Installing ruby using RVM fails, without trace

Ok, I installed RVM. I tested using:

type rvm | head -n1

The output: "rvm is a function". So far so good.

Then I tried:

rvm install 1.8.7-p302

All went smoothly, but then:

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

RVM says all went fine through the install... Getting RVM info it says:

$ rvm info

ruby-1.8.7-p302:

Also trying to set a default ruby fails:

$ rvm 1.8.7 --default
ruby ruby-1.8.7-p302 is not installed.
'rvm install ruby-1.8.7-p302'

How could I fix this? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks guys. rvm use ruby-1.8.7 says: warn: ruby ruby-1.8.7-p302 is not installed. To install do: 'rvm install ruby-1.8.7-p302'

Added info:

$ rvm list 

rvm rubies

$ rvm use ruby-1.8.7
warn: ruby ruby-1.8.7-p302 is not installed.
To install do: 'rvm install ruby-1.8.7-p302'

About my .profile, I didn't use it, instead I used . bashrc. This is how it looks like:

# If not running interactively, don't do anything
# [ -z "$PS1" ] && return

if [[ -n "$PS1" ]] ; then

#... all of the original content....

fi

[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"

Ok, at this point I tried moving:

[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"

to my .profile. No luck.

Also I reinstall a ruby, Once again all went smoothly:

$ rvm install 1.8.7-p302

But again doing ruby -v says is not installed...

I missed something, but I cannot figure it out...

I'll help you in #rvm on irc.freenode.net if you are still stuck. I am in there during the day EST.

OK, some deps were broken, that was the problem.

I did:

apt-get install build-essential bison openssl libreadline5 libreadline-dev curl git-core zlib1g zlib1g-dev libssl-dev libsqlite3-0 libsqlite3-dev sqlite3 libxml2-dev

Now rvm is working properly.

Thank u!

It help for me. I add line to end of ~/.bashrc

[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"

and reload bash. Now work

rvm use 1.9.2 --default

ruby -v ruby 1.9.2p180 (2011-02-18 revision 30909) [x86_64-linux]

I actually had the same problem. Turns out I had sudo bash'd into my console which killed it all. Need to install as the user... not under sudo. Nice 3 hours of time wasted! lol.

Pete.

I solved this problem by running:

rvm use ruby-1.8.7-p302
