Not working for me :(

[Daniel15]

Hi,
Forgive me if I've done anything wrong, I've never used Ruby before. I'm trying to run Thimblr on Windows via Cygwin. I successfully installed it and can run it, but whenever I click on a theme in the select list, I get the following error:

NoMethodError at /thimblr
undefined method `render_posts' for nil:NilClass
file: thimblr.rb location: GET (?-mix:^\/thimblr(?:\/page\/(\d+))?\/?$) line: 190

Any suggestions?

Hi Daniel, I don't run windows so this one will be a little tricky for me to test. Have you tried running this in native ruby rather than ruby compiled against Cygwin? I'll see if I can have a stab at determining where the problem is here over this week.

I'll have to try that... I can't remember exactly how my Ruby installation
is set up (I don't use it very often, I've only really used it for SASS and
LESS CSS preprocessors).
I'll try to take a look when I get some free time :)

When I do use windows I just use the http://rubyinstaller.org/ which seems to work really well, it even works for someone that hasn't used windows for 7 years :P

Good luck & let me know if I can help!

I think I did use the RubyInstaller to install Ruby, but I couldn't compile
any Gems because I didn't have a compiler installed. Installing the Cygwin
version seemed like the easiest thing to do at the time. I've got exams for
university coming up shortly so I might try to look into it once exams are
over (or before then, if I get some free time).

Otherwise I'll just fire up a Debian Linux VM and use that. I'm going to
eventually format my computer and install Linux on it :)
