Thanks @francesco-loreti, will try to reproduce, but I don't develop on windows so might be tougher to reproduce.

Probably related to #320

pokonski commented

Can you try version 1.6.1? It should fix the problem.

Not working

I hit similar issue on my mac and linux environment. the problem is gems/public_activity-1.6.x/test/migrations/001_create_activities.rb points to test/migrations/../../lib/generators/public_activity/migration/templates/migration.rb.

Temporary Solution for me:

get source from github like gem 'public_activity', git: 'https://github.com/chaps-io/public_activity', tag: 'v1.6.2'

To Maintainers :

it seems packaged gem file on rubygems is little bit broken.

in v1.5.0 (https://rubygems.org/downloads/public_activity-1.5.0.gem)
001_create_activities.rb is a real ruby file.

in v1.6.x (ex. https://rubygems.org/downloads/public_activity-1.6.0.gem)
001_create_activities.rb points to test/migrations/../../lib/generators/public_activity/migration/templates/migration.rb. not ../../lib/generators/public_activity/migration/templates/migration.rb as https://github.com/chaps-io/public_activity/blob/v1.6.2/test/migrations/001_create_activities.rb

could you check what's happen in between v1.5.0 and v1.6.0 ?

Still happening with 1.6.3

The temporary solution kawamoto gave worked for me.

Is there any plan on fixing it for future releases?

A year later still happening (1.6.4 now).
Can this issue be re-opened ?
