require 'dalli' returns false in the console, although it is in the gemfile

Question

I added memcachier and dalli gems, and did a bundle install

then I ran the console

and I typed

require 'dalli'

and it returns false

and I can't tell why, it also does this in a staging and production environment

If you want to test those in irb

Try:

gem install dalli
gem install memcachier

And after that require them:

require 'dalli'
require 'memcachier'

If you want to test in your app console, you don't need to require them just do that:

cache = Dalli::Client.new
cache.set("foo", "bar")

How do I do that in a heroku environment? and why isn't it installing from my gemfile? – bezzoon Jun 26 '14 at 15:46
@bezzoon Try `heroku run bash` and do stuff? – manu29.d Jun 26 '14 at 16:14
@manu29.d I am actually doing that right now! and it says localhost:11211 failed (count: 1) Errno::ECONNREFUSED: Connection refused - send – bezzoon Jun 26 '14 at 16:42
