IN TextMate I can't create partials with Rails tmbundle

Question

/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/ui.rb:355:in `to_plist': An object in the argument tree could not be converted (ArgumentError)
from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/ui.rb:355:in `request_string_core'
from /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/ui.rb:193:in `request_string'
from /Users/pma/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/Ruby on Rails.tmbundle/Support/bin/create_partial_from_selection.rb:23:in `<main>'

I installed the RoR bundle from: https://github.com/drnic/ruby-on-rails-tmbundle.git

Using rvm.

Are you using Ruby 1.9? The osx-plist.bundle in Textmate doesn't work with Ruby 1.9. To fix it, you can update it as described by Loren Segal. I've changed them around slightly to build wherever you want and make the support directory:

$ git clone git://github.com/kballard/osx-plist.git
$ cd osx-plist/ext/plist
$ ruby extconf.rb && make
$ mkdir -p "$HOME/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/osx"
$ cp plist.bundle "$_"

by the way, this is not necessary with ruby 1.9.3. The original plist.bundle works again in 1.9.3 – Michael Johnston Aug 02 '12 at 19:22

Worked for me with "/Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/osx" as a target directory. – Yury Kaspiarovich Sep 24 '12 at 13:12
$HOME/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/osx did not work and neither $HOME/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Managed/Bundles/Bundle Support.tmbundle/Support/shared/lib/osx BUT worked for me as well with /Applications/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Support/lib/osx – woens Nov 16 '13 at 23:46

In case you are using Textmate2 and encounter the same error as above(related to plist bundle) use the same fix as mentioned in the answer above, https://stackoverflow.com/a/7029278/206814 only the target directory is not

"$HOME/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/osx"

but should be

"$HOME/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Managed/Bundles/Bundle Support.tmbundle/Support/shared/lib/osx"

Overwrite the plist.bundle in this directory, then you should stop seeing errors that happen cause you are using Ruby 1.9.
