But you can try running the original > under strace to see what exactly Ruby is trying to do with /dev/urandom. I ran strace ruby /usr/bin/rails test_app > strace.txt, and it generated 54MB of text. It looks like the last 100 lines or so might be relevant, but I don't know how to decipher them. The "No such file or directory - /dev/urandom" occurs toward the bottom. http://boonedocks.net/code/rails-urandom-strace.txt I'd appreciate it if anyone is willing to have a look. I guess my next step might be to rerun the strace with the puts() statement in there and see what the difference is.
