I ran into an error while setting up a Middleman<\/a> site on my PC. I already had Ruby<\/a> and RubyGems<\/a> installed, so I followed the instructions to install Middleman<\/a> and start a new Middleman site<\/a>:<\/p>\n

gem install middleman
\nmiddleman init project
\ncd project<\/code><\/p>\n

The next step was to start the preview web server<\/a>, which produced an error:<\/p>\n

$ bundle exec middleman server
\nDL is deprecated, please use Fiddle
\nc:\/RailsInstaller\/Ruby2.1.0\/lib\/ruby\/gems\/2.1.0\/gems\/bundler-1.7.7\/lib\/bundler\/r
\nubygems_integration.rb:256:in `block in replace_gem': middleman-cli is not part
\nof the bundle. Add it to Gemfile. (Gem::LoadError)
\n from c:\/RailsInstaller\/Ruby2.1.0\/bin\/middleman:22:in `<main>'<\/code><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I took a look at the Gemfile<\/em>:<\/p>\n

$ cat Gemfile
\n# If you do not have OpenSSL installed, change
\n# the following line to use 'http:\/\/'
\nsource 'https:\/\/rubygems.org'<\/p>\n

# For faster file watcher updates on Windows:
\ngem 'wdm', '~> 0.1.0', platforms: [:mswin, :mingw]<\/p>\n

# Windows does not come with time zone data
\ngem 'tzinfo-data', platforms: [:mswin, :mingw, :jruby]<\/p>\n

# Middleman Gems<\/code><\/p>\n

That’s it–there’s nothing listed under the Middleman Gems. I appended a line to add the missing middleman-cli<\/em> gem:<\/p>\n

$ echo 'gem \"middleman-cli\"' >> Gemfile<\/code><\/p>\n

I attempted to start the preview web server again:<\/p>\n

$ bundle exec middleman server
\nDL is deprecated, please use Fiddle
\nc:\/RailsInstaller\/Ruby2.1.0\/lib\/ruby\/gems\/2.1.0\/gems\/middleman-cli-4.1.9\/bin\/middleman:3:in `require': cannot load such file -- middleman-core\/profiling (LoadError)
\n from c:\/RailsInstaller\/Ruby2.1.0\/lib\/ruby\/gems\/2.1.0\/gems\/middleman-cli-4.1.9\/bin\/middleman:3:in `<top (required)>'
\n from c:\/RailsInstaller\/Ruby2.1.0\/bin\/middleman:23:in `load'
\n from c:\/RailsInstaller\/Ruby2.1.0\/bin\/middleman:23:in `<main>'<\/code><\/p>\n

Now it’s missing another item, middleman-core<\/em>. I decided to take a look at which Middleman gems were installed on my system:<\/p>\n

$ gem list --local | grep middleman
\nmiddleman (4.1.9)
\nmiddleman-cli (4.1.9)
\nmiddleman-core (4.1.9)<\/code><\/p>\n

I appended another line to the Gemfile<\/em> to add the missing middleman-core<\/em> gem:<\/p>\n

$ echo 'gem \"middleman-core\"' >> Gemfile<\/code><\/p>\n

The preview web server then started successfully:<\/p>\n

$ bundle exec middleman server
\nDL is deprecated, please use Fiddle

\n== The Middleman is loading

\n== Inspect your site configuration at \"http:\/\/localhost:4567\/__middleman\", \"http:\/\/192.168.200.196:4567\/__middleman\"<\/code><\/p>\n

Visiting http:\/\/localhost:4567 displayed the following:<\/p>\n

Presumably the missing gems are supposed to be included by default when setting up a new Middleman project. I’m not sure why they weren’t included in my project, but in case you are running into the same problem I hope you find this post helpful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
