All my ruby scripts suddenly died

Using Google 7.1 on a winxp sp3 machine (32-bit).
I think I am being silly about this, but I just can't figure out what happened.
Anyone, please help with some suggestions for troubleshooting ?

Have you recently added or deleted scripts? How about the tools folder, did you move or rename anything there?

I decided to remove all the files ending in .rb from my plugins folder to a temporary folder.

I am adding them back one by one, launching Sketchup 7 each time I add.

I have already identified some which don't work correctly.

Still checking as I update here.

Will report back if anything noteworthy comes up.

Thanks !

Identified city_gen.rb as the script which is giving my SU7.1 launch problems.

All other ruby scripts inside my Plugins folder now working again.

Is that one error message? (From SU startup?) Or several you compiled into a list?

[ibr_remote]

My Opening Post shows the list which I got all at once, and so suddenly as well, after adding all the scripts I wanted to use, which I downloaded from the internet. That is why I couldn't identify which one threw my SU7.1 launch. Also why I had to remove all scripts from the Plugins folder, then add back one by one and launch SU each time.

So now I am pretty sure that only city_gen.rb is causing the error message if I include it.

I wonder, perhaps it could be a clash with some other script I have added, but I can't tell which or why.

Further discussion of this item will continue in the city_gen thread, thanks.
