I have only one ruby version installed:
$ rvm list
=* ruby-2.5.7 [ x86_64 ]
# => - current
# =* - current && default
# * - default
But any time I install jekyll or bundler I got complain of an older version.
$ sudo gem install bundler
ERROR: Error installing bundler:
bundler requires Ruby version >= 2.3.0.
Unable to find the reason.
Operating system: CentOS
When using RVM as your Ruby manager you do not (and should not) use sudo. Sudo runs everything under the root account. But RVM is installed under your own user account, and therefore sudo is not needed, and will in fact circumvent RVM if used.
So, just drop the sudo part, and if RVM is installed properly, everything should start working correctly:
gem install bundler # <- no sudo needed
I bit late, but I had the same problem and couldn't find an answer documented anywhere.
The problem is that sudo uses a different version of ruby than what rvm has set. You can see this by comparing ruby -v and sudo ruby -v.
To solve this, try rvmsudo gem install bundler. This causes sudo to use the version of ruby that rvm expects.

I'm new to using Vagrant and am trying to install Gems on it (Ruby is already installed). I am following the instructions here.
I've downloaded the latest version of Gems and extracted it. I have "cd'd" into that folder and have tried to run:
ruby setup.rb
But get a Permission denied error, so I try sudo:
sudo ruby setup.rb
But this gives me the error:
sudo: ruby: command not found
Would anyone know what's going on here?
Edit - more info
I checked the version of ruby and its 2.3.0p0.
If I try to check the version of Gems is says to install Ruby 1.9.1.
I don't really understand this...
sudo doesn't preserve your $PATH environment variable, so unless ruby is installed somewhere that's in root's path, it's not going to be found.
Run which ruby to find out where ruby is installed, then sudo /path/to/ruby setup.rb
Also, more importantly, that's completely unnecessary. Those instructions are old. Rubygems has been built-in to ruby for a long time now. The site you linked even says, "If you’re on Ruby 1.9.*, then you don’t have to worry about installing Rubygems; it’s built in." If you're on 2.3.0, you don't need to install Rubygems, you have it already.
I suggest to you use RMV to install Ruby and Gem versions.

I am trying to install Jekyll in a VM for my web course and it required ruby >= 2.0.0.
I've gone through installing RVM and using this to install the desired version of ruby, but I then get the following:
vagrant#precise32:~/.rvm/bin$ bash rvm list
rvm rubies

