I have Textmate 2.0-beta.7.1 on Mac OSX v10.9.5
I would like to write ruby scripts so I installed the ruby bundle.
However when I try to run a script I get the error:
env: ruby18: No such file or directory
so having found that the path to my ruby installation using
which ruby
/usr/bin/ruby
I made sure this was in my variable paths in Textmate>Preferences> Variables so that it under the PATH variable name it looked like this:
$PATH:/usr/bin/ruby:/opt/local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin
I then tried to run my ruby script again and I got the same error. I have googled for hours and the only resolution seems to be the addition of the ruby path to $PATH as I have done above so I'm a bit confused as to my I cant proceed
Make sure you have not disabled the Bundle Support, TextMate, Text, Source, or SCM bundles in the Bundles tab of Preferences; these are all required bundles to support basic bundle functions.

I have no knowledge in Ruby, but I need to run some tests in it. The code is in Ruby and Cucumber. I use intellij on Mac. When I first open intellij cucumber step definition where not recognised from feature file. In terminal I got:
Required ruby-2.1.2 is not installed.
To install do: 'rvm install "ruby-2.1.2"'
but
$ which ruby
/Users/myuser/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.4.1/bin/ruby
so I run the install command as suggested and now I get
$ which ruby
/Users/myuser/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.2/bin/ruby
Now my feature files connected to step definition as well. I will appreciate if anyone could explain me what happened. What prompted me to downgrade the version of Ruby and how it fixed cucumber.
Make sure you have ruby 2.1.2 set in File -> Settings -> Languages & Frameworks -> Ruby SDK and Gems
What I suspect is happening is you have run rvm use 2.1.2 in the terminal but when your IDE runs something it is using the ruby version set in the settings.
You probably have a .ruby_version file in the project root directory. This will enforce a specific version of Ruby. So the person who put it there is who to ask why the version was restricted like that. There may have been a good reason, such as that's what is being used by all your users.
It has nothing to do with Cucumber. rvm has some kind of operating system hook, I think, that runs whenever you cd into a directory. It looks for its special control fiels such as .ruby_version and .rvmrc file. This page describes this in more detail: https://rvm.io/workflow/projects.
I would like to run gem commands, such as gem install, with a different ruby version than what is listed in gem env. The Ruby version I want to use is a pre-compiled version which I have the path for, so installing and using another version from RVM or similar would not solve my problem.
I do not want to change the RUBY EXECUTABLE permanently, just for one command at a time. I have tried to set GEM_HOME, GEM_PATH, PATH, RUBY and more. I have tried firing up gem with specific/version/of/ruby/path/ruby path/to/gem env, but I still get the default Ruby in my RUBY EXECUTABLE variable.
I even tried settingRUBY_EXECUTABLE=/path/to/correct/ruby, which also did not work.
What really surprised me was that when I edited the shebang in the path/to/gem file itself so it pointed to the correct Ruby, it still did not work! What is up with that?!
How can I change this variable so I can use gem goodness with my custom compiled Ruby?
This one is really beating me. I have now updated my rbconfig.rb to point to the desired Ruby path. I have looked at the rubygems source and replaced every single instance of the default ruby , in all the files I could find, with the path to the one I want. Even this did not set the environment correctly. Is this somehow hard-coded into the compiled ruby? If that is the case, why the star*4 is this done?
Try using rbenv (https://github.com/sstephenson/rbenv) or RVM to manage Ruby versions (https://rvm.io/). When you switch Ruby versions with rbenv, gem env will use use the new Ruby version. The following command can be used to change the Ruby version for a single shell:
$ rbenv shell 2.1.2
After hours and hours of research, stepping through the Ruby source with Pry, reading source code and more I figured out that this is not possible to do because it is hard-coded into ruby at compile time (wtf?). Anyway, the way to solve this is to simply recompile Ruby. Yeah.
