installing gems using rvm

Question

When trying to install gems using rvm i get this error

$ rvm gem install sproutcore
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Errno::EACCES)
Permission denied - /home         


        

Answer 1

I was having the same problem. I redid this command

user$ source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm

from a new terminal window (as suggested when installing rvm and possibly overlooked when I was installing rvm) and things seemed to be fine after that