I don't understand why it still thinks it is using version 1.8.7, as it confirms that it has installed 2.2.1.
I have done the following:
Use sudo chown to change ownership of the .gnupg folder recursively to vagrant (my system user) as defined here.
Install RVM following the instructions here.
Installed the version (2.2.1) of ruby using these instructions (https://rvm.io/rubies/installing).
Tried to install Jekyll using sudo gem install jekyll, but I get an error saying that I need ruby version 2.0 or higher.
I'm not a developer, this is an introductory web development course. Also please excuse the corrupt link, I can't post more than 2.
Update: I think I might need to do something as described here: How do I change my Ruby version using RVM?.
Also - although I installed RVM, I originally installed it using sudo apt-get which corrupted it. I uninstalled that, and ran the most recent install with curl. To use it I have to navigate to the directory and use "bash rvm list"
Add following two lines:
export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.rvm/bin" # Add RVM to PATH for scripting
[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" # Load RVM into a shell session *as a function*
to your $HOME/.profile file and restart a shell.
It seems your machine is using Its own instead by RVM.
1: rvm list # Listing install rubies will you get versions of ruby which is installed by RVM
2: rvm use < ruby-version > # for instances ruby-1.9.3-p125
3: bundle install
4: Tried to install Jekyll using sudo gem install jekyll, but I get an
error saying that I need ruby version 2.0 or higher.
For that you could try Installing Jekyll on Ubuntu 14.04
Hope this help you !!!
I get the error
Error installing jekyll:
jekyll requires Ruby version >= 2.0.0.
when I run
sudo gem install jekyll
"ruby -v" says I have ruby version 1.9.3
How do I install Jekyll? Do I need to upgrade ruby? If so, how?
Update - I installed ruby 2.0.0 with rvm but get the same error. Since trying to install with gem, could that still be trying to install with the older version of ruby? If so, how to find and change?
Try
sudo gem install jekyll -v 2.5
The default command apparently tries to install Jekyll 3, which was released on October 27th 2015. The 2.5 version still works with Ruby 1.9.3, and its quite allright for me, probably for you too.
I solved this issue the following way (assuming the ruby2.0 package is installed):
sudo rm /usr/bin/ruby
sudo rm /usr/bin/gem
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ruby2.0 /usr/bin/ruby
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gem2.0 /usr/bin/gem
Quick explanation:
/usr/bin/ruby and /usr/bin/gem are symlinks, you can check their target by entering:
ll /usr/bin/ruby
ll /usr/bin/gem
Changing the target of these links results in changing your default ruby and gem execution. Switching to version 2.0 for instance, lets you install Jekyll 3.
You can give a try to:
sudo apt-get install ruby2.0 ruby2.0-dev
sudo gem2.0 install jekyll-import
I try the following on Ubuntu 14.04:
sudo apt-get install ruby2.0 ruby2.0-dev
sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev
sudo gem2.0 install jekyll
If you've already installed a later version of Ruby AND you're using rbenv, and gem gives the same error, it is because you are still using the old version of gem. There are now two executables called gem in your filesystem. Figure out which gem is the default with "which":
$ which gem
If you see something like */.rbenv/shims/gem, this is not the version of gems that you want to use. The correct version of gem will be in /.rbenv/versions/[your preferred version, i.e. 2.0.0]. You can run that version of gem by including the full path to the executable:
$ sudo /path/to/correct/gem install jekyll
I just cloned my Rails app onto my new computer. Ruby 2.0.0 seemed to install with no issue, but when I run sudo bundle install inside my app, I get an error telling me I have Ruby 1.9.3 installed:
$ sudo bundle install
Your Ruby version is 1.9.3, but your Gemfile specified 2.0.0
and bundle install returns this:
$ bundle install
/home/user/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.0.0-p643/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:54:in `require': cannot load such file -- bundler (LoadError)
from /home/user/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.0.0-p643/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:54:in `require'
from /usr/bin/bundle:7:in `<main>'
I don't understand why I would have 1.9.3 installed. I used the command rvm install 2.0.0 to install Ruby.
Also, ruby -v returns:
ruby 2.0.0p643 (2015-02-25 revision 49749) [x86_64-linux]
What's going on?
Output of rvm list
$ rvm list
rvm rubies
=* ruby-2.0.0-p643 [ x86_64 ]
# => - current
# =* - current && default
# * - default
Because you're using rvm, you shouldn't ever need to use sudo on any of your commands. Using sudo is likely running the globally installed 1.9.3 version.
If you just installed Ruby 2.0.0 and haven't done anything else, then you most likely need to install bundler first before using it:
gem install bundler
Once you've done that, bundle install (without sudo) should work fine.
Trying to install the new Rails 3 release on OSX 10.6.
Have never touched Ruby or Rails on this machine since purchased.
I was able to get rvm and get Ruby 1.9.2. installed. From there, I am stuck.
I tried:
rvmsudo gem install rails -v 3.0.0
sudo gem install rails --pre
sudo gem install rails
sudo gem update rails
And I get the same result error each time:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno::ENOENT)
No such file or directory - /Users/kevin/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-head#rails3/cache/activesupport-3.0.0.gem
If I do gem list, it says LOCAL GEMS and doesn't list anything.
I have read a few walkthroughs but honestly none of them address this issue and its kind of pissing me off. Why is this so difficult to install? Would love to learn it if someone could help me get it running.
I was trying to follow this:
http://eddorre.com/posts/installing-rails-3-beta-4-using-rvm
and this:
http://hivelogic.com/articles/compiling-ruby-rubygems-and-rails-on-snow-leopard
Which is actually linked from the ROR guides website. Am I missing dependencies? How do I get them in?
If I do rails -v I get:
rails -v
/Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems.rb:779:in `report_activate_error': Could not find RubyGem rails (>= 0) (Gem::LoadError)
from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems.rb:214:in `activate'

