I successfully installed ruby on my Ubuntu server by using the following command.
1-sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
2-sudo apt-add-repository ppa:brightbox/ruby-ng
3-sudo apt-get update
4-sudo apt-get install ruby2.1
But when i tried to install Rails version 4.2.0 using the below command.
gem install rails --version=4.2.0
i got the following error.
Error:
Error:While executing gem (Errorno-EACCES)
permission denied # dir_s_mkdir - /var/lib/gems
Please help me to resolve this error and install rails successfully.I also have another doubt here.After installing ruby when i chcked the version it is showing me the ruby version 2.1.7 but here i need ruby version 2.1.5.Please also help me do this.I am using Ubuntu 14.0 version.
The issue might be because the gem executable is not installed in user directory.
You can confirm this using which gem.
Run this command for installing rails.
sudo gem install rails --version=4.2.0
UPDATE:
The error : Errror: Error installing rails Error: failed to build gem native extension might be because of lack of dev-headers.
Try running this :
sudo apt-get install ruby2.1-dev
These errors are the reasons you should probably try using rbenv or rvm to install ruby and rails.

My ultimate goal is to get this to work in an Ubuntu 14.04 Docker container: https://github.com/byalextran/autoluv
When I run
m1#9bdc67007b49:~/autoluv$ bundle install --deployment
It says:
Fetching unf_ext 0.0.7.4
Installing unf_ext 0.0.7.4 with native extensions
Errno::EACCES: Permission denied # rb_sysopen - /home/m1/autoluv/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.4.0/gems/unf_ext-0.0.7.4/.document
An error occurred while installing unf_ext (0.0.7.4), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install unf_ext -v '0.0.7.4' --source 'https://rubygems.org/'` succeeds before bundling.
But when I run
sudo gem install unf_ext -v '0.0.7.4' --source 'https://rubygems.org/'
unf_ext-0.0.7.4 installs fine?
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
Successfully installed unf_ext-0.0.7.4

