Invalid Gemspec

[tanelsuurhans]

Getting this error every time the project is loaded (and all the gems):
Invalid gemspec in [/Users/tanel/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p180@project/specifications/active_reload-0.2.0.gemspec]: invalid date format in specification: "2011-07-20 00:00:00.000000000Z"

The gemspec itself looks like this at that location:

-- encoding: utf-8 --

Gem::Specification.new do |s|
s.name = %q{active_reload}
s.version = "0.2.0"

s.required_rubygems_version = Gem::Requirement.new(">= 0") if s.respond_to? :required_rubygems_version=
s.authors = ["Robert Pankowecki"]
s.date = %q{2011-07-20 00:00:00.000000000Z}
s.description = %q{Reload Rails code in development mode only when change is deteced}
s.email = ["robert.pankowecki@gmail.com"]
s.homepage = %q{https://github.com/paneq/active_reload}
s.require_paths = ["lib"]
s.rubyforge_project = %q{active_reload}
s.rubygems_version = %q{1.7.2}
s.summary = %q{Reload Rails code in development mode only when change is deteced}

if s.respond_to? :specification_version then
s.specification_version = 3

if Gem::Version.new(Gem::VERSION) >= Gem::Version.new('1.2.0') then
  s.add_development_dependency(%q<rake>, [">= 0"])
  s.add_development_dependency(%q<bbq>, [">= 0"])
else
  s.add_dependency(%q<rake>, [">= 0"])
  s.add_dependency(%q<bbq>, [">= 0"])
end

else
s.add_dependency(%q, [">= 0"])
s.add_dependency(%q, [">= 0"])
end
end

The date clearly is in the wrong format, but the gemspec does not resemble the one in your repository.
Do you use something else to generate the gemspec before releasing?

I check my local version of this file /home/rupert/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290-fastrequire/specifications/active_reload-0.2.0.gemspec and the date line looks normal:

Gem::Specification.new do |s|
  s.name = %q{active_reload}
  s.version = "0.2.0"

  s.required_rubygems_version = Gem::Requirement.new(">= 0") if s.respond_to? :required_rubygems_version=
  s.authors = ["Robert Pankowecki"]
  s.date = %q{2011-07-20}
  s.description = %q{Reload Rails code in development mode only when change is deteced}
  s.email = ["robert.pankowecki@gmail.com"]
  s.has_rdoc = nil
  s.homepage = %q{https://github.com/paneq/active_reload}
  s.require_paths = ["lib"]
  s.rubyforge_project = %q{active_reload}
  s.rubygems_version = %q{1.6.2}
  s.summary = %q{Reload Rails code in development mode only when change is deteced}

  if s.respond_to? :specification_version then
    s.specification_version = 3

    if Gem::Version.new(Gem::VERSION) >= Gem::Version.new('1.2.0') then
      s.add_development_dependency(%q<rake>, [">= 0"])
      s.add_development_dependency(%q<bbq>, [">= 0"])
    else
      s.add_dependency(%q<rake>, [">= 0"])
      s.add_dependency(%q<bbq>, [">= 0"])
    end
  else
    s.add_dependency(%q<rake>, [">= 0"])
    s.add_dependency(%q<bbq>, [">= 0"])
  end
end

Try removing and installing the gem again. Maybe that will help. So far I am not able to reproduce.

@tanelsuurhans - Any news on this issue? Did you try to reinstall?

[paneq]

I'm closing because I was not able to reproduce the bug and you did not provide further information required to any kind of investigation. I assume that it works for you fine now. Nobody else reported such problem so I think that it was some kind of single issue.

[tanelsuurhans]

Sorry for the slow response. This seems to be caused by rubygems somehow, as updating it and then reinstalling the gem seemed to fix the issue.
