I'm getting this error message when I try to do a pod install on Mac on a Turbo Module in React Native. I believe it's because of my version of Xcode installed.

Your Ruby version is 3.1.2, but your Gemfile specified 2.6.8
When I run ruby -v it returns 2.6.8.
> ruby -v
ruby 2.6.8p205 (2021-07-07 revision 67951) [universal.arm64e-darwin21]
I'm not sure what to do to fix this or where it's finding 3.1.2.
2.6.8 is the builtin ruby in macOS Monterey, which can be found at /usr/bin/ruby. If bundle is finding 3.1.2 then you have another version of ruby installed (possibly via homebrew?). You can see all versions of ruby on your current PATH using the command which -a. The order of results is the order in which they are found on the PATH, as you can confirm by typing echo $PATH. Execution is on a first-come-first-served basis. On my machine the which command produces:
% which -a ruby
/opt/homebrew/opt/ruby/bin/ruby
/usr/bin/ruby
showing that I have a homebrew copy of ruby first on my PATH, followed by the macOS copy.
Similarly, you can check which installation of bundle is being used:
% which -a bundle
/opt/homebrew/opt/ruby/bin/bundle
/opt/homebrew/lib/ruby/gems/3.1.0/bin/bundle
/usr/bin/bundle
You can override the PATH ordering by editing .zshrc (long-term change); by explicitly setting it to a new set of path values in the current terminal (one-time change for the active terminal window); or by typing the fully qualified path name of the version of the command you wish to run (ex: /usr/bin/bundle ... to use the system version).
I am using overcommit gem (https://github.com/brigade/overcommit) in my project, when I use Github Desktop for osx I get these errors:
This repository contains hooks installed by Overcommit, but the
overcommit gem is not installed. Install it with gem install
overcommit. (1)
The gem is installed, it works in terminal. I guess it's because I use rvm and Github Desktop doesn't know about rvm. Anybody knows how to fix this?
Ok finally got it to work!
Combined the answer from #michelegera with comment from #rewritten
Step 1:
sudo su -
gem install bundler
gem install overcommit
gem install rubocop
Step 2: added command: ['bundle', 'exec', 'rubocop'] to .overcommit.yml
Thanks for the help!
Most likely it's this line where the error occurs. As you can see the main issue is that it's not able to require 'overcommit'. I don't know the GitHub desktop client so well (maybe there is a way to configure it inside of it), but one thing you could do is adding the absolute path where rvm stores your gems to the "require path" in the hook file. This could look like:
$: << "/home/user/.rvm/path/to/gems/dir"
The disadvantage of this is that you would have your absolute path in the hook file and it most likely won't work for others. You might also want to consider installing the gem globally for the the ruby interpreter that executes the script (see Shebang line in the hook file).
You are right, Github Desktop (or any other GUI) isn’t running in your terminal environment, so it knows nothing about your specific RVM installation.
A simple solution is to install overcommit and any other gems required by your hooks into your system Ruby:
sudo su -
gem install bundler
gem install overcommit
gem install rubocop
...
If you installed Git via Homebrew or other means, you might have to change the Git binary used by your GUI.
For example, in Tower, I selected Homebrew’s version rather than the System’s.
(Update: Problem caused by zsh, see accepted answer)
Long ago, I followed this great guide to using Rbenv with bundler https://gist.github.com/1384279 and all was well in Ruby Land. (I installed it correctly)
Bundler gem is installed globally for the current ruby version. All gems for each project are bundle installed from their respective gemfiles.
I am attempting to install Zeus globally (like how bundler is installed globally) rather than adding it to the gemfile of each project.
joe#computer:~/some_project
> rbenv versions
1.9.3-p194
* 1.9.3-p327-perf (set by /Users/joe/some_project/.rbenv-version)
joe#computer:~/.rbenv/versions/1.9.3-p327-perf/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems
> ls -a
. method_source-0.7.1 zeus-0.13.1
.. rake-0.9.2.2
bundler-1.2.0.rc.2 rdoc-3.9.4
I have succeeded, as you can see zeus is installed globally along with bundler... however:
joe#computer:~/some_project
> rbenv rehash
joe#computer:~/some_project
> zeus init
Users/joe/.rbenv/versions/1.9.3-p327-perf/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/bundler-1.2.0.rc.2/lib/bundler/rubygems_integration.rb:147:in `block in replace_gem': zeus is not part of the bundle. Add it to Gemfile. (Gem::LoadError)
from /Users/joe/.rbenv/versions/1.9.3-p327-perf/bin/zeus:22:in `<main>'
As far as I can discern, zeus is being sought as if it is bundle installed, but its not bundle installed its globally installed.
How do I get the shell to look at the global gems before the bundled gems?
If I got it right and you have the same problem with me and you are also running zsh, then this problem is that oh-my-zsh automatically wraps some commands using bundler if you have the bundler plugin installed.
