Why do RightScale API (JSON) calls fail with "undefined symbol: RSTRING PTR:"?

Table of Contents
No headers

This error is generated by newer versions of the Ruby gem json. The version that is installed by default in all RightScale images is 1.2.4.

The solution to this is to remove and install the appropriate version of the gem. This can usually be done with a simple RightRcript that runs the following commands:

gem uninstall json -v 1.4.6
gem install json --version 1.2.4
