After installing ruby gems, running the new gem returns “Could not find” errors

问题

Fresh Ubuntu 10.04 install:

I'm having some trouble getting my gem install process to play nicely. Any time I install a gem, it goes through a nice, straightforward process with no problems:

$ gem install rails
Successfully installed rails-3.2.2
1 gem installed

And then to verify the version, perhaps a simple "rails -v"? Nope:

$ rails -v
/home/pragone/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p125/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/dependency.rb:247:in `to_specs': Could not find railties (>= 0) amongst [bigdecimal-1.1.0, io-console-0.3, json-1.5.4, minitest-2.5.1, rake-0.9.2.2, rdoc-3.9.4] (Gem::LoadError)
from /home/pragone/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p125/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/dependency.rb:256:in `to_spec'
from /home/pragone/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p125/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems.rb:1210:in `gem'
from /home/pragone/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/bin/rails:18:in `<main>'

So let's make sure railties is installed:

$ gem install railties
Successfully installed railties-3.2.2
1 gem installed

And try to get the version of rails again:

$ rails -v
/home/pragone/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p125/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/dependency.rb:247:in `to_specs': Could not find railties (>= 0) amongst [bigdecimal-1.1.0, io-console-0.3, json-1.5.4, minitest-2.5.1, rake-0.9.2.2, rdoc-3.9.4] (Gem::LoadError)
from /home/pragone/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p125/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/dependency.rb:256:in `to_spec'
from /home/pragone/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p125/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems.rb:1210:in `gem'
from /home/pragone/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/bin/rails:18:in `<main>'

This happens with nearly every gem I install. I tried searching for some sort of documentation of how things are installed with gem, but couldn't find anything. It seems as though some gems are installed in one location, and some in another, and one of those locations is not in my path. Any ideas what's going on here?

Additionally, with the above listed PATH, I get this when trying to run rails:

The program 'rails' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
sudo apt-get install rails

However, the aforementioned errors occurred when I was hacking around and added these to my PATH:

/home/pragone/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/bin
/home/pragone/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/gems

I've tried re-running ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm, but it doesn't seem like it's adding the correct paths to my PATH. I've also done some picking around on a working-install (my macbook pro, running os x 10.7), and verified that ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm is adding items to my PATH in the working install, but not on the ubuntu box.

which rails: Hacked PATH:

$ which rails
/home/pragone/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/bin/rails

which rails: fresh PATH: (no response; presumably not found)

$ which rails
$

回答1:

Seems the missing link was

$ rvm use ruby-1.9.3-p125 --default

Seems to have fixed it.

PS: Thanks for looking at this. For your entertainment, if you didn't see it on HN yet (it's python, but still a good chuckle): https://gist.github.com/289467

Try this, it works for me:

gem update --system
