I'm having trouble installing RVM on a new Debian 6 VirtualBox VM. I've installed all the needed packages and downloaded the install script fine using
(curl -s https://rvm.beginrescueend.com/install/rvm) > rvm
, but when running it as a single user
bash rvm
I get the following error message:
ERROR: Unable to checkout branch .
Installation stops here, and (as far as I can tell) none of RVM's files are installed.
If I run the script as root (for a multi-user install), I get the other message:
Successfully checked out branch ''
The installer continues and indiciates success, but .rvm directories are not added and even after modifying my .bash_profile(s), I get 'rvm: command not found'.
I'm really stumped here. I don't have a ton of experience in either bash or with git, so I'm not sure if the fact that 'branch' is blank is the problem, or how to continue debugging. I'm here to learn, so please don't hesitate to ask questions so we can figure this out.
Thanks.
I had a /etc/rvmrc lying around that was confusing it. The rvm-installer was trying to install into /usr/local and failing. Deleting it fixed it.
Had the same problem.
Checked for /etc/rvmrc - but did not exist.
Did a ls -al, and found .rvm in my home directory.
Ran rm -rf .rvm
For the syntax error when install rvm on windows.
1. curl -s https://rvm.beginrescueend.com/install/rvm
2. sh rvm
and that did it!
You can try this. (it worked for me)
Set the rvm_path to be user-facing:
appuser$ echo 'rvm_path="$HOME/.rvm"' >> ~/.rvmrc
Now install RVM,
appuser$ curl -s https://raw.github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/master/binscripts/rvm-installer -o rvm-installer ; chmod +x rvm-installer ; ./rvm-installer

I am having a problem about linuxbrew.
bash: /lustre7/home/lustre4/user1/applications/bin/cut: /lustre7/home/lustre4/user1/.linuxbrew/lib/ld.so: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory
I tried to uninstall linuxbrew using instructions at its website, but somehow it didn't work (because of sudo requirements).
there is linuxbrew directory but I can't remove when I type rm -r linuxbrew it says;
-bash: /lustre7/home/lustre4/user1/applications/bin/rm: /lustre7/home/lustre4/user1/.linuxbrew/lib/ld.so: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory
When I tried to install homebrew it says your CPU is not supported. (I tried this before and it worked, but now it is not working.)
I want to solve this problem but I couldn't find any solution. I am not able to run sudo and yum commands because I am not root. I am a user at a linux cluster.
OK. I finally was able to solve this issue.
I am wring in case someone else may have the same issue.
First, this was related to a bash problem. I recently installed a tool that put some variables to both bashrc and bash_profile and altered path of bin directory.
I wasn't able to use system commands such as rm, ls, cat etc. and I wasn't able to run system ruby. Paths of all commands and ruby were in my bin directory under my application directory.
What I did is;
I edited my bash_profile by cancelling the new path that caused conflict between bash_profile and bashrc. This enabled me run system commands.
I uninstalled linuxbrew as described in its website.
I removed linuxbrew from my home directory, and cancelled its path in bash_profile (comment out).
I installed homebrew again and put its path to my bashrc.
Now it is working.
I could uninstall linuxbrew using the procedure I described in here:
How to completely uninstall brew and re-install brew in ubuntu 19.04
-> In short, I just replaced install.sh by uninstall.sh and it worked...