Installing RDoc documentation for unf_ext-0.0.7.4...
I cannot figure out the next step. I've tried installing ruby-dev and gcc, but neither has helped move this along :(
Any and all help is much appreciated!
I had this same problem and the reason was that I did not installed all the dependencies that bundler needs to run
just try to:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
then run again
gem install bundler
and lastly
bundler
There is a difference between running commands with sudo and without. You can get more info about this command here https://kb.iu.edu/d/amyi.
Errno::EACCES usually happens when bunder has no access to a needed folder or it doesn't exist.
Try to gem install unf_ext -v '0.0.7.4' --source 'https://rubygems.org/' without sudo.
I had same issue on Fedora.
I simply had to install the gcc-c++ package.
I solved this error on Debian 10 buster in my ChromeOS Linux container by installing rbenv: sudo aptitude install rbenv or sudo apt install rbenv.
Aptitude package manager seems to be better at resolving dependencies and allowing me to install newer packages more easily than the default apt so I thought it was worth mentioning.
Solved it after using following commands for Xcode 13, BigSur :
softwareupdate --install a
sudo port upgrade outdated
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
brew install wget
brew install build-essentials
bundler install
If you are an iOS developer who is getting this error, this might be related to your Xcode command line tools selection.
Just run the following command with the path of the Xcode that you are using currently.
sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app
You need to use the latest version of Ruby.
If you are using MacOS, system Ruby is old and outdated. you can not update the system Ruby, but you can install another version of Ruby and make it default global using rbenv ruby version manager tool.
finally you can install any ruby packages you like.
Trying to install sass within a bit bucket pipelines docker instance and getting the error Failed to build gem native extension
The logs show the following:
gem install sass --no-user-install
Successfully installed rb-fsevent-0.10.2
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing sass:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
I am using a image php:7.1.1
Ruby and Gem should be installed as in my script I run:
apt-get update && apt-get install -y unzip nodejs ruby-full
gem install sass --no-user-install
Thanks in advance
I had the same problem. The following packages have solved the problem:
apt-get install -y ruby-dev gcc automake libtool rubygems build-essential
Best regards
I noticed this error today too using gitlab-ci with a docker image based on php:7.0.
I tried installing ruby-dev and doing a gem update --system first as I found in another SO solution and it didn't fix the error.
Sorry i couldn't post this as a comment, my reputation is too low, but I wanted you to know you're not alone. Hopefully this is a gem toolchain issue that gets fixed quickly.
I want to install Octopress in my computer.
I try to do it like
Octopress document.
When I run
bundle install
I got error message
An error occured while installing RedCloth (4.2.9), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install RedCloth -v '4.2.9'` succeeds before bundling.
So, I run
sudo gem install RedCloth -v '4.2.9'
then, I got a error message again:
ERROR: Error installing RedCloth:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
/usr/bin/ruby1.9.1 extconf.rb
/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require': cannot load such file -- mkmf (LoadError)
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require'
from extconf.rb:1:in `<main>'
I hadn't learn any knowledge about ruby.
My ubuntu 12.04 solution is install the ruby1.9.1-full version, that can resolve this issue.
sudo apt-get install ruby1.9.1-full
you can execute command:
sudo update-alternatives --config ruby
to select the altiernative ruby which you have installed.
and then, execute below commands to finish the octopress deploy:
git clone https://github.com/erizhang/octopress.git octopress
cd octopress/
sudo gem install bundler
sudo gem install RedCloth -v '4.2.9'
bundle install
rake install
below commands you can find from octopress deploy guideline page:
rake setup_github_pages
sudo rake setup_github_pages
sudo rake generate
sudo rake deploy
Hope it's helpful for you, thanks
I was installing Octopress too and got the same problem as yours. After checking the mkmf.log file I figured out that gcc-4.2 had not been found. I Even installed xcode with the command line tools. It worked when I made a symlink like this:
$ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.2
$ bundle install
I fixed this issue by running
sudo apt-get install ruby-dev
as described in this blog post.
You've probably upgraded to Mountain Lion and have not rebuilt your ruby-1.9.2 install yet with the new development packages.
rvm --force install 1.9.2
gem install bundle --no-ri --no-rdoc
bundle install
If you don't have the Mountain Lion dev packages installed correctly, use the ThoughtBot instructions.
For Ubuntu 14.04 simply do this:
sudo apt-get install ruby1.9.3
Should work for 13.10 and 13.04 too. (Not tested)
it apears you are not using rvm for managing your ruby installation. I think best would be to try rvm, here's a very good guide, you can stop without installing rails: ruby with rvm
Then simply
$gem install RedCloth
Unmanaged ruby gems are a pain, I try to avoid them.
None of the answers worked on my Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS. Upgrade to ruby 2.0 fixed the problem for me:
sudo apt-get install ruby2.0 ruby2.0-dev
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ruby2.0 /usr/bin/ruby
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gem2.0 /usr/bin/gem
sudo gem install bundler
Make sure you also have the build-essential package installed. You can check using
dpkg -l | grep build-essential
or simply install it without checking
sudo apt-get install build-essential
For me on Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS, after making sure build-essential is installed, the bundle install command works/builds fine also with Ruby 1.9.3.
I'm trying to install Rails using Gem and did the following from the terminal:
sudo apt-get install ruby-full build-essential
sudo apt-get install rubygems
export PATH=/var/lib/gems/1.8/bin:$PATH
gem install rails
Then I get the following message:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno:EACCES)
Permission denied - /var/lib/gems
I've followed the instruction from Ubuntu Help Guide & I'm using Oracle VM VirtualBox to run Ubuntu under Windows 7 and have RubyGems v1.8.15.
You need to prefix the gem command with sudo because /var/lib/gems is owned by root. You could also take a look at RVM which allows really easy installation and management of gems and Ruby versions. Best part, it's all in your home dir!
EDIT: per #AndrewMarshall's comment bellow, rbenv is an alternative to RVM.
I'm fairly new to Linux and i'm trying to install Chiliproject on a CentOs 5.5.
When I try to install rubygems to install Rails, here is what I get:

Does anyone know what the error might be? I tried to reinstall but it didnt change anything.
Here is the tutorial I used: https://github.com/sstephenson/rbenv
Apparently it was an issue on the server side. It's working nicely now.
