Running bundle install gave the following

Followed this and changed to http in Gemfile. Problem Still exists. I didn't install any other ruby version. Default on Mac Ruby version : ruby 2.3.7p456 (2018-03-28 revision 63024) [universal.x86_64-darwin18], bundle version 2.0.1.
Running bundle update then gave
Authentication is required for http://rubygems.org/. Please supply credentials for this source. You can do this by running: bundle config http://rubygems.org/ username:password
No idea what the credentials should be, but I signed up at rubygems.org and used that username/password (Pardon if that was silly) and got
Bad username or password for http://username#rubygems.org/. Please double-check your credentials and correct them.
Followed this and turned off IPV6 and still same problem.(If anything the errors showed up a little faster)
Infact now realised none of the gem command works and gives errors like
gem install jekyll bundler
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Net::HTTPServerException)
403 "Forbidden"
While I did install jekyll and bundler yesterday. Today I ran bundle exec jekyll serve and got
Could not find gem 'minima (~> 2.0)' in any of the gem sources listed in your Gemfile.
Run bundle install to install missing gems.
Hence, it all started with trying to get Jekyll working.
OS : MacOS(10.14.3)
So I have a proxy in my organization's network which I knew would cause problems so I was infact using a different network. I finally tried to comment out the proxy settings in my .bash_profile, and it was still giving the same errors. I shut down the system and then tried again and it worked.
Such a bummer. Anyway I'm not deleting the question hoping for a better work around than this. I mean if every time I want to use gem I have to do this it's kind of a hassle.
Using http instead of https in your Gemfile should do the trick.
Use:
http://rubygems.org
Disable IPv6 and HTTPS .
(Windows) -
Open Gem file and replace :
source "https://rubygems.org"
with
source "http://rubygems.org"
then , Go To Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections
Right Click on your adapter , and select properties .
Untick IPv6 there
I just installed ruby version 2.3.0p0 using the ruby installer for windows and was trying to install bundler. When I run gem install bundler I get the following error:
Could not find a valid gem 'bundler' (>=0), here is why
Unable to download data from (link removed) rubygems -Errno:ETIMEDOUT:
Failed to open TCP connection to api.rubygems.org:443 (A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond. -connect(2) for "api.rubygems.org" port 443)(https://api.rubygems.org/specs.4.8.gz)
Some research led me to try running gem install --http-proxy http://[user]:[password]#[server]:[port] which i think might work because I am behind a proxy here and a similiar solution helped me clone a git repository earlier.
But when i tried this command I got the following error:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem:CommandLineError)
Please Specify at least one gem name (e.g. gem build GEMNAME)
UPDATE
So I tried that gem install --http-proxy.... command again with the gem name at the end and I am back to getting the original TCP connection error above. I am pretty sure the login information I entered is correct. I also added --source http://... instead of the https one but still am having the same problem?
1st off your error is pretty telling-
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem:CommandLineError) Please Specify
at least one gem name (e.g. gem build GEMNAME)
2nd make sure you have met the requirements for what you're trying to do http://bundler.io/
then run the code..
gem install bundler
bundle init
echo 'gem "rspec"' >> Gemfile
bundle install
bundle exec rspec
In 2023, the best way to install bundler on an old version of Ruby is:
gem update --system
RubyGems and Bundler now ship together, so to get the latest bundler, you should just install the latest RubyGems.
would you try disable ipv6, it had been worked for me
I'm a beginner in Ruby, following "Creating a New Rails Project".
But I can't start the server. I tried:
running rails server but got:
Could not find gem 'tzinfo-data <>= 0> x86-mingw32' in the gems available on the machine.
Run 'bundle install' to install missing gems.
running bundle install but got:
An error occurred while installing rake (10.4.2), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that 'gem install rake -v '10.4.2'' succeeds before bundling.
gem 'tzinfo-data' but got:
Unknown command tzinfo-data
gem install tzinfo-data:
Could not find a valid gem 'tzinfo-data' <>= 0>, here is why:
Unable to download data from...
I have Windows 8.1. 64-bit
tzinfo-data was resolved with a cacert.pem file following the guide in the accepted answer. Today I am trying to install bootstrap-sass gem file. Do I need an another .pem file?
Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read
server certificate B: certificate verify failed (https://rubygems.org/gems/boots
trap-sass-3.3.1.0.gem)
An error occurred while installing bootstrap-sass (3.3.1.0), and Bundler cannot
continue.
Make sure that `gem install bootstrap-sass -v '3.3.1.0'` succeeds before
bundling.
You have a common SSL issue.
You will see this error message:
certificate verify failed
The error message is because your system needs a new SSL certificate.
Here's information about it:
http://railsapps.github.io/openssl-certificate-verify-failed.html
On Windows:
Try upgrading your SSL certificates.
Download http://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem.
Save this file anywhere you want, such as:
C:\RailsInstaller\cacert.pem
On the command line, tell Ruby where to find the cert file, such as:
set SSL_CERT_FILE=C:\RailsInstaller\cacert.pem
Retry the gem installation.
If it works, that's great. If you want this to work with every project on your system, and also survive rebooting, then you can make the cert file permanent by adding the cert system-wide. To do this, use your Windows control panel.

I've been trying to install this 'rubygame' gem for some time, but whenever I use the command
gem install rubygame
it will give an error:
ERROR: Could not find a valid gem 'rubygame' (>= 0) in any repository
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)
Errno::ETIMEDOUT: Connection timed out - connect(2) (http://rubygems.org/latest_specs.4.8.gz)
I've also tried other gems but with similar results:
ERROR: Could not find a valid gem 'rake' (>= 0) in any repository
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)
Errno::ETIMEDOUT: Connection timed out - connect(2) (http://rubygems.org/latest_specs.4.8.gz)
I've already made sure I have an internet connection, and have already tried reinstalling both ruby and rubygems (currently using ruby 1.8, rubygems 1.7.2). Googling didn't help me at all. I would be very grateful if anyone can solve my problem. My sources list only shows http://rubygems.org
Check if you have "https://rubygems.org/" as a source to find gems at:
$ gem sources
*** CURRENT SOURCES ***
https://rubygems.org/
If not, you should be able to add it with
$ gem sources --add https://rubygems.org/
https://rubygems.org/ added to sources
Here are docs for the gem source command.
You can also add the source you want on the command whenever you have troubles using https, like this:
gem install GEMNAME --source http://rubygems.org
It's better to fix the SSL problem though.
are you behind any proxy?
check your browser for proxy that you might use:
execute the command: gem install xxx --http-proxy=http://user:password#server and you should be good to go.
You don't have an Internet connection to rubygems.org.
This happens sometimes if the site is down or blocked.
This command can show you if your connection has a way to reach rubygems.org:
traceroute rubygems.org
Maybe you should try
gem list -r
then
gem install -r rubygame
Also note that with rvmon MacosX (Lion in my case) you should install ruby-1.9.3-p194 (for Xcode 4.x compiler considerations) then
rvm rubygems current
and in my case I had to use
rvm use ruby-1.9.3-p194#global
(which contains bundler, rake, rubygems-bundlerand rvm)
and not
rvm use ruby-1.9.3-p194
(which is empty)
Can you post your versions?
ruby -v
#=> ruby 1.9.3p125 (2012-02-16 revision 34643) [x86_64-linux]
gem -v
#=> 1.8.19
If your gem command is not current, you can update it like this:
gem update --system
To see if you can connect to rubygems.org using Ruby:
require 'net/http'
require 'uri'
puts Net::HTTP.get URI.parse('https://rubygems.org')
If yes, that's good.
If no, then somehow Ruby is blocked from opening a net connection. Try these and see if any of them work:
curl https://rubygems.org
curl https://rubygems.org --local-port 1080
curl https://rubygems.org --local-port 8080
env | grep -i proxy
If you're using a company machine, or within a company firewall, or running your own firewall, you may need to use a proxy.
For info on Ruby and proxies see
http://www.linux-support.com/cms/http-proxies-and-ruby/
I have fixed this issue using the proxy command option of gem install. It has the following format:
$ gem install --http-proxy http://201.187.107.19:8080 rubygame
Note, the IP address and the port number refers to a proxy. You should search for a proxy list and use one of the proxies there.
