When running bundler, I normally type:
bundle install
However, I accidentally added another string after this, turning into the likes of:
bundle install foobar
Now all my gems are being installed to ./foobar. Even if I try to run bundle install without the third param, my gems are installed to ./foobar again anyway. I can't seem to find any help on addressing this anywhere, and I'm not sure if it's an effect of bundler, rvm, etc.
How do I go about fixing this?
Figured it out and thought I'd share for anyone else running into this. It created a config file within the current path under .bundle/config, which contained a line reading: BUNDLE_PATH: foobar.
To fix it, I just did:
rm -rf .bundle

I am trying to install jekyll.
I run gem install bundler jekyll
After installing gems I run bundle init and get
bash: bundle: command not found
How can I fix it?
You can get a gem's directory using gem which. For example:
$ gem which jekyll
/home/username/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.6.4/gems/jekyll-4.0.0/lib/jekyll.rb
Then append the directory to your PATH:
$ export PATH="$PATH:/home/username/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.6.4:"
The reason why you are getting "command not found" after installing gems is because they were installed in a location that your bash shell does not yet know about. The way the computer looks up commands is by looking at the PATH, which is a list of folders where the computer should look for commands, such as bundle. The previous answer is on the right track, but unfortunately, the gem which command will only tell you about locations that are already in your PATH, which might not include the folder where bundler and jekyll were installed.
The location of the gems depends on how you installed Ruby, so without knowing that, I can't tell you what to put in your PATH. What I can tell you is that what you are experiencing is unfortunately very common, but there is a fix. To avoid needless frustration and to help people like you, I wrote a script that will automatically set up a proper Ruby environment for you, including updating your PATH and everything else that is necessary to be able to install gems and use them right away without getting any errors. Check out the links at the bottom of this answer to learn more about my script.
In the meantime, I can make some guesses and see if I can help. If you installed Ruby with Homebrew, then this should fix it:
Run this command:
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin:/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
And then quit and restart your terminal. Now you should be able to run bundle init.
If you are reading this and you are not the original poster, you might need to replace .bash_profile in the command above with .zshrc depending on which shell you are using. You can tell by looking at the error. If you are using zsh, it will say zsh: bundle: command not found.

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 $(whoami) /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.3.0/*
After that I install jekyll and bundler carefully following the instruction. And install the packages that the theme needs manually through gem install, which you can find at the Gemfile. I got the problem of jekyll-sitemap similar as this, I followed the method to install pygment.rb through gem install pygments.rb. And now my site is locally work.
I have installed Cocoapods on OS X Mavericks using the --user-install option (to avoid having to use sudo for the installation) following the instructions at http://guides.cocoapods.org/using/getting-started.html#getting-started . I have also created a .profile file in my home directory with the following:
export GEM_HOME=$HOME/gems
export PATH=$GEM_HOME/bin:$PATH
Cocoapods successfully installs, but I am unable to run the pod command.
When running it from the command line it says No such file or directory. From what I understand, it should be installed into the /Users/me/gems/bin folder. However, this folder does not exist at all - the only Ruby related folder in my home directory is /Users/me/.gem.
I have tried running /Users/me/.gem/ruby/2.0.0/gems/cocoapods-0.29.0/bin/pod but that results in the following error:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:45:in `require': cannot load such file -- bundler/setup (LoadError)
from /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:45:in `require'
from .gem/ruby/2.0.0/gems/cocoapods-0.29.0/bin/pod:14:in `<main>'
...but from what I understand, I shouldn't be running it from that location directly.
Any assistance for a Cocoapods newbie appreciated!
So after a lot of research and trying different things I have managed to get this working. I am not quite sure what eventually fixed the problem, or whether it was a combination of things, but for anyone else encountering this same problem here's what I did:
Installed the Xcode command line tools for Mavericks. The option to install this is no longer available in Xcode 5, so you need to download them from https://developer.apple.com/downloads . Some people seem to say they are already installed as part of Xcode 5 from the Mac App Store, whereas others say you need to manually install them. Either way, I figured that installing them again won't hurt.
