Error Installing Homebrew - Brew Command Not Found [duplicate] - ruby

Installing Homebrew on macOS
(24 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I've spent the bulk of my Friday trying to get the latest version of Ruby installed on my new MacBook Air (w/ Mountain Lion installed).
I have all the latest versions of XCode and command line tools. But I can't seem to get Homebrew to work! Here's a screenshot of where I keep getting stuck (I'm a new user, so can't embed this image).
As you can see I used the following to instal Homebrew:
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSkL raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go/install)"
While there was a "warning" it seemed as though the installation worked:
Warning: /usr/local/bin is not in your PATH.
==> Installation successful!
Despite that, when I try to run "brew doctor" I received the following:
-bash: brew: command not found
Again, I'm trying to install homebrew, so i can instal the latest version of ruby -- I'm looking to learn to code in ruby, but kind of screwed if I can even get a development environment running! :)

The warning is telling you what is wrong. The problem is that brew is kept in /usr/local/bin
So, you can try /usr/local/bin/brew doctor
To fix it permanently alter your bash profile (.bashrc or .profile in your home directory) and add the following line:
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
On Apple silicone it's
export PATH=/opt/homebrew/bin/:$PATH

Check XCode is installed or not.
gcc --version
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
brew doctor
brew update

nano ~/.profile
add these lines:
export PATH="$HOME/.linuxbrew/bin:$PATH"
export MANPATH="$HOME/.linuxbrew/share/man:$MANPATH"
export INFOPATH="$HOME/.linuxbrew/share/info:$INFOPATH"
save the file:
Ctrl + X then Y then Enter
then render the changes:
source ~/.profile

This was just happening to me, but none of the suggestions above worked. I changed directories ("cd ~/tmp") and suddenly the command
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"
worked for me. Prior to changing directories I had been in a directory that is a Git repository. Perhaps that was interfering with the ruby and Git commands in the Brew install script.

You can run in terminal
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/linuxbrew/go/install)"
then install https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh.
When those complate run i.e pico editor pico .zshrc and past those lines:
export PATH="$HOME/.linuxbrew/bin:$PATH"
export MANPATH="$HOME/.linuxbrew/share/man:$MANPATH"
export INFOPATH="$HOME/.linuxbrew/share/info:$INFOPATH"
remember use brew doctor :)

try this
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Linuxbrew/linuxbrew/go/install)"

You can use this:
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"
to install homebrew.

zsh: command not found: brew in mac

I had homebrew installed on my mac. Today after sometime, I tried to download psql through brew on my mac on terminal but I keeping getting:
zsh: command not found: brew
I have it installed so I do not know why zsh is not picking brew?
First you have run the below command for install homebrew on particular path
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
And then set the path using below command
echo export PATH="/opt/homebrew/bin:$PATH" >> ~/.zshrc
Its working fine for MacOS

how to uninstall homebrew using an arm based Mac?

I installed homebrew today. And I did something wrong so that my homebrew can't work now. Since I use an arm based mac, I am hard to find solution to uninstall my homebrew which installed in /opt/homebrew/.
To uninstall Homebrew, run the uninstall script from the Homebrew/install repository.
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/uninstall.sh)"
Download the uninstall script and run /bin/bash uninstall.sh --help to view more uninstall options.
Make sure your homebrew path is correct and then run the script:
echo $HOMEBREW_PREFIX #=> /opt/homebrew
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/uninstall.sh)"
See: https://github.com/homebrew/install#uninstall-homebrew

After uninstall brew cannot install it back

I could not update brew update. There was fatal error all the time. I di dnot use brew for years so I thought I'll uninstall it and then install back. I run
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/uninstall)"
that went smoothly.
But after that when I try
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
It tells that
-bash: /usr/local/bin/ruby: No such file or directory
When I read how to install ruby it suggests brew install ruby but I have just uninstalled it.
I've searched over google and tried a lot of different commands but nothing works.
It's often the case that bash remembers where executables were in your path and if those are later removed it gets very confused. There's ways of rehashing this to update that, but creating a new shell usually fixes the issue just the same.
Specifying the full path to the system Ruby will also work.

Error in running Homebrew on Mac OS X mavericks

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)" -e:70: warning: Insecure world writable dir /usr in PATH, mode 040777 It appears Homebrew is already installed. If your intent is to reinstall you should do the following before running this installer again: rm -rf /usr/local/Cellar /usr/local/.git && brew cleanup
I have this on my terminal but I cant make use of homebrew. I need to use homebrew to install django pyhton web framework. However I don't seem to get the error here. It says its already installed but none of the brew commands work.
ghochee-macbook-pro:logs streamoid$ brew doctor -bash: brew: command not found <<<<<
Can anyone please help? I also see that there is no .bash_profile file with the PATH variable set, am I looking the right folder and file here?
It sounds like /usr/local/bin isn't on your $PATH. You can add it by running the following command in the terminal:
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/bin:${PATH}"' >> ~/.bash_profile
Then restart your terminal for the changes to take affect.

Install homebrew mac os x for xampp

A month ago I installed hombrew and pystuff to use python on my mac. Since then I've been doing more database oriented programming ie mysql and php. Long story short; I was trying to run xampp command stuff from the terminal but it wasn't working so I deduced that my installation paths for xampp (mamp) wasn't valid. I have since uninstalled xampp and tried installing with home-brew via this link: http://www.threeeyedbird.com/blog/2013/06/11/setting-up-a-local-dev-environment-with-homebrew/
The first line of installation;
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)"
yielded a result that told me the link was invalid so I;
brew ls
to make sure home-brew was already installed, and it was...
I have since uninstalled home-brew in this link
https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/82807/how-to-cleanly-remove-homebrew
Now when I type:
brew ls
It says command not found which is good because i wanted to uninstall everything completely...
I want to install home-brew in the proprietary paths that would make for a great local developing environment i.e.; all the command line short cuts work, all the paths are correct etc
The only problem now when I enter the first line of the home-brew install for a fresh start (which installs home-brew): ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)"
The terminal tells me the link is invalid. and i get a bad request 400 error
How can I download home-brew perfectly all things considered?
This was the link that didn't work
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)"
I just installed it using this link from the home-brew web page
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"
