... just installed the gem into my gemset in a normal git project. I'd dig into it, but can't right now, but at least this will remind me...

have the same problem here installed 1. time the vclog tool under ubuntu 11.10 no other gems yet with gem install vclog.

Hope that gets fixed soon, seems like the only really good tool that goes further a quick perl 1 or 5 liner to get a changelog.* LOCAL GEMS *

ansi (1.4.2) blankslate (2.1.2.4) confection (0.1.0) facets (2.9.3) json (1.6.5) rdoc (3.12) vclog (1.9.1) xml-simple (1.1.1)

k for me it runs when I manually installed ruby/ruby-gems 1.9.1 and install the gem over that environment.

For some reason it's not finding the template to generate the output. I'm not sure I've fixed it, but I adjusted the code so that if it does happen again it will output an error that should make it clear what's amiss. I should have the new release out by the end of today.

Thanks for reporting. I'll have a look at this soon. -- Looks like this is going to be a debugging week for me. I have a few other projects to do the same for. So, assuming nothing out of the ordinary arises, expect a new release before the end of the week.

cool thx ;)
