Problem installing RedCloth rubygem

[lfzawacki]

The Ruby on Rails app I'm going to host at Heliohost uses the RedCloth gem.

So I proceed to install it and I'm presented with the following error:

cPanel 11
Installing "RedCloth" Ruby Gem

Gem files will remain installed in /home/zawacki/ruby/gems/gems/RedCloth-4.2.2 for inspection.

What can I do about it?

Thanks.

Perhaps you need root privileges for that particular gem. I've installed it from the root console; let me know if your application is working now.

Thanks for the quick help. The gem is there and it should be working now, but I'm having a hard time making my app run.

I know this shouldn't be discussed in here so I've created a post in the Questions forum:
