Thoughs as to why on an Apple M1
rbenv lists:
rbenv versions
system
2.7.6
* 3.1.2 (set by /Users/xxxxxx/.rbenv/version)
and ruby -v shows:
ruby 2.6.10p210 (2022-04-12 revision 67958) [universal.arm64e-darwin21
Enter this command in your terminal:
eval "$(rbenv init - zsh)"
/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin/ruby
/usr/bin/ruby
/Users/mac_pro/.rbenv/shims/ruby
I'am trying to do rbenv global 2.5.8 and after
export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(rbenv init -)"
but my version is always -
ruby 2.7.2p137 (2020-10-01 revision 5445e04352) [x86_64-darwin19]
i need 2.5.8 version
The rbenv global command only specifies, which ruby version should be used globally.
You also need to install this version with rbenv install 2.5.8.
I am working in OSX El Capitan. I have put the following at the end of my ~/.bash_profile, and restarted my terminal:
export RBENV_ROOT=/usr/local/var/rbenv
if which rbenv > /dev/null; then eval "$(rbenv init -)"; fi
Then I have run the following, without any errors:
brew install rbenv
brew install ruby-build
rbenv install 2.2.2
But when I try ruby --version I see:
ruby 2.0.0p648 (2015-12-16 revision 53162) [universal.x86_64-darwin15]
What am I doing wrong that means I see Ruby 2.0.0 not Ruby 2.2.2?
These are my paths:
~ $ which ruby
/usr/local/var/rbenv/shims/ruby
~ $ which rbenv
/usr/local/bin/rbenv
I think you have to change ruby version by following:
rbenv shell 2.2.2
After installing rbenv, I wanted to switch to the correct Ruby version to work on a project, but there seems to be an issue recognizing it.
$ cd project/
$ bundle install
$ Your Ruby version is 2.0.0, but your Gemfile specified 2.1.1
$ rbenv local
$ rbenv: no local version configured for this directory
$ rbenv global
$ 2.1.1
$ ruby --version
$ ruby 2.1.1p76 (2014-02-24 revision 45161) [x86_64-darwin13.0]
Am I overlooking something?
There was an issue with my $PATH variable.
This worked for me (in .bash_profile):
export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(rbenv init -)"
My Mac OS X has a default ruby.
$ ruby -v
ruby 2.0.0p451 (2014-02-24 revision 45167) [universal.x86_64-darwin13]
I installed rbenv and ruby version 2.1.2.
$ rbenv versions
system
* 2.1.2 (set by /Users/sdw/.rbenv/version)
and I tried to set the global ruby version to 2.1.2, but nothing happened.
$ rbenv global 2.1.2
$ ruby -v
ruby 2.0.0p451 (2014-02-24 revision 45167) [universal.x86_64-darwin13]
So I tried to do the same thing with command sudo, but the result is the same.
$ sudo rbenv global 2.1.2
$ ruby -v
ruby 2.0.0p451 (2014-02-24 revision 45167) [universal.x86_64-darwin13]
How can I change my global ruby version to 2.1.2? I never installed rvm or other ruby version managing system.
Did you add the following lines to your ~/.bash_profile?
export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(rbenv init -)"
See: https://github.com/sstephenson/rbenv#installation
Type $ rbenv version (without "s")
It is possible that output will show a path to the file that is locking the version
2.0.0p451 (set by /path/to/some/directory/.ruby-version)
It is even possible that the file is a hidden file named .ruby-version in your current dir. If its the case just remove that .ruby-version file
Run the below commands before change ruby version:
export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(rbenv init -)"
It works for me :)
Uninstall ruby and then install agains:
brew uninstall -f ruby
brew install ruby
Add this two line to you ~/.bash_profile
export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(rbenv init -)"
Reopen the console and that's it and run
ruby -v
I realize that I occasionally set local ruby version in home folder, from which I use terminal by default :)
So that's what worked for me:
rm /home/MYUSERNAME/.ruby-version
I had the same issue ("ruby -v" showing the initial version) but reloading (exit/start) my terminal made the trick.
Did you try that first?
If you are installing ruby on rails on ubuntu,and you rbenv doesn't change your ruby version
> rbenv list # This lists all the rbenv versions available
2.6.8
2.7.4
3.0.2
jruby-9.3.1.0
mruby-3.0.0
rbx-5.0
-truffleruby-21.3.0
-truffleruby+graalvm-21.3.0
In my case I need to install ruby 3.0.2
rbenv install 3.0.2
After this also it shows ruby v [2.7.0-]
rbenv global 3.0.2
This will help you change your ruby version.
instead of:
rbenv global 2.7.1
do:
sudo rbenv global 2.7.1
