instiki upgrade fails

I did that and now when mongrel tries to start I get...

Hey, can I get an update on this? I pay for support and I haven't heard a response on this in 2 weeks. I just tried a straight up install of instiki through install scripts and it fails with...

if I then go into the install directory and start instiki myself with

./instiki -p8443 NOTE: Gem.source_index is deprecated, use Specification. It will be removed on or after 2011-11-01. Gem.source_index called from ./config/../vendor/rails/railties/lib/rails/gem_dependency.rb:21. => Booting Mongrel => Rails 2.3.14 application starting on http://0.0.0.0:8443 ** Erubis 2.7.0 => Call with -d to detach => Ctrl-C to shutdown server

it works fine. If I add a --prefix flag I get...

./instiki --prefix NOTE: Gem.source_index is deprecated, use Specification. It will be removed on or after 2011-11-01. Gem.source_index called from ./config/../vendor/rails/railties/lib/rails/gem_dependency.rb:21. instiki: invalid option: --prefix => Booting Mongrel => Rails 2.3.14 application starting on http://0.0.0.0:2500 ** Erubis 2.7.0 => Call with -d to detach => Ctrl-C to shutdown server ^CExiting

instiki is a script that just call script/server. I assume the script installer is calling instiki itself and trying to pass a --prefix option. From what I can see --prefix is not a script/server option but a mongrel_rails option so I think there is a problem here with how we are starting instiki. I then tried running

public_html/instiki$ mongrel_rails start -e production -p 8443 -n 2 -c $PWD --prefix /instiki and it complained about activated versions of gems being wrong and suggested I use bundle exec. I tried that but they turned out to not be installed so I ran

following that I could start it successfully by doing the following... public_html/instiki$ bin/mongrel_rails start -e production -p 8443 --prefix /instiki NOTE: Gem::SourceIndex.from_installed_gems is deprecated with no replacement.

Please fix this so I don't have to do all this manually. One thing you could do immediately that would help would be to leave all the config for the install in place so once I fix it I can still use virtualmin to mange it. The install failed to start mongrel so it removed the balancer members from the apache config and did not register the script in the list of installed scripts so I can't start and stop it once I have fixed it. basically I don't think it makes sense to remove the entire configuration for the script because I can't start it after install. That just makes my life harder.

also please edit your reply to redact everything up to public_html from the path information.
