I'm trying to setup my first RubyMine project (previously I used an IDE where the environment comes fully setup for Rails).
Upon cloning a repo and opening, I'm unable to install the necessary gems, and getting an error.
40:232: execution error: Don't run Bundler as root. Bundler can ask
for sudo if it is needed, and installing your bundle as root will
break this application for all non-root users on this machine.
Reproducing the error:
There is a popup when opening the project.
RubyMine has detected that some of the gems required for 'job_tracker_1' are not installed
I check run with sudo, and click install missing gems.
Then I receive an error (shown above).
Alternatively:
If I run bundle in the terminal, the response is bash: bundle: command not found.
Can anyone adivse how to get around this issue?
There is no need to install gems with super user access that is with sudo, if necessary it might prompt for that.
The reason is installing with sudo will install it for all users as root. If multiple people are using your machine this might cause weird behavior. Even though if you're the single user its recommended to install gems local to your home folder usually.
Uncheck run with sudo and click install missing gems

Summarizing my problem
Details about my goal:
I want to install an older(stable) version of Rails; specifically 5.2.5.
Describing the expected and actual results:
I expect my Mac running Big Sur v11.3.1 (apple m1) to install Rails successfully.
The actual result is (presumably) a permission/ownership based error:
$ gem install rails -v 5.2.5
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno::EACCES)
Permission denied # rb_sysopen - /Users/ayylmao/.rbenv/versions/2.7.2/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/gems/concurrent-ruby-1.1.9/CHANGELOG.md
Obviously I see it's something to do with concurrent-ruby-1.1.9...though I continue to get this error with other gems throughout my efforts to install rails on this new-ish computer.
Describing what I've tried:
Both solutions here - no help
i've read this question - no help
I've read this question, but it's old
I've begun to explore my PATH:
/Users/ayylmao/.rbenv/shims:/Users/ayylmao/.rbenv/shims:/opt/homebrew/bin:/opt/homebrew/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
and I've uninstalled previous installations of Rails (and railties), as well as removed rbenv and re-installed (via the usual for me, Homebrew)
I've run brew doctor, i've updated gems with gem update, i've gotten rid of seemingly superfluous gems with for i in gem list --no-versions; do gem uninstall -aIx $i; done.
Obviously, i'm at my wits end here...
My best guess
looking at my $PATH it seems super "sus"...looks like there's some redundancy...but I'm not certain how to troubleshoot it or if that's the correct place to be looking.
I've dropped most details about my system and environment throughout my question, but here's an agregate:
MacOS BigSur 11.3.1 (perhaps something to do with Apple's SIP?) smh
zsh
homebrew
rbenv
ruby 2.7.2
stating my question without any ambiguity
How do I troubleshoot this error "Permission denied # rb_sysopen" via closer inspection of my $PATH? And is that the most likely culprit?
What steps would I need to take to go completely "nuclear"?
PS - full disclosure...yes I have used sudo in some instance of installing rails...though i've quickly uninstalled those versions shortly after installation. I apologize for the irresponsibility. I was not prepared for the Apple SIP and panicked months ago....Also, ZSH was a change for me as well.
It seems like your ruby installation through rbenv was made via sudo, which will create gem structure with root privileges.
So, when you perform a gem install rails from a regular user, you won't have the privileges to write into gems directory, raising the permission denied error.
You can confirm the permission by running:
ls -la /Users/ayylmao/.rbenv/versions/2.7.2/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/gems/
Try to reinstall your ruby with you own user (without sudo) and the installation of rails or other gems will sould be fine.
I am trying to get started with Rails, following the guide at https://guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started.html, but I'm running into problems.
I've got ruby, sqlite3, and rails installed as required, and then run
rails new blog
as indicated in section 3.2 of the tutorial. I get an error saying "Your user account isn't allowed to install to the system RubyGems.", but I can install the gems into ./vendor/bundle, as suggested (I don't have full root access on this machine).
So far, so good. But then
rails webpacker:install
is run by the process, which gives me the following message:
Yarn not installed. Please download and install Yarn from https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/install/
Of course, I went to that website and checked the instructions for my Fedora system and tried to follow them. The problem is again: I have limited root access, I cannot run the suggested commands; in particular, I cannot write to /etc/yum.repos.d/yarn.repo.
I also googled a bit, and what I could do is following https://developer.fedoraproject.org/tech/languages/nodejs/nodejs.html to install Node.js and Yarn (including setting the alias yarn for nodejs-yarn). But still, running
rails webpacker:install
says that Yarn is not installed.
Any help is greatly appreciated, I have to admit that I don't really know what I'm doing. Thanks!
On linux, the sudo command is the intended way to temporarily elevate user privledges.
wget https://yarnpkg.com/install.sh
sudo ./install.sh
That should get Yarn installed for you. The other problem it seems your having is installing ruby gems. You should be able to write to the vendor directory of your application by default, so make sure that you're doing this project in your /home/<MY USER NAME HERE> directory.
I have a Windows 2012 server that is on an internal network. I used Railsinstaller to put the basic framework on the system. Rails new doesn't work when I reach the bundler section since I can't reach the net.
