Just trying to get simple http server running and have no clue about ruby

and here is my version of ruby on centos ruby 1.9.1p376 (2009-12-07 revision 26041) [x86_64-linux]

any help would be very appreciated

回答1:

That's known issue specific for ruby-1.9.1 and rake-1.3.5. Please look at this. What about updating ruby for 1.9.2 or 1.9.3 version?

UPDATE

On the one hand, WFKV_ constant was absent in ruby 1.9.1 version and appears in 1.9.2 version. On the other hand, this constant is defined in rack's uri/common_192.rb file. 2011-10-03 Ben Hamill fixed issue #246 'Silence the warning about redefining this constant from the standard library' through addition remove_const :WFKV_ line of code and this fix was included in rack-1.3.5 version. Therefore, if you use 1.9.1 version, you have to use rack-1.3.4.
