Ruby version not update using rbenv on mac - ruby

I follow this tutorial
Install homebrew
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Install Ruby
brew install rbenv ruby-build
echo 'if which rbenv > /dev/null; then eval "$(rbenv init -)"; fi' >> ~/.bash_profile
rbenv install 2.4.0
rbenv global 2.4.0
ruby -v
but output ruby -v still
ruby 2.0.0p648 (2015-12-16 revision 53162) [universal.x86_64-darwin16]
running on mac OS Sierra 10.12

One of the steps of the installation is this one:
echo 'if which rbenv > /dev/null; then eval "$(rbenv init -)"; fi' >> ~/.bash_profile
Which writes a command into your .bash_profile.
You need to restart your Bash session (quit the Terminal and open a new one) to take it into effect.

I was having the same issues and mislav's comment here [https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv/issues/939][1] fixed it for me.

Add eval "$(rbenv init -)" line to your .bash_profile.
Works for me.

Unable to install Ruby on Ubuntu

I'm trying to install Ruby 2.6.1 on Ubuntu but keep coming across this error.
Have tried uninstalling Ubuntu, googling the problem, running in administrator mode, downloading a different version.
This is the error:
:~$ rvm install 2.6.1
Searching for binary rubies, this might take some time.

you can use a gorails website to checkout ruby on rails installation. And ruby installs version as per dependencies on your system. If it's not founding 2.6.1 it will install next supported version for ex. 2.6.7.
check this website: https://gorails.com/setup/ubuntu/21.04
Check this: How do I install Ruby 1.9.3 on Ubuntu without RVM? but SO says to avoid link answers so here is the script:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# -- this really is the only solution that worked for me on snap :/
ruby -v
if ! command -v ruby &> /dev/null
then
echo "Going to try to install ruby (ideally 3.1.2)"
# - install rebenv (following ruby-build really is needed eventhough it doesn't look like it)
mkdir -p ~/.rbenv
cd ~/.rbenv
git clone https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv.git .
# if $HOME/.rbenv/bin not in path append it, otherwise don't change it
echo $PATH | tr ':' '\n' | awk '{print " " $0}';

echo "might want to put $HOME/.rbenv/bin in your path"

eval "$(rbenv init -)"

Command Brew not Found?

I installed homebrew with ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)" on Mac but when I try to install python3 with
brew install python3
I get error of
zsh: command not found: brew
I know brew is installed but maybe I haven't done it in right location? I am in a directory of a folder in my desktop
Output of echo $PATH | tr ':' '\n'
/usr/local/bin
/usr/local/bin
/usr/bin
/bin
/usr/sbin
/sbin
Thanks for the help in advance
echo 'eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> /Users/neerajvishwa/.zprofile
type this in terminal - it worked for me
If using Macbook M1 chip run this after installation done
eval $(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)
I use the MacBook Air M1 and I have the same issue, where I need to run eval $(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv) every time I open the terminal to use brew.
I reran the 2 commands we are supposed to run after installing homebrew. (You need to replace [username] by your Mac user name)
echo 'eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> /Users/[username]/.zprofile
eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"
I even completely rebooted my Mac to make sure the fix was permanent.

Why do I get: 'ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)' when trying bundle install?

I am trying to run 'gem install bundler' on a new macbook pro.
I get :
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)
You don't have write permissions for the /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.3.0 directory.
I have tried using RVM
I have tried using RBENV

eval "$(rbenv init -)"
export PATH="/usr/local/sbin:$PATH"
export PATH="/Users/georgeclark/.gem/ruby/2.3.7/bin:$PATH"
the last 3 lines are vague attempts at getting this working, could well be wrong.
The output from some terminal commands I ran are as follows:
If I do ruby -v
I get: ruby 2.3.7p456 (2018-03-28 revision 63024) [universal.x86_64-darwin18]
which gem gives me /Users/georgeclark/.rbenv/shims/gem
output from:
echo $PATH, ls -l ~/.rbenv/shims, rbenv versions, gem env
is:
/Users/georgeclark/.rbenv/shims:/Users/georgeclark/.gem/ruby/2.3.7/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/Users/georgeclark/.nvm/versions/node/v10.16.0/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin, ls -l /Users/georgeclark/.rbenv/shims, rbenv versions, gem env
These seem ok.. just cant figure out why it wont run, and really don't want to use sudo 😕
It was my bad.
I wasn't setting the rbenv properly.
Once I set this up with:
rbenv global 2.4.5
Then all works fine.

Why do I need to add ~/.rbenv/bin to my path?

I read in rbenv can't change global ruby version that I need to add ~/.rbenv/bin to my PATH for rbenv to work.
That's also mentioned in the rbenv documentation but that directory doesn't exist as shown below:
$ ls -a ~/.rbenv/
. .. plugins shims version versions
So why do I need to add a directory that doesn't exist to my path for rbenv to work?
Edit:
#theTinMan, I tried uninstall and reinstalling, but I still don't have a ~/.rbenv/bin path. Where are you seeing in the documentation that it should be there?
$ rbenv --version
rbenv 1.0.0
$ which rbenv
rbenv () {
local command
command="$1"
if [ "$#" -gt 0 ]
then
shift
fi
case "$command" in
(rehash | shell) eval "$(rbenv "sh-$command" "$#")" ;;
(*) command rbenv "$command" "$#" ;;
esac
}
$ cd
$ ls .rbenv
plugins shims version versions
$ brew list | grep rbenv
rbenv

$ brew uninstall rbenv

I had the following in my .zshrc
export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(rbenv init -)"
But I only needed the bottom line
# export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(rbenv init -)"
