Thanks for your reply James, its 32 bit system.

I've installed through this yum install commands

yum install ruby-1.8.7.334-2.el5 ruby-devel-1.8.7.334-2.el5 ruby-ri-1.8.7.334-2.el5 ruby-rdoc-1.8.7.334-2.el5

Mani,

Is this a 32 bit or 64 bit system? What repo did you install the Ruby 1.8.7 RPM from?

Thanks,

James

ruby 1.8.7 (2011-02-18 patchlevel 334) [i386-linux]

So i found the forum saying need to have ruby ver 1.8.6 and gem 1.4.0 . tn i
had installed the ruby 1.8.6 and gem 1.4.0

then it started running nice upto chef-solr service start step. After that i
got an error chef-expander service start failed.

 i got this error []': odd number of arguments for Hash (ArgumentError).

when i searched the forum , now this error is because ruby version 1.8.7 syntax
being used in the expander.

Please help me how to resolve it .
