Ruby on Rails: “couldn't find file 'jquery-ui'”

Question

I\'ve just done a fresh install and was able to access the default rails page at localhost:3000, but when I installed the activeadmin gem I had a problem when accessing /admin/

Answer 1

This is a known issue due to the jquery-rails dependency dropping jQuery-UI support. The workaround for the moment appears to be to force the jquery-rails gem to load using version 2.3.0:

gem 'jquery-rails', '~> 2.3.0'
