Torquebox URL no longer working

[tomcharlesworth97]

The URL http://repository-projectodd.forge.cloudbees.com/release/org/torquebox/torquebox-dist/... no longer functions, meaning Torquebox cannot correctly be installed.

Hello @tomcharlesworth97

Did you solved the problem of Torquebox cannot correctly be installed?
I also get the same problem, the error message are following:

You have requested:
  torquebox-server ~> 3.0.2

The bundle currently has torquebox-server locked at 3.0.2.
Try running `bundle update torquebox-server`

If you are updating multiple gems in your Gemfile at once,
try passing them all to `bundle update`
Run `bundle install` to install missing gems.

When I use type command : gem install torquebox-server, it also show the message:

ERROR:  Could not find a valid gem 'torquebox-server' (>= 0) in any repository

If you have good way, please share.
Thanks a lot.

There is no need to download torquebox from the cloudbees website, it can be found on rubygems.org, the only thing you need to do is, on a new-ish jruby:

gem install bundler:1.12.5
bundle _1.12.5_ install

this will install all dependencies, including torquebox, you only then need to put these dependencies/gems in the jruby release the project was made for (1.7.10)

Not worked for me. But thanks.

You first need to download jruby 1.7.10 and then install the specific version of bundler (1.12.5), I've been doing that for a long time now and it works.

Thank you lot.

@aru Can you provide more information on what steps you took to get it working? I'm stuck on this error and would greatly appreciate more detail

Here are some instructions I found online (japanese only, sorry, but should be easy to follow): epri-vtn-jpn.pdf

The way I did this is way more complicated because I couldn't figure out how to get the dependencies via HTTP (I don't know ruby at all):

The main problem is that you cannot get torquebox because the website is dead, so you have to download from ruby-gems via bundler. The problem is that bundler expects a really old version of ruby that's incompatible with TLS and cannot connect to rubygems. So, we need to figure out a way to download the old dependencies with a new version of ruby, and then use the actual old version of ruby to run things.

In Ubuntu I do this to install rvm, which will be helpful to switch between ruby versions:

sudo apt-get install software-properties-common sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:rael-gc/rvm sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install rvm sudo usermod -a -G rvm $USER
you can look these up because you shouldn't trust me to run sudo commands.

Now I get ruby-install to get legacy versions of jruby:

wget -O ruby-install-0.8.3.tar.gz https://github.com/postmodern/ruby-install/archive/v0.8.3.tar.gz tar -xzvf ruby-install-0.8.3.tar.gz cd ruby-install-0.8.3/ sudo make install
And then I ruby-install the very old jruby we need to run the project:

ruby-install --rubies-dir /your/path/rvm/rubies/ jruby-1.7.10

And then also install the 'newest-oldest' version of jruby that will allow us to establish a connection to ruby-gems (you can potentially skip this step by forcing ruby-gems to serve you via HTTP but I never got that to work properly), I am also installing the expected version of bundler in here:

rvm install jruby-9.2.9.0 rvm use jruby-9.2.9.0 gem install bundler:1.12.5

You will need to modify the Gemfile.lock a little bit since it doesn't properly reflect all the dependencies, make sure these are stated:

gem 'rake', '= 10.1.0' gem 'json-schema', '= 2.6.2' gem 'bourbon', '= 3.1.8' gem 'bootstrap-sass', '= 3.1.1.0' gem 'capybara', '= 2.4.4' gem 'factory_girl_rails', '= 4.5.0' gem 'database_cleaner', '= 1.4.0' gem 'spork-testunit', '0.0.8' gem 'test-unit', '= 2.5.5' gem 'gem-licenses', '= 0.1.2' gem 'time_difference', '= 0.4.2'

then you can go into the project folder and do:

bundle _1.12.5_ install

then you can just copy the gems over:

rvm gemset copy 9.2.9.0@oadr 1.7.10@oadr

and that should do it :)
