Notice that the second test is failing. So, in tex.rb, the system command fails and I do not get mp-test-01-test.tex file! Can anyone else using one-click installer for ruby on windows confirm this?
i get (standard ruby install):
ruby --version ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i386-mswin32]
Now, using ruby cygwin port
ruby --version ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i386-cygwin]
And the test works fine. I get true for both cases. I do not know what went wrong with the one-click installer. I asked on the ruby mailing list, and others with one-click installer did not have this problem. Must be due some wierd setting on my system. :(
