Re: [Rails-devel] error report, Rails 1.2 *nix tarball

[Stefan F. <ste...@we...>]

Thanks a lot, the bug exists and was already be reported,
see the workaround in the bug report:

- Edit rails.sh and replace 1.1.3 by 1.2
- Start Rails from command line with java -jar ./rails-1.2.jar

Maybe you can communicate the more critical bug: It is not possible to 
exchange privates into shares in both 1830 and 1889 in Rails version 1.2.

Erik already fixed that bug and I hope that a bug fix release is soon 
available.