Older versions of rvm had a bug that can cause your ruby versions to get crosswired because the OS can cache executable paths for the which command (particularly if you are using zsh). See this long, detailed, mind blowing post by Yehuda Katz on the subject.
What I had to do this morning:
rvm update && rvm reload # update rvm
rvm gemset delete rails3 # delete old gemset
rvm install 1.9.2
rvm use 1.9.2
rvm gemset create rails3
rvm use 1.9.2#rails3
which ruby # check to be sure the ruby interpretter is properly set to 1.9.2
hash -r # if ruby interpretter is not pointing to 1.9.2
gem install rails
which rails # check to be sure we are using rvm version of rails
Note: On newer versions of rvm, you will have to use rvm get stable instead of rvm update
You don't need to use sudo when installing gems with rvm. If you follow the directions here to get RVM installed, you should be able to just do rvm use 1.9.2; gem install rails --version 3.0.0.
You don't have to specify version 3. If you have 1.9.2-p0, it will automatically get rails 3 when you rvm gem install rails 3. note: no sudo. I think when you use sudo it makes it use the system-installed ruby. If you think you need sudo, use rvmsudo.
Things probably got messy because you were following guides based on the pre-stable release of rails, which involved many other things. If you like, you can try uninstalling rvm and re-doing everything. It really isn't all that difficult.
Remember, you need 1.9.2, 1.9.1 won't work.
curl -O http://rvm.beginrescueend.com/releases/rvm-install-head
sh rvm-install-head
rvm install 1.9.2-p0
# also remember to edit your bash profile and add the required lines
# verify that 1.9.2-p0 shows up there
rvm list
# makes it so you're using it, and sets it as the default
rvm use 1.9.2-p0 --default
# verify this happened. should have => 1.9.2-p0 in the list
rvm list
# verify the version
ruby --version
# should automatically get 3.0
# `rvm gem install` installs it for every single installed ruby version
# in my experience
gem install rails
When you did rvm gem install, I think it installs it for every ruby version you have registered with rvm (at least it happened in my experience), so my assumption is that it was trying to force install rails 3 for an older ruby installation, which was missing the required gems.
Take it easy, not many commands are required. If you find yourself having to do 'hacks' or workarounds, then you're doing it wrong. Thankfully it's easy to start over. To remove rvm, just do rm -rfv ~/.rvm and also rm ~/.rvmrc if it's there.
Let me know how it goes.
working through this myself as new user mac osx blah blah
seems like a cache directory doesn't get made, try
mkdir $HOME/.rvm/gems/cache
so far so good after that...
I am running into the same problem (tried uninstalling and installing like Blaenk suggested)

After doing "rvm update && rvm reload" rvm got updated to 1.04 (instead of 1.02 which I got via the recommended GIT install yesterday!?) it worked nicely.
The solution worked for me, with a few tweeks:
Instead of using rvm update, I had to use rvm rubygems. Then, after doing all the work from post 2, I had to execute bundle install and I entered rvm use 1.9.2#rails3 to my .rvmrc file. Everything now works like a charm, even when starting a new shell or terminal session. The full list of commands I used is:
>> NEW >> rvm rubygems
rvm reload # update rvm
rvm gemset delete rails3 # delete old gemset
rvm install 1.9.2
rvm use 1.9.2
rvm gemset create rails3
rvm use 1.9.2#rails3
which ruby # check to be sure the ruby interpretter is properly set to 1.9.2
>> DID NOT NEED >> hash -r # if ruby interpretter is not pointing to 1.9.2
gem install rails
which rails # check to be sure we are using rvm version of rails
>> NEW >> bundle install
>> NEW >> cat 'rvm use 1.9.2#rails3' > .rvmrc
Followed these instructions, and found them very useful for rvm installation. Hope they work for you.

Doing this after the rvm update and reload worked for me:
rm -rf .bundle && bundle install