This is site with proxies: http://www.cybersyndrome.net/pla5.html
Also, I have to try 7 or 8 different proxies in order to succeed. Do not give up.
Use :
gem sources --add http://rubygems.org/
Do you want to add this insecure source? [yn] [YES]
then use
gem install sass
and done
I know this is a little late, but I was also having this issue a while ago. This is what worked for me:
REALLY_GEM_UPDATE_SYSTEM=1
sudo gem update --system
sudo gem install rails
Hope this helps anyone else having this issue :)
I have tried most of the solutions suggested here but I had no luck.
I found a solution that worked for me, which was manually updating the gemfile to 2.6.7.
The guide on how to do is in guides.rubygems.org: installing-using-update-packages
Download rubygems-update-2.6.7.gem to your C:\
Now, using your Command Prompt:
C:\>gem install --local C:\rubygems-update-2.6.7.gem
C:\>update_rubygems --no-ri --no-rdoc
After this, gem --version should report the new update version (2.6.7).
You can now safely uninstall rubygems-update gem:
C:\>gem uninstall rubygems-update -x
Removing update_rubygems
Successfully uninstalled rubygems-update-2.6.7
The reason why this did not work before was because server used certificates SHA-1, now this was updated to SHA-2.
For what it is worth I came to this page because I had the same problem. I never got anywhere except some IMAP stuff that I don't understand. Then I remembered I had uninstalled privoxy on my ubuntu (because of some weird runtime error that mentioned 127.0.0.1:8118 when I used Daniel Kehoe's Rails template, https://github.com/RailsApps/rails3-application-templates [never discovered what it was]) and I hadn't changed my terminal to the state of no system wide proxy, under network proxy.
I know this may not be on-point but if I wound up here maybe other privoxy users can benefit too.
check your DNS settings ...I was facing similar problem ... when I checked my /etc/resolve.config file ,the name server was missing ... after adding it the problem gets resolved
This worked for me to bypass the proxy definitions:
1) become root
2) gem install -u gem_name gem_name
Hope you can work it out
I tried to install a gem which is for JRuby only, running into the same error. Using jruby's command worked then:
jruby -S gem install some_jruby_gem
If you are running behind the any firewall(if firewall blocking gem installation). just try following command it works.
gem install --http-proxy http://username:pwd#server:port gem
Make sure you type the command from the "App" Directory
It is a permission issue.
try with sudo
I have been doing JavaScript and some Erlang for around six months and I haven't done any Rails programming lately. Today on my new PC I went to install Rails but got this error:
gem install rails
WARNING: RubyGems 1.2+ index not found for:
http://gems.rubyforge.org/
RubyGems will revert to legacy indexes degrading performance.
Bulk updating Gem source index for: htp://gems.rubyforge.org/
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteSourceException)
Error fetching remote gem cache: SocketError: getaddrinfo: The system cannot

A friend of mine said: "gem -v?" to which I responded "1.3.5". He suggested I update to 1.3.6 but I had the same problem. Then I installed a few gems for testing purposes from github.
I don't know if I'm missing a source or something, or if something changed drastically in gems.
Also:
gem sources -a htp://gemcutter.org/
Error fetching htp://gemcutter.org/:
SocketError: getaddrinfo: The system cannot find the file specified. (http://gemcutter.org/specs.4.8.gz)
For Mac OSX the solution that worked for me was:
sudo gem install rubygems-update --source http://production.s3.rubygems.org/
sudo gem update --system --source http://production.s3.rubygems.org/
It comes from some file on github of all places.
Try reinstalling rubygems from scratch here: http://rubygems.org/pages/download
RubyForge has been deprecated and may no longer be working properly. The other possibility is that when you tried to do this rubyforge or gemcutter was down, or otherwise not accessible over your network. You can also try seeing if you can reach the file on rubygems by entering it in your browser (to test your network): http://gemcutter.org/specs.4.8.gz
This question has previously been asked here: RubyGems 1.2+ index not found for:. It appears the problem was that rubyforge was blocked by China's firewall.
Good luck!