There is also apparently a compile flag which you can set which removes this hard-coded environment: --enable-load-relative
After struggling with this for way to long I finally got this project working, where I have made an easy to use portable version of Ruby. Simply put, a folder with Ruby on it which you can move about, put on a USB stick or whatever, and it still works :)
I have installed ruby 1.9.3, with RubyInstaller and DevKit. I installed the required gem I'm looking forward to use, but no matter what I do i can't get it working. I run my program and i get the following runtime erro:
C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/gnuplot-2.6.2/lib/gnuplot.r
b:59:in `gnuplot': gnuplot executable not found on path (RuntimeError)
from C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/gnuplot-2.6.2/
lib/gnuplot.rb:74:in `open'
from cluster.rb:182:in `<main>'
What have i done wrong? I did try to add require rubygems, run :cmd>> ruby -rubygems ...(params)..., I installed the gem via gem install gem_name in the curent working directorie, but i can't make it find my gems.
PS: I encounter this problem on windows OS.
Solution addition: the path C:....\gnuplot.exe must be added to the PATH variable
The gnuplot gem is just a wrapper for the actual gnuplot application. This means that the application needs to be installed in order for the gem to work.
Your error mentions line 59 of /lib/gnuplot.rb which is an error raised when the gem attempts to find your system's installation of gnuplot. For Windows, it is looking in your PATH system variable.
If you do not have gnuplot installed prior to using the gem, you can download and install it from its SourceForge files page.
From Gnuplot's Rubyforge site:
"If the gnuplot executable for your system is called something other than simply 'gnuplot' then set the RB_GNUPLOT environment variable to the name of the executable. This must either be a full path to the gnuplot command or an executable filename that exists in your PATH environment variable."
I'm guessing the problem is that executables in Windows end with an .exe extension, so the program is looking for something just called 'gnuplot' and isn't finding it. You can try to set RB_GNUPLOT to the full path of the executable on your system. I've had to set environment variables in Windows before, it's possible; just google the solution for you particular OS.
I have two related questions that I was hoping someone could help out with.
I recently installed Ruby 1.9.2 on my Mac (running Snow Leopard 10.6.4) and I haven’t been able to figure out how to get Terminal to use the new Ruby as a default, rather than the factory-installed Ruby 1.8.7. The old Ruby 1.8.7 is located in my ~/usr/bin/ruby directory while the new Ruby 1.9.2 is in ~/usr/local/bin/ruby. Someone said that I need to put the new version of Ruby's directory in the PATH prior to the old version's directory so that the system looks there first - is this correct? If so, can anyone provide step by step instructions on how to do this?
I’ve created a new directory but can’t seem to figure out the correct way to add that directory to my PATH using the Terminal bash shell. I tried using the instructions that I found here (http://www.macgasm.net/2008/04/10/ad...thin-terminal/) twice but they didn't work for me. The directory containing my program ("Ruby_Programs") shows up in the PATH but when I try to run "ruby newprogram.rb" from the command line it results in ":ruby: No such file or directory -- newprogram.rb (LoadError)". The file definitely exists and is a functional Ruby program. I did change the name of the directory to "Ruby Programs" and then back to "Ruby_Programs" - could that have somehow caused this problem?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is my current PATH:
$ echo $PATH
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/Users/sbrriffe/src:/usr/X11/bin:/Users/sbriffe/Ruby_Programs/:
You might want to check out rvm. You can install multiple versions of ruby side by side and easily switch between them. If you follow the rvm installation notes you won't have any more path problems.
Your Ruby Programs directory shouldn't be in your path: the location of your ruby interpreter should be. Then, you cd to the location of your ruby program, and run it from there: ruby program.rb.
Since you are on a Mac, check out homebrew for something that will make installing software easier. I have my homebrew set up in /usr/local, and it works great.
Once you have installed stuff where you need it, then you'll want to adjust your $PATH. The items in $PATH are searched in the order they appear, so in your ~/.bashrc, you'll want to add:
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
To make sure /usr/local/bin gets searched before /usr/bin.
I would use RVM to get everything installed, and then once you have RVM installed it is easy to set your default Ruby version.