I was trying to install jekyll in my Mac and got the warning as following:
WARNING: You don't have /Users/Carrot/.gem/ruby/2.3.0/bin in
your PATH, gem executables will not run.
I checked through gem list and it shows it is installed; and I can find the jekyll through the path "/Users/Carrot/.gem/ruby/2.3.0/bin". I read a post which seems like my situation. I would like to know if it's a must to go through sudo? I now prefer to uninstall everything (since it also installed sass and bunch of things at the same time) and go through homebrew. How can I do the uninstallation?
Many thanks!
For those who have problems with #lamech-desai answer, (actually, when they do Desai's commands, it apparently works temporarily for them).
So you can easily do these:
open ~/.bshrc if you would like to use bash or ~/.zshrc if your are using zsh or etc...
$ sudo nano .bashrc ## bash users
$ sudo nano .zshrc ## zsh users
then copy and past these two lines of code at the end of the .*rc file:
export GEM_HOME="$(ruby -e 'puts Gem.user_dir')"
export PATH="$PATH:$GEM_HOME/bin"
then simply press ctrl+s and ctrl+x. This will save the changes to .bashrc but you won't see them immediately - directly on your next shell login with your current user. One way to see the changes immediately is to switch user to root with su root and then switch back to your previous user with su <username> - and voila, your .bashrc will be reloaded. You can also check this with echo $PATH.
Thanks to #lamech-desai for great answer
If you are using arch linux just use the commands below in your terminal
[user~]$ export GEM_HOME="$(ruby -e 'puts Gem.user_dir')"
[user~]$ export PATH="$PATH:$GEM_HOME/bin"
[user~]$ gem list
[user~]$ gem update
You need to add the directory to your PATH environment variable
https://askubuntu.com/questions/406643/warning-you-dont-have-a-directory-in-your-path-gem-executables-will-not-run
If you are on a Mac like me, you need to add the PATH to the PATH environmental variable. You can do it with export command:
export PATH="/Users/Carrot/.gem/ruby/2.3.0/bin:$PATH"
If you wanna know more about this process, here is a blog post about this: Adding a Path to the Linux PATH Variable
Probably a bit odd to answer my own question but I did finally fix it somehow like a blind fly. I hope to write down the experience maybe who else is totally like me as a absolute beginner with everything wouldn't get struggling overnight.
Stage 1: from gem to homebrew (failed)
At the beginning, I did remove items that install in gem item-by-item, then I install brew-gem to do it. At some stage, it work for jekyll but not my theme. It kept popping out I didn't install a package that the theme needs even I installed it manually. So in the end, I remove everything related to jekyll from homebrew.
Stage 2: back to gem (very long path but finally made it)
I later found a page tell step-by-step to install jekyll. I am using OSX 10.13 (High Sierra) that cause me the permission problem. So I just granted access with this line:
sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local/*
The * is a must or it won't work. I did the same to the ruby part
sudo chown -R $(whoami) /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.3.0/*
After that I install jekyll and bundler carefully following the instruction. And install the packages that the theme needs manually through gem install, which you can find at the Gemfile. I got the problem of jekyll-sitemap similar as this, I followed the method to install pygment.rb through gem install pygments.rb. And now my site is locally work.
Downloaded Vagrant, and went through th installation process.
When I ran vagrant -v it says vagrant: command not found
It has put the files in /opt/vagrant/...
It should install in the Applications folder with a link to the /usr/bin so it is added to the shell path.
There is no directory that has been created during this process.
I am afraid I can't even get started with it. ITs obviously not creating all the shortcuts it needs to be able to run the commands.
I have looked for support on this issue and reported a bug.
I also accepted the xcode licence agreement.
Has anybody else had this issue.
My next step is to manually create the shortcuts.
If you look at the uninstall script including in the Vagrant DMG, it is referring to /usr/local/bin which does not exist. It should be error handling (the Vagrant pkg installer) and create it (permissions/ownership etc) but it doesn't.
You need to mkdir the /usr/local/bin. I tried a symlink between /usr/bin/vagrant (as /usr/bin exists, and in-path) to /opt/vagrant/bin/vagrant BUT this does not work, as later on in life, Vagrant refers in a hard fashion to /usr/local/bin/vagrant because its stupid.
$ sudo mkdir /usr/local/bin
If you sudo it, it should be made with correct ownership etc. Now just re-run the Vagrant installer pkg.
Make sure the Virtual Box setup is installed on Mac before installing Vagrant.
I raised the bug with https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/6034
The issue is that I had no /usr/local directory at all.
It is an apple issue.
After I created the directories as you described I was able to install vagrant vitrual boax and laravel.
Here is what I did.
sudo mkdir /usr/local
Then bin.
cd /usr/local
sudo mkdir bin
I uninstalled Vagrant, re-installed and when I ran vagrant -v I then got the version.
cd /usr/local/bin
ls
sudo chmod 755 vagrant
Thanks for your Answer.
Weird, on 1.8.5 I couldn't run Vagrant either, noticed that /usr/local/bin was owned by root. Ran command
# chown -R User:Group /usr/local/bin
as root and works from my username now.
This is the error I keep getting when I try to run meteorite
$ mrt
Stand back while Meteorite does its thing
✓ router

There was a problem cloning repo: https://github.com/tmeasday/meteor-router.git
I've tried sudo -H npm install -g meteorite
I've installed and reinstalled it a bunch of times
I have git installed, I have Xcode installed, I have Homebrew installed and I have meteor.
All of those work.
This is my $PATH
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/git/bin
This is which Git
/usr/local/bin/git
This is which mrt
/usr/local/bin/mrt
Not sure if this is relevant but I have two drives in my Mac one that has the user folder and the other that has system files.
Any help? I'm a unix newb so please be very clear on solutions. Thanks
Found the Error, make sure the Volume name has no SPACES. Mine had a few spaces and Meteorite git.js doesn't account for that. Just rename the Volume with no SPACES and it should work.
try running it as root:
$ sudo mrt
I always have to do this when using Meteorite to bundle on remote machines.
You might also need to create a symbolic link on mrt..
$ ln -s /usr/local/bin/mrt /usr/bin/mrt
It might be solved already, but I had the same error.
It turned out that Apple wanted me to agree on Terms, which I found out after running:
git --version
I had to run this as a administrator
sudo git --version
And agree upon the long list of Apple Terms. Afterwards my meteorite (and GIT for that matter) was running like a charm again.
ok, so i'm coming from a python virtualenv environment, so please bear with me...
i am trying to install rvm on a non-internet visible machine (ie it doesn't have direct outside access). so
curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby
would not work. no problems i thought, i'll just copy the file over from another machine and do a cat that worked, however, because rvm tries to download the source files directly from the web, it again failed....
so i found that if i put the tarballs under ~/.rvm/archives, i can install rvm as a single user (and take up ~200MB of my home space)... however, i want to install for multiuser for production purposes and use .rvm directories in my project. however, my /usr/local is read only (afs mount).... so rvm fails again.
any ideas? i don't particularly like the idea of having a rvm user and group.
I believe you can supply --path=/opt/rvm to the RVM install script to change the location of a multi-user installation.
I don't believe the RVM group can be changed as it relies on that group to operate correctly.
hmm... so i decided to look at the rvm-install script (ie https://get.rvm.io). basically, it was hardcoded to /usr/local/rvm, so i just changed that to /opt/rvm.
i then also had to add a check for the rvm tarball under the get_and_unpack function:
if [ -e ${rvm_archives_path}/${_file} ]
then
true
elif curl -L ${_url} -o ${rvm_archives_path}/${_file}
then download the file at https://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/tarball/master into /opt/rvm/archives/wayneeseguin-rvm-master.tgz
that installed rvm fine into /opt/rvm.
however, logging back in will result in -bash: __rvm_add_to_path: command not found. this is because the profile.d script is hard coded to /usr/local/, so doing a find and replace on /etc/profile.d/rvm.sh to /opt/ did the trick.
however, all the files are still group'd to rvm. which is fine, but another group i have to justify to my unix-admin.
