When trying to use the acts_as_ferret plugin in a search page by using the find_by_contents method then the following error appears:

It seems that the API of the plugin has changed, and the

After a recent upgrade to a newer rails version the gem package manager seems to be broken. Everytime you try to use gem install gem_name, you get the following error:

ERROR: While executing gem ... (ArgumentError)

As suggested here, you need to do:
gem install rubygems-update update_rubygems
