Hello,

just uploaded a new version that fixed some bugs find by people here on the forum (thanks granin). The solution right now is not as nice and elegant as before but works and I guess that's more important. :)

I also embedded some of the iUI-background images directly in the stylesheet wich makes the output a bit nicer.

@MacSparky: the commands starting with "sudo" are supposed to ask for your password. sudo = SuperUser DO since you have to have access to system files to install the gems and developer tools.

@bernietheone: Thanks!

Yes.

Sent. As I said in that message, it does seem to be something about my DB, as the script ran fine when I dumped my DB and just loaded the "sample" info OF starts with.

Thanks again,

Well I'm trying to get the script to work and I'm pulling an error with this section of code in OFfline.rb:

li.task :style => 'display: none;' do |l|

(it's line 36 in the script)
I ran it through Komodo and it's showing a syntax error and the next line gives me an error of "useless use of | in void context" (again Komodo is reporting this).
The ruby gems installed fine. I'm assuming the OFfline folder doesn't need to be in a particular location (I just got the new updates of OmniFocus tonight).
I'm running 10.4.11 and OmniFocus 46.0.94800.

Thanks....

If you're running Tiger and haven't upgraded your local copy of Ruby there might be a problem with this style. What version of Ruby are you running? Just type this into Terminal.app:

ruby -v

Can you try and change the line causing the error to

li.task(:style => 'display: none;') do |l|

and let me know if it works?

Well I did a port install ruby to get me up to date (I also updated rubygems just in case). So here's what I'm running now:

ruby 1.8.6 (2007-03-13 patchlevel 0) [i686-darwin8.10.1]

I made the change in the line and that seemed to make Komodo's error checking happy.
However now the error I'm getting is:

OFfline.rb:17:in 'require': No such file to load -- rubygems
(LoadError)

Which I suspect means it doesn't see my rubygems install?

Did you symlink /usr/bin/ruby to the new, updated version (in /opt/local if you installed via mac ports)?

try this:
which version?
/usr/bin/ruby -v
/opt/local/bin/ruby -v

If the version living in /usr isn't the newest but the version built into Tiger (1.8.2 I believe) you should be able to fix this by linking the version in /usr/bin to the mac ports version:

sudo mv /usr/bin/ruby /usr/bin/ruby~
sudo ln -nfs /opt/local/bin/ruby /usr/bin/ruby

This should fix Rubygems as well if you installed them via Mac Ports.

You can try to run the from the ruby living in /opt:
/opt/local/bin/ruby ~/Desktop/OFfline/OFfline.rb

(change to match your real path of course). Does it work?

Please backup everything before etc so nothing is damaged.

Well I checked the version of Ruby again and you were right, it moved. So I linked it like you said and ran the command line version you gave and got this output:

I may have ruined my ruby installation. In terminal I ran the command:

Ruby -v

and it returned a version number. But it still would not install the applescript Gem.

Then, as suggested above I ran the commands:

sudo mv /usr/bin/ruby /usr/bin/ruby~
sudo ln -nfs /opt/local/bin/ruby /usr/bin/ruby

Now when I run the version command I get:

ruby: command not found.

I'm a complete novice at this kind of hacking. Can anyone please help restore my ruby install? I already have the developer tools installed.

Thank you in advance for your help.

@Jet: as I said in the email; there's a new version uploaded that works with your db so update your script to the latest version.
