parasew / instiki

a basic wiki clone so pretty and easy to set up, you’ll wonder if it’s really a wiki.

Installation fails

When trying to install instiki on Mac OS Lion, following the two step process as described in http://golem.ph.utexas.edu/wiki/instiki/show/Installation, I end up with the following error message during step two (ruby bundle install --path vendor/bundle):
There was a NoMethodError while loading syntax.gemspec:
undefined method test_suite_file=' for #<Gem::Specification:0x3fe875cc6aa8 syntax-1.1.0> from /path/to/instiki/vendor/bundle/ruby/1.9.1/bundler/gems/syntax-bf39f212ed23/syntax.gemspec:19:in block in

'

Googling "test_suite_file" results in a couple of pages that mention that the method has been deprecated, e.g. this one:
1 0.8.0 2004-08-01 Deprecated "test_suite_file" for "test_files"
"test_file=x" is a shortcut for "test_files=[x]"
(http://rubygems.rubyforge.org/rubygems-update/Gem/Specification.html)

I am having the same problem, did you find a fix?

Sorry, haven't found a fix yet.

Why did you close this issue?

This issue is caused by the gem 'syntax', :git => 'http://github.com/distler/syntax.git'

Sorry, wasn't my intention to close it. It was too late last night and I hit the wrong button.

I updated the syntax.gemspec file on github. Perhaps that will fix things for you.