Check out https://rvm.io/ -- once you have that installed you can change your default by using : $ rvm use 1.9.2 --default
hope that helps- you can do this with any version, not only 1.9.2
I am trying to set up Ruby on Rails on windows. I am using the Flash Rails distribution that looks pretty good, but there is an issue with sqlite3. I found the threads telling me to install version 1.2.3, which installed fine. I'm using ruby 1.9.0, and every time I try and run a script (e.g. rake db:create) that uses the database I get an error message "no driver for sqlite3 found".
This apparently is a missing sqlite3.dll, but I have the dll in my %PATH%, and I have also tried copying it into the directory where I am running the script from, the directory where the sqlite3 ruby code lives.
Does anyone have any ideas? If possible I want all teh ruby stuff to be self contained so I can use it from a pen drive.
EDIT: To clarify, I already used gem install to install the ruby-sqlite3 gem - it is just non functional as it cannot find the sqlite3.dll (even though it is actually present in a directory on my %PATH%)
EDIT PART 2: After doing some more digging, the problem appears that ruby will not load the sqlite3_api.dll. I have copied it all over my filesystem, I just get a failure to read file. Other dll libraries in the same directory (e.g. zlib.dll) work fine!
I tried installing the dlls into system32, and that did not work either.
The problem put simply is that sqlite3-ruby 1.2.3 is not compatible with ruby 1.9. This is caused because ruby 1.9 does not use .dll files for c libraries it uses .so files instead. Additionally, since sqlite3_api.dll is written against msvcrt-ruby18.dll. This means that it specifically only will support ruby 1.8.*.
The good news is that there is a fat binary version that will support both ruby 1.8 and ruby 1.9. Uninstalling all former versions of sqlite3-ruby and then installing this one. (You may have to manually delete some versions the gem after uninstalling.) in order to install it use
install sqlite3-ruby --source http://gems.rubyinstaller.org
for more information see this website
Try installing the sqlite3-ruby gem:
gem install sqlite3-ruby
Something similar happened to me recently so I thought I'd update my answer.
For reference there's a sqlite3_api.dll file located in the gem's lib directory. Also the sqlite3.dll file needs to be reachable on the path. They are different files, the first is required by the gem to interface Ruby to C code, while the second contains the actual Sqlite implementation.
It's best to get the second file from the sqlite website and extract it to the Ruby\bin directory (as you shouldn't manually put DLL's into the windows or windows\system directories any more).
So for reference "sqlite3_api.dll" needs to be in:
Ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\sqlite3-ruby-1.2.3-x86-mswin32\lib
and "sqlite3.dll" needs to be on the path, possibly in:
Ruby\bin
As for the "driver not found" problem I would suggest trying the easy things first and making sure gems is installed correctly, up to date, and that the RUBYLIB and PATH environment variables are set appropriately. (System restart may be required to propagate the changes fully.)
Re this link
Download sqlitedll-3_6_10.zip and extract into ruby/bin!
Try going to sqlite.org download page and get the zipped up dll. Then put that in your c:\windows\system32 folder, that should allow Ruby to find it.
Restart your machine after running install sqlite3-ruby
To clarify, which gem are you using? sqlite-ruby or sqlite3-ruby?
They're part of the same project, but different releases. The key is that sqlite3 appears to have driver code included.
I assume you're attempting to use the first, since it's giving me the same error. If so, try switching.
Also.. How literal do you mean by this?
but I have the dll in my %PATH%
PATH=...;C:\sqlite\sqlite3.dll
PATH=...;C:\sqlite
The first will attempt to find C:\sqlite\sqlite3.dll\sqlite3.dll, AFAIK.
I use Ruby 1.8.7 (works with 1.9.1 too)
OS is WindowsXP SP3
Go to
http://www.sqlite.org/download.html
and Download file
sqlitedll-3_7_0_1.zip (265.19 KiB)
and unzip then we will get
sqlite3.dll
Copy sqlite3.dll to your bin folder
as C:\Ruby191\bin or C:\Ruby187\bin
then it works
