iron_worker zip/zip (LoadError) error using iron_worker_ng gem

Question

I am receiving this error when I'm using ironworker's iron_worker gem to upload and build my worker. iron_worker upload results in

error:/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require': cannot load such file -- zip/zip (LoadError)

Answer 1

There was a recent change to the rubyzip gem that required a dependency lock on the iron_worker_ng gem.

to fix this update to the latest version by running the command.

gem update iron_worker_ng

Your gem version should be iron_worker_ng (1.0.2)

You can test this by running

iron_worker -v

It should look like iron_worker_ruby_ng-1.0.2 (iron_core_ruby-1.0.1) as of 09/12/13.
