I'm taking a course on Ruby on Rails. In the video the instructor recommends that you use
railsinstaller.org to download Rails instead of rubyonrails.org . But the site isn't there.
According to whois, it is inactive.
(When I investigated I got farther, but then got SSL errors. See solution below.)
My instructor said to go to this website for instructions. This solution also works if you are getting SSL errors when trying to use Ruby On Rails ( See Note1 and Note2 below first):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iF8caVyDi5g&list=PLCC34OHNcOtrk3BDsfZwf4GattdLoKCOF&index=1&t=839s
Note1:
... get installer from here (If you have Git already, unclick that box.):
https://web.archive.org/web/20210306035811/http://railsinstaller.org/en
The idea is to remove ruby and rails from your machine. (Make sure you have node and yarn.) Run the installer. Then install newest stable versions of Ruby and Rails. Installing Ruby from rubyinstaller.org
Note2: Instead of using "gem install rails" command as Youtube video says, Do the following:
(thanks to Kingston Peng for this process)
"Run the command:
$ gem install gemName --source http://rubygems.org
it worked for me. I got: "1 gem installed".
So I tried:
$ gem install rails --source http://rubygems.org
", said Kingston Peng.
It worked! "37 gems installed"!
The GoRails setup guide is a good resource for this. This will show you how to download the latest versions of Ruby and Rails.
I'm working on the same course by the same instructor. Also, railsinstaller.org isn't working, so, you may use the link mentioned below to directly install the same version of ruby rails.

I'm trying to initialize a new rails app on windows, and running rails new <appname> generates everything up to vendor/assets/stylesheets/.keep, but when bundle install is run, rails generates this error:
Checksum of /versions does not match the checksum provided by server! Something is wrong.
I'm not sure what's causing this, as I've done nothing to rails itself. Any help is appreciated.
Edit: If it's an error caused by windows being finicky, I have the option of moving to Linux, but I'd like to know what's wrong first.
I had the same issue using windows, and was able to solve it by uninstalling bundler and installing an older version.
rails new <appname>
gem uninstall bundler
gem install bundler -v 1.9
cd <appname>
bundle install
That did it for me!
In my case there was a *.pre.1 version and I chose to uninstall that particular version and then "bundle install" worked.
Try removing your ruby cache folder and then try again. So for example if you are on Linux machine and you are using rbenv and say ruby 2.1.5 folder. Your path would be similar to something like (Not sure where on windows ruby is stored):
~/.rbenv/versions/2.1.5/lib/ruby/gems/2.1.0/cache/
Removing this folder and trying bundle install again should resolve the issue.
It will be great, if you move to a Linux machine.
On windows it's a hell to pay in my 5 years of experience what i have learned is not to mess with (ror) or (rs) in windows. here's a cheeky thing you can do an easy way. I believe you are using github as repo, as a editor you are using sublime if thats is a case open your gemfile you will see check the image or
try to clear cache on your server or update the gems.
I had this same exact error and solved it the following way. I think you are missing the ruby DevKit being installed.
Go here http://rubyinstaller.org/downloads/ and download/install the latest 32-bit Ruby version (as of writing this 2.2.4, you will need it for the web-console gem)
Make sure to add your ruby\bin folder to your environmental path variable
The trick is hidden near the bottom-left of the same page under the "Development Kit" section. You need to download and extract the right one into a permanent location (as of writing this for 32-bit - DevKit-mingw64-32-4.7.2-20130224-1151-sfx.exe)
After extracting the files, go into the main directory and run "ruby dk.rb init" followed by "ruby dk.rb install" (More information can be found here
That fixed it for me and i can now fully install with no checksum issues
This problem began when i tried to run my app. I wrote rails s and the console said me Could not find sdoc-0.4.1 in any of the sources Run bundle install to install missing gems. Then i wrote bundle install and the message that appeared was Checksum of /versions does not match the checksum provided by server! Something is wrong.
I solve this problem following this steps:
Wrote bundle install
The console said me Could not find sdoc-0.4.1 in any of the sources
Then i reinstalled this gem with gem install sdoc -v 0.4.1
I tried again to write rails s and it's was solved.