The error message above talked about not being able to load bundler/setup. So, I (re?)installed the bundler ruby gem gem install bundler --user-install. Interestingly, when I then attempted to run the /Users/me/.gem/ruby/2.0.0/gems/cocoapods-0.29.0/bin/pod command again I got a different error: /Users/me/.gem/ruby/2.0.0/gems/cocoapods-0.29.0/Gemfile not found.
What was really handy is that after the installation of bundler a message appeared saying /Users/me/.gem/ruby/2.0.0/bin in your PATH, gem executables will not run. So, I checked out the contents of that folder and it contains the pod executable! Adding it to the PATH would certainly be handy, but I just ran it directly with the full path (after changing to my Xcode project folder containing the Podfile): /Users/me/.gem/ruby/2.0.0/bin/pod install and it all works!
When I ran pod install for the first time it showed a message saying Setting up CocoaPods master repo and stayed there for quite some time - I thought it had actually hung. However, it eventually completed. If you are unsure whether it is doing anything, or has hung, do ls -la ~/.cocoapods/repos/master/.git/objects/pack/ and look at the time modified/size of the file it is downloading (thanks to this comment for the hint).
Another tip for new players - when I tried to install a pod (in my case, BlocksKit) I got a message saying [!] The platform of the target Pods (iOS 4.3) is not compatible with BlocksKit (2.1.0) which has a minimum requirement of OS X 10.7 - iOS 5.0. This was a surprising message, since my project targets iOS 7.0. Apparently you don't need to specify the platform anymore, so I entirely removed the platform line from the Podfile and it all works.
Hope that this helps other people just getting started with CocoaPods!
After installing Mavericks, I got error with already installed cocoapods. So I ran this command to install the new updated cocoapods version, and it works now.
sudo gem install cocoapods
Thanks to the pointers in these answers, I found that the instructions for installing CocoaPods provided on the CocoaPods web site are incorrect, regarding the contents of the .profile file, specifically the path.
As Skoota noted in the question, the path $GEM_HOME/bin does not exist. A comment by Videre gives the important clue: the correct path is $GEM_HOME/ruby/2.0.0/bin.
The correct .profile contents, which works for me at least, is:
export GEM_HOME=$HOME/.gem
export PATH=$GEM_HOME/ruby/2.0.0/bin:$PATH
It is also worth noting that you must quit and relaunch the Terminal application for changes to the .profile file to take effect.
add:
export COCOAPODS_NO_BUNDLER=1
to your .zprofile or .bash_profile
FWIW - I ran into very similar problems. None of the above helped me so maybe others could benefit from my process.
Eventually just ran sudo gem uninstall cocoapods, deleting everything that I did before.
Followed the steps for creating the .profile file
For good measure, closed Terminal and rebooted everything.
Ran gem install cocoapods which somehow didn't run into errors this time
Checked the install by running gem which cocoapods which fortunately returned the correct path
ran pod setup which didn't raise any errors again .
Not entirely sure what actually worked and what didn't but maybe someone will find this useful.
I use homebrew to install cocapods
First install homebrew (paste this code in terminal and hit enter)
$ /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"
Second enter this
$ brew install cocoapods
I'm on Mac OSX Snow Leopard. I tried to post a similar question to the RVM Google group but it did not seem to get posted.
I'm worried that I've done something fundamentally wrong with my RVM install that's causing these errors, that seems to be related to paths, at each step of the way. Have any of you seen this behavior before?
I started to teach myself Rails programming as of about two months ago with a working environment of Ruby 1.9.1 and Rails 3.0.3, based on a hivelogic install tutorial that had me modify my ~/.profile file and install the relevant bits to ~/usr/local/src/. For reference, the line in my ~/.profile file was this when I installed RVM, if that makes any difference:
export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/local/src:$PATH"
In my terminal I installed RVM as a user using the standard user github bash script.
