rails-install-ubuntu.sh issue about installation-scripts HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi Vitoria,

Do you still have the output of the script?

Please open a new terminal and copy the output of these commands to help me diagnose

echo $SHELL
grep rvm ~/.profile ~/.bashrc ~/.bash_profile ~/.zshrc
ls -l ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm
which rvm
which ruby
which gem
which bundle
which rails
ruby --version
rails --version

Thanks,
Arne

Hi, Arne :)

Unfortunately, I don't have the script output anymore! Here are the commands result:

I thought it could be related to gem install rails. BTW, ubuntu 13.04 version is not so stable yet... Then I found something related to it at stackoverflow. The problem was solved running:

sudo apt-get build-dep ruby rubygems rails
sudo gem install rails

Hi Vitoria,

While that works, it's not exactly recommended. The problem is you are using the Ruby that was already installed on your system, rather than the one installed by RVM (the Ruby Version Manager). Because of that you need to do "sudo gem install ....", rather than just "gem install".

RVM normally installs a separate ruby under your own home directory, so you have an isolated environment. If you mess it up it won't affect the rest of your system, and you won't need "admin/super user/sudo" access to install gems.

It seems rvm is installed, but it might not be set up correctly (this happens on Ubuntu sometimes).

Try this

type rvm | head -1

If that says "rvm is a function", then all is good, and you should be able to see the installed rubies with rvm list. To select a specific one and set it as the future default use rvm use 1.9.3 --default. If there are no rubies in the list, do rvm install 1.9.3 first.

If it says "rvm is /home/vitoria/.rvm/bin/rvm" then all is not good, it means rvm is installed but not loaded correctly.

echo ". ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm" >> .profile

Then close your terminal, open it again, and try again type rvm | head -1. It should now (hopefully say) rvm is a function, and you can continue with the instructions above :)

Hope that helps. Sorry for the long explanation, I know you just want to get it working! I just want to make sure all is good so you don't run into trouble later on.