See: https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/pull/1507
https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/pull/1138
https://github.com/heroku/heroku/issues/173
EDIT: This has been fixed in oh-my-zsh
If you do have this problem with oh-my-zsh and for whatever reason you haven't updated, you could just prepend zeus with a backslash, for example:
% \zeus start
% \zeus g model Post title content:text
% \zeus rake db:migrate
What the backslash does is runs the command overriding any aliases. See this section on Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alias_(command)#Overriding_aliases
I am on a VM (Lucid 64b) with a system Ruby version of 1.9.3p0.
I have a Ruby script that creates a .deb file -- The script needs to use Ruby 1.8.7 which I have installed in /foo/ruby/1.8.7.
There is an existing Gemfile to be used with Bundler
I can't use RVM and I can't install gems at the system level.
My .bashrc includes (and has been sourced)
export PATH=$PATH:/foo/ruby/1.8.7/bin
but ruby -v still gives me
ruby 1.9.3p0 (2011-10-30) [x86_64-linux]
Questions
How can I change the Ruby version for my user to use Ruby 1.8.7?
I've run: bundle install --path vendor/bundle
So in that directory (actually ./vendor/bundle/ruby/1.8/cache/gems) are all the gems I need but, when I run the Ruby script it doesn't find the required gems. I run the script like so /foo/ruby/1.8.7 script_to_gen_deb_file.rb
How can I get ruby to see/use the bundled gems?
Update
I was able to solve it. I needed to use
/foo/ruby1.8.7/bundle exec /foo/ruby1.8.7/ruby script_to_gen_deb_file.rb
I had tried this before, but I got an unrelated error and believed there was an environment problem.
Change your path so the special ruby gets precedence?
export PATH=/foo/ruby/1.8.7/bin:$PATH
I am trying to get Jekyll running but I have no experience with Ruby.
As far as I can tell the installation of Jekyll has succeeded.
However:
$ jekyll
Gives an error:
-bash: jekyll: command not found

And I found the following paths leading to "something" Jekyll:
~.gem/ruby/1.8/gems/jekyll-0.11.0/lib/jekyll.rb
~.gem/ruby/1.8/gems/bin/jekyll (exec file)
If you are using MacOS, from the Troubleshooting guide:
Jekyll & Mac OS X 10.11Permalink
With the introduction of System Integrity Protection, several directories that were previously writable are now considered system locations and are no longer available. Given these changes, there are a couple of simple ways to get up and running. One option is to change the location where the gem will be installed (again, using sudo only if necessary):
$ gem install -n /usr/local/bin jekyll
For others coming here with the following set up:
OS X + brewed install of ruby + (possibly) zsh
I figured the problem is that after installing jekyll as per their instructions, gem installs the jekyll gem in the brew cellar, not where the OS usually expects it (somehwere in a gem directory for ruby).
So, all that was needed here was to find out where the brew install of ruby installs gems, locate the jekyll binary, and create a symbolic link to it in /usr/bin.
Here is are the steps I took to fix it:
Type gem env and look for GEM PATHS. For me it was:
/usr/local/Cellar/ruby/1.9.3-p194/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1.
Make sure you can see the jekyll binary in the directory from 1 above and copy its path (if you can't, search any other paths listed in GEM PATHS for it). For me it was:
/usr/local/Cellar/ruby/1.9.3-p194/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/jekyll-1.4.3/bin/jekyll
Use the path from step 2 above to create a symlink to /usr/bin/jekyll. I did it by typing this (you might need sudo to create the symlink):
cd /usr/bin && ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/ruby/1.9.3-p194/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/jekyll-1.4.3/bin/jekyll jekyll
Now all should be merry if you type jekyll.
The easiest method of doing this is to use RVM. It manages Ruby and all its gems for you and it's easy to use. See this link for using it.
If you did not want to use that you will need to modify your PATH variables so it can find your gems. I have found this to be tedious and reverted to RVM, but here are the general steps.
You will need to find out where your gems are getting installed. If you did gem install ... the gems will be in ~/.gem/ruby/1.8/gems/bin, if you used sudo gem install ... the gems will be somewhere in /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/Resources
You have to add this path to your PATH variable. Easiest way to do this is by running :
echo 'PATH=$PATH:above/path/to/gems' >> ~/.bash_profile
If you are using RBENV instead of RVM you simply need to run rehash in the command line after installing jekyll:
rbenv rehash
I installed my ruby2.6.0 and gem via brew on MacOS 10.14.
For me, add the following line to my ~/.zshrc solved this issue.
export PATH=/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.6.0/bin:$PATH
I found jekyll executable file with command locate jekyll.
Maybe a little late, but...
I had some trouble to install Jekyll on Ubuntu and tried everything that people answered in this thread - unfortunately nothing worked.
Then, I watched a video on Jekyll's site and after installing the whole ruby package again, sudo gem install jekyll worked.
Try it before anything else:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ruby-full
sudo gem install jekyll
jekyll -v
It seems pretty simple, but it works on Ubuntu.
One solution would be editing your ~/.bashrc file and add this line:
PATH=$PATH:~/.gem/ruby/1.8/gems/bin
This will add ~/.gem/ruby/1.8/gems/bin in Bash's lookup path.
