Trouble installing ruby with RVM. Database file does not exist? - ruby

Running into big problems at step one. I got RVM installed, then typed "rvm install 1.9.3" and here's the output:

I went and read the log files it mentioned but that lead nowhere. Any idea what I should do? I've practically Googled my face off and can't find a solution.

this looks suspicious, how did you installed RVM ?
the simplest solution is to:
touch /Users/DavesPiece/.rvm/config/packages

If you don't have Xcode, you'll need to install it. If you have Lion 10.7.3 or above you can find it in the App Store. Otherwise, you will need to go to the Apple Developer site (requires account) to find instructions for downloading and installing it.
Also, if you're on Lion, you may need to download and install GCC-10.7-v2.pkg. If you see a message about your compiler being LLVM based, you may need to use this command instead:
CC=/usr/bin/gcc-4.2 rvm install 1.9.2-p290 --enable-shared
Without having seen your configure.log this is just a best guess.

Not sure what happened but I just tried the same thing and now it's working perfect. Thank you everyone who left a helpful comment, it's greatly appreciated!
You need to update Command Line Tools to latest version, also for ruby 1.9.3 it is still preferred to use gcc-4.2 for compilation.
Also make sure you update RVM before trying again:
rvm get head
rvm install 1.9.2
Finally, Ruby 2.0.0 should be compatible with 1.9.3 and you should update.
I ran into similar issues trying to install Ruby on Rails on Lion a month ago. In the end, I used an installer. If using an installer is a viable option for you, check out the Rails Installer.
try to use this it will install all
wget --no-check-certificate https://raw.github.com/joshfng/railsready/master/railsready.sh && bash railsready.sh

What could be the problem? Please bear with me because I am new to MAC.
I am trying to install ruby 1.9.3
But it sticks to ruby 1.8.7 after i installed RVM via curl command.
whenever i try to install ruby 1.9.3 using rvm install command... it keeps on displaying errors.
Do the following:
I too recommend you make sure to read rvm requirements but here's the gist of it for your convenience.
Upgrade to the latest Xcode, launch it, go to Preferences -> Downloads -> click "Install" for "Command Line Tools".
Install homebrew if you don't already have it. Then:
brew update
brew upgrade
brew install git
If you need to install rubies older than 1.9.3 do the following:
brew tap homebrew/dupes
brew install autoconf automake apple-gcc42
rvm pkg install openssl
At this point you should rvm reinstall all of your rubies so they're compiled against all of your new stuff. Be sure to then run rvm use [RUBY] --default to use that ruby and make it the default one.
You need a compiler. Xcode command line tools or gcc. You probably have homebrew installed. I recommend you run brew doctor and follow the instructions.
You also must add a line to your bash file. This commands does that for you:
echo "source $HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" >> ~/.bash_profile
After that you should be good.
UPDATE:
Instead of installing Xcode see what this command tells your to do:
rvm requirements
I don't use rvm at the moment but it seems your will be better with gcc wich that command tells you to install.

It looks like missing development tools, read output of (and follow instructions):

Most important you need make you can get it with osx-gcc-installer.
For fresh installation an option would be also RailsInstaller for OSX

Issue installing 1.8.7 p358 under RVM

Any idea how to fix? I've tried rvm get head, installing gcc-4.2 and using that, using clang, etc. But nothing seems to work.
Make sure to satisfy all requirements specified by:
rvm requirements
Including Xcode 4.1 or osx-gcc-installer
Run (to fix broken download):
rvm cleanup archives
and try again:
rvm reinstall 1.8.7
Is there any reason why you are going with 1.8.7? it's about at end of life and 1.9.3 should be used instead if this is not an requirement.
