Problem with Vim's Ruby plugin

Question

I have just installed Vim and when ever I go to open in ruby file I get these errors:

Error detected while processing C:\\Program files (x86)\\Vim\\vimfiles\\ftp         


        

Answer 1

Updating to the latest release of Ruby 1.9.2 (1.9.2p180 (2011-02-18) at the time of posting) fixed this for me.

I was running 1.9.2p132 or so when I had the problem, which seems to have been patched around Dec 2010. You can check your current version by running ruby -v.