I have used "gem install rails -i repo --no-rdoc --no-ri" on a net accessible system then placed the gems on my server and ran "gem install --force --local *.gem".
Then "rails new D:\DTS_WEB --edge" and now fail at "unable to connect to github.com". Trying to start the rails server fails telling me that nothing has been checked out.
I modified my gems file with
"gem 'rails', path: '....\Ruby2.2.0\lib\ruby\gems\'" but it still tries github.
I installed git with Railsinstaller along with rails. How can I get past this last obstacle and force everything to use local resources?
Is it possible to build everything on the net accessible node and just copy it into place on the server to use? My first attempt at that failed.
On a machine that has a network connection, you can install your app's gems to a directory within the project using --path:
$ bundle install --path=vendor/bundle
Then, you can copy the project folder (along with all the gems in vendor/bundle) to your internal machine.
So I am trying to deploy a Rails app on my web hosting service. I have developed an app locally, but this is the first time I have tried to get it to work on another server. My service provider is Blue Host and I am on their most basic shared hosting plan. Just as a test, I created a fresh application on the server, and everything ran fine. However, whenever I add any gem to the Gemfile and run 'bundle install', I get this error:
sudo: unable to stat /etc/sudoers: No such file or directory
sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting
sudo: unable to initialize policy plugin
Gem::Exception: Cannot load gem at [/usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.9.3/cache/rake-10.4.2.gem] in /home/user/application
An error occurred while installing rake (10.4.2), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install rake -v '10.4.2'` succeeds before bundling.
Whenever I run gem install rake -v '10.4.2' the gem installs fine.
I get similar errors that mention 'sudo' when i try to run other commands as well.
I am not quite sure what this error means. Do I not have the required permissions on my server?
Always use a continuous deployment/integration.
Capistrano does part of the job. It is very simple, you develop you application offline, push to a remote repository, like BitBucket or Github, and then Capistrano takes care of cloning the remote repository to your server (you can also have many), restarting services etc.
If you want to go a step forward you can use continuous integration, so when you push to remote tests will automatically be performed and if they pass your application will be deployed.
This is a basic introduction on how deployment works, you can check online, there are plenty of resources about how to deploy rails.
Go with root user
su root
root$ /etc/
I really appreciate if one can provide some insight for installing ruby on rails 3.x framework to a computer without internet connection.
All the tutorials or explanations seem to assume that there is always an internet connection. Is there simple way to download a bundle with all the dependencies included and simply install the bundle.
Thanks in advance
Finally. The complete list of Gems that you need to download manually, in order to install Rails in Offline mode (or behind a proxy that prevents your "gem" commands from working).
This list assumes that you already have the following things (Windows 7):
Ruby 1.9.2
RubyGems 1.8.24
DevKit
THE LIST.
Go to rubygems.org and use the Search function to download each one of the following Gems. You don't need to type the complete name with version numbers and stuff. For example, just "actionmailer" will work and will find the latest version).
Each gem page shows you the command line you have to type when installing it normally in a computer that isn't behind a proxy. Ignore it and just click the download link.
actionmailer-3.2.6.gem
actionpack-3.2.6.gem
activerecord-3.2.6.gem
activeresource-3.2.6.gem
activesupport-3.2.6.gem
rake-0.9.2.2.gem
i18n-0.6.0.gem
multi_json-1.3.6.gem
activemodel-3.2.6.gem
arel-3.0.2.gem
tzinfo-0.3.33.gem
builder-3.0.0.gem
erubis-2.7.0.gem
journey-1.0.4.gem
rack-1.4.1.gem
rack-cache-1.2.gem
rack-test-0.6.1.gem
sprockets-2.1.3.gem
hike-1.2.1.gem
tilt-1.3.3.gem
mail-2.4.4.gem
mime-types-1.19.gem
treetop-1.4.10.gem
polyglot-0.3.3.gem
rails-3.2.6.gem
bundler-1.1.4.gem
railties-3.2.6.gem
rack-ssl-1.3.2.gem
rdoc-3.12.gem
thor-0.15.3.gem
JSON-1.7.3.gem
(31 files total)
Just keep in mind that the versions may change. I did this in June 2012 and those were the versions that worked for me.
Copy all those files to the Ruby installation dir.
Then, open a CMD console.
cd \
cd <RubyInstallDir>
gem install rails-3.2.6.gem
Installation should run normally.
It is possible that some dependencies need a different version.
In that case, the error message will show you the right version. So you just need to download the version from rubygems.org (there is a list of old versions in the gem's page) and run the gem install command again.
I hope this can help.
You can use bundler to achive that. Bundler accepts the path where you can specify the location for the gems to be installed. Run the following command where you have internet connection. It will download all the dependencies and pack them into the specified folder.
bundle install --path gems # 'gems' is the folder present in Rails.root
Now that all the dependencies are within the project, you can copy the project to the machine where you don't have internet connection. From now on use the commands like:
bundle exec rails server
bundle exec rails console
Note that you have to install the bundler gem manually in the target machine.
I know that this question refers to Rails 3, but I created PortableRails exactly because of this (which has recently been updated to support Rails 4). Just make sure that you run bundle --local instead of just bundle (which is what the new-action tries to perform).