Reopen the terminal and it should work. Or you can use the following command:
. ~/.bashrc
Following steps solved my problem
gem uninstall jekyll
sudo gem install jekyll
Open ~/.bash_profile and add this code in the last line,
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/jekyll-2.5.2/bin
Save and close the .bash_profile
Close and reopen the mac terminal, try running jekyll now, it should work
For me, I followed this installation guide instead of their main page's installation instruction. It worked after I changed the bash_profile file and restarted Terminal.
Jekyll is a ruby gem : Ruby gems in linux, for example, are in /var/lib/gems/1.8, as can be seen in the "ruby env" output.
Thus, you need to add the executables in this directory to your path.
In general, if a ruby gem is "not found" by your OS, it simply indicates that either
1) You don't have the gem installed or
2) You don't have the gem installed in a directory that is on your path.
I have found that there have been a few issues with installing ruby and ruby gems on linux (I have found that it can be tricky on Ubuntu v10, and have confirmed this with the Ruby folks on IRC). Thus, tools like RVM or rbenv might be the best approach to setting up a stable, maintainable ruby environment.
Easier than creating a symlink just install it correctly.
If you got permission errors like a lot of people are getting when trying to use
gem install jekyll
instead use
sudo gem install jekyll
#jayunit100,
I'm running into the same issue with a Jekyll blog. I've installed the gem via RVM in a 'Blog directory and the _config.yml file says that it should generate into Blog/_site. Is it as simple as adding Blog to the PATH or is there something else I'm missing?
Update: My bad, I didn't really have the gem installed. Lesson learned: rvm requirements and brew doctor are there for a reason - before you install stuff USE THEM
In my case I had to run bundle install --force
Then bundle exec jekyll serve works, but jekyll serve still doesn't. It seems I'll have to go with the former from now on…
When you use the --user-install option, RubyGems will install the gems to a directory inside your home directory, something like ~/.gem/ruby/1.9.1. The commands provided by the gems you installed will end up in ~/.gem/ruby/1.9.1/bin. For the programs installed there to be available for you, you need to add ~/.gem/ruby/1.9.1/bin to your PATH environment variable.
For example, if you use bash you can add that directory to your PATH by adding code like this to your ~/.bashrc file:
if which ruby >/dev/null && which gem >/dev/null; then
PATH="$(ruby -r rubygems -e 'puts Gem.user_dir')/bin:$PATH"
fi
https://guides.rubygems.org/faqs/#user-install
I put it in the .bash_profile (Mac OS X).

Here's an updated answer for 2020 (soon 2021). To install any Ruby gem, whether it's Jekyll, Bundler, Rails, etc., you need a proper Ruby development environment on a Mac. There are various ways to install Ruby on a Mac, as I have written about in great detail in my definitive guide to installing Ruby gems on a Mac. The only one I recommend is to use a Ruby manager because it's the most flexible and sets you up for success for the long term. My preferred one is chruby because it's the lightest and easiest to use. As part of installing Ruby, you also need to properly configure your shell startup file (typically ~/.zshrc or ~/.bash_profile) so that it knows where to find the gems you install. Otherwise, you'll get the "command not found" error, which I've also written about.
Since there are several steps involved in setting up a working Ruby development environment on a Mac, I wrote some scripts to automate the whole process and make things easier and faster for people. You can read more about the scripts in my guide mentioned above.
I had this problem for a very stupid reason, which is that I was working on Linux and had installed both flatpak and .deb versions of Visual Studio Code. I was confused because I could successfully run bundle exec jekyll serve in the terminal application, but not from the integrated terminal in Visual Studio Code.
Well, it turns out the integrated terminal loaded my PATH correctly in the .deb version but not the flatpak one. So... if you, like me, have foolishly installed multiple versions of Visual Studio Code, check which one you are using.
This is what worked for me. I'm not developing in ruby, and don't have a lot of tools that I use it for, so I don't need RVM. I also don't need to install jekyll as root. I just want it to run.
(This answer is just a more descriptive version of answers by Santa Zhang, jayunit100, and a few others.)
1. Find Local Gem Path
> gem env
Assuming this runs, it will list a bunch of useful information. You are looking for GEM PATHS. If there are two, then you want the one that is found in your home directory. Mine was something like /home/<user>/.local/share/gem/ruby/3.0.0
If it doesn't run, install the ruby gem program and try again.
2. Find Gem Binaries Path
Look in that directory until you find the location where the jekyll executable is actually installed. I found it in /home/<user>/.local/share/gem/ruby/3.0.0/bin/jekyll. But what I need is the directory path, not the file, so: /home/<user>/.local/share/gem/ruby/3.0.0/bin/.
3. Add That to PATH
Figure out how to add a directory to your PATH environment variable. Instructions for that are too extensive to provide here, as it depends on your operating system and preferred shell, and the versions of the same. Search for that information elsewhere on Stackoverflow.
4. Restart Your Session
Close your terminal and open a new one. Make sure the directory was added to your path. Depending on how you set your PATH variable, you might need to log out of your session and log in again.
