I came across many posts of similar issues while looking around, but non of them really solved the problem. The fix was making sure that you specify the version of rails new
.
prior to making sure that I specified which version of rails . running the command bundle exec rails g locomotive:install
was giving me all kind of error messages .
$bundle exec rails g locomotive:install
Usage:
rails new APP_PATH [options]
Options:
-r, [--ruby=PATH] # Path to the Ruby binary of your choice
another error i was geting :
rails (= 3.2.17) ruby depends on
railties (= 3.2.17) ruby depends on
rdoc (~> 3.4) ruby
sdoc (~> 0.4.0) ruby depends on
rdoc (4.0.0)
Below is a copy of the terminal. In case someone fallin the same trap.

Problem:
No configuration could be found for a session named 'default'.
Summary:
When attempting to create the new session, Mongoid could not find a session configuration for the name: 'default'. This is necessary in order to know the host, port, and options needed to connect.
Resolution:
Double check your mongoid.yml to make sure under the sessions key that a configuration exists for 'default'. If you have set the configuration programatically, ensure that 'default' exists in the configuration hash.
create config/initializers/locomotive.rb
create config/initializers/carrierwave.rb
create config/initializers/dragonfly.rb
create config/mongoid.yml
route
mount Locomotive::Engine => '/locomotive', as: 'locomotive' # you can change the value of the path, by default set to "/locomotive"
remove public/index.html
===============================================================================
The Locomotive Engine has been correctly installed in your Rails application.
1. Edit the main config files:
- config/initializers/locomotive.rb
- config/initializers/carrierwave.rb
- config/initializers/dragonfly.rb
- config/mongoid.yml
- config/devise.yml
- config/routes.rb
2. Launch the server
> bundle exec unicorn_rails
3. Open your browser
> open localhost:8080
4. Follow the installation wizard steps
5. Enjoy !
and here is the Gemfile:
source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'locomotive_cms', '~> 2.4.1', :require => 'locomotive/engine'
gem 'rails', '3.2.17'
# Bundle edge Rails instead:
# gem 'rails', :git => 'git://github.com/rails/rails.git'
# Gems used only for assets and not required
# in production environments by default.
group :assets do
gem 'sass-rails', '~> 3.2.3'
gem 'coffee-rails', '~> 3.2.1'
gem 'compass-rails', '~> 1.1.3'
# See https://github.com/sstephenson/execjs#readme for more supported runtimes
gem 'therubyracer', :platforms => :ruby
gem 'uglifier', '>= 1.0.3'
end
# To use ActiveModel has_secure_password
# gem 'bcrypt-ruby', '~> 3.0.0'
# To use Jbuilder templates for JSON
# gem 'jbuilder'
# Use unicorn as the app server
gem 'unicorn'
# Deploy with Capistrano
# gem 'capistrano'
# To use debugger
# gem 'debugger'
must be invoked from a rails directory. So for locomotive:
then edit your config files as instructed.
The mongoid.yml generator is missing the defaults: &defaults entry. Should be:
Locomotive uses unicorn in development:
bundle exec unicorn_rails
to launch the serverGood luck!