I tried to install Ruby 1.9.2, which kept running into a weird error about a libfile somewhere. After much Googling I found someone on Stack Overflow that recommended renaming the ~/usr/local directory while performing the Ruby install -- I did this, and the install complete.
Then I did gem install rails and tried to do bundle install in my app, which gave an error when trying to install the SQLite3 gem (even though I already had SQLite3 installed and working). Again, I spent a day Googling this and eventually found "Unable to install sqlite3-ruby gem" that said if I used Macports to sudo port install sqlite3 it would work.
I tried that from the base directory, and Macports did its thing but it didn't fix the problem. Then I did the same thing from my app directory and it fixed the SQLite3 error I was getting.
Now I am able to run rails server and rails generate again, which is great, but then I tried to "annotate" my new model, and I get this error: http://pastie.org/1481570
I have not yet solved this issue, and have looked at many threads of similar issues. This, for example, did not solve my problem: https://github.com/james2m/annotate_models/commit/5997da9692c9b222e8d1be22dfad6ed8638c16a1
I even tried copying my source code directly into the rvm/user/ directory in case that relative path was causing problems, but it doesn't seem to have fixed anything. Maybe I need to uninstall RVM and re-install it as root instead of a user-level thing?
What do you think is the best way to get annotate to work and hopefully get RVM to play nice with my gems going forward?
I'm unfortunately REALLY new to terminal, code, etc, so any help would be much appreciated.
On Snow Leopard you should modify either ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile, preferably the later. Also, RVM will not need anything in ~/usr/local since it's entirely self-contained in ~/.rvm.
RVM uses a nice little shell function to sense the needed directories and desired default Ruby. I suspect either the instructions you followed were very out of date, or poor recommendations. The current RVM installation requests you add:
[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && . "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" # This loads RVM into a shell session.
to your ~/.bash_profile
The RVM site has lots of troubleshooting tips for things like MySQL. I'd strongly recommend backing out of the things those other tutorials had you do, and refer to the instructions on RVM's site. It is very easy to get things working right if you do it the RVM-way.
Download and install Apple's latest version of XCode from their Developer site if you haven't already. There have been some broken versions shipped on the DVDs.
Install. In particular follow the "Post Installation" section.
Following that, do whatever rvm notes says to do as far as libraries. Following that, you should be able to use rvm info to gather useful info about your installation. It is your best friend.
Database integration will point you to how to fix MySQL's wagon.
RVM development happens fast. Keep it updated, at least once a week using rvm get head.
At that point you should be in a good place to start reinstalling gems.
I have a machine at work from wich I'd like to run a script that gathers some information about other machines. I want to do it in Ruby, since it's what I know best, but I've ran into some problems, all apparently due to the same reason: I don't have root access in this machine.
So what I did was: Download ruby source, configure (with --prefix pointing to somewhere under my home dir), make, make install. Alright, ruby runs fine. Then I did the same with rubygems and installed it. Ok as well, untill I went to install my first gem.
I downloaded the gem package (sigh, lots of firewalls, can't just "gem install" something remote), net-ssh, and tried to install it locally. Got the infamous "no such file to load -- zlib". Clues about this led nowhere, so I tried the next approach: getting net-ssh's source. When it tries to require 'openssl' (or when I try it from irb), I get "no such file to load -- openssl".
All of these problems, apparently, could be solved by apt-getting or rpm installing, or whatever. Only problem is: I can't!
Any suggestions as to how I might proceed?
Thanks for the help,
Marcelo.
Closing this now.
I had to ask someone with root access to install zlib-devel and openssl-devel (I'm on RHEL). Couldn't make it otherwise.
I'm guessing there's probably a way of using the stuff inside said packages without installing them as root, but I couldn't do it.
Did you try Ruby RVM?
You can download, compile and install a full-featured Ruby version on your home environment.
I recently did the same. The trick that worked for me is NOT to use a --prefix flag when you install rubygems.