I am super, super new at programming and I have been trying to get everything set-up on my computer. I have installed RailsInstaller, go to >railsinstaller_demo, and type in rails s. I get the following error though could not find gem 'uglifier <>= 1.0.3> x86-mingw32'
I looked through the forum and found how to do a gem list and i noticed it was not there. I then went to gembundler and ran $ gem install bundler. I tried again but it did not work.
I am sure the answer is on this site, but i am so new that i see all these lines of code I actually have no idea where to type it in.. I am running Windows 7.
thanks for taking the time to help out a real beginner.
Have you gone to the $ railsinstaller_demo directory and run the bundle install command? This will install the gem dependencies for the application; you will not be able to run the server until you've bundled the gems. Additionally, if you're still having issues with the uglifier gem, go ahead and remove the line in the Gemfile and then run bundle install
If you need further help with the Command Prompt, you an find out more at http://bit.ly/ZajVeW.

I'm attempting to follow the Hartl Rails Tutorial, and having trouble with the bundler gem.
When using the commands 'bundle install' or 'bundle update' I get the following output:
Fetching source index from https://rubygems.org/
Could not fetch specs from https://rubygems.org/
I've searched for this output, but did not find many related issues online.
Maybe I have another gem that is interrupting bundler? I have little experience with rails at this point.
source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'rails', '3.2.12'
group :development do
gem 'sqlite3', '1.3.5'
end
# Gems used only for assets and not required
# in production environments by default.
group :assets do
gem 'sass-rails', '3.2.5'
gem 'coffee-rails', '3.2.2'
gem 'uglifier', '1.2.3'
end
gem 'jquery-rails', '2.0.2'
The solution for me was two parts: I changed https to http, and that temporarily solved the issue. The second issue was that I think I had a bad install of ruby 2.0.0 even though I was using a fresh install of ruby 1.9.3. So I reinstalled ruby 2.0.0, and I could use bundle install with https.
Just in case none of the above satisfies the next intrepid explorer, I thought I'd drop here that after I spent 4 hours on this doing variants of the search that landed me here, I finally discovering that IPV6 was the culprit, after finding this specific thread on help.rubygems.org. Solution? this (Fedora, Linux):
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=1
set up a shell script to flip IPV6 on and off so I could run a command without it, and now everything runs peachy.
I had the same issue. The only working solution I found was to force http instead of https in Gemfile:
source 'http://rubygems.org'
you can try the following, if in windows:
set HTTP_PROXY= <your proxy address without http://>
set HTTPS_PROXY=%HTTP_PROXY%
For eg:
HTTP_PROXY=mycompany.myproxy.com:8080
HTTPS_PROXY=%HTTP_PROXY%
Worked for me
It can be temporary network issue as well.
Try restarting network services using command
service network restart
If its *nix machine.
I had the same issue using ruby-2.0.0-p247 on OS X 10.8.5.
Make sure the first line in Gemfile is using https://
source 'https://rubygems.org'
I reinstalled that version of ruby.
rvm reinstall ruby-2.0.0
Ruby was upgraded ruby-2.0.0-p598 (version depends on latest patch).
bundle then worked without error although all the gems were reinstalled.
Mine was just a simple network issue, just restart pc / router
The other reason causing such that issues is the fact if you are behind proxy server. I describe here solution, maybe it will be usefull for someone else. :)
In case that you did not know Login/pass for yours proxy, and meet this issues you could firstly check if you need to (re)install anything, by command:
C:\...> bundle check
Resolving dependencies...
The Gemfile's dependencies are satisfied
If you get other respons then above, you could find properly gems in properly versions here (rubygems.org), then install it (from the directory with downloaded gem) by command:
gem install <gem-name> --locally
Use wget to see if you can reach the domain
wget http://rubygems.org/latest_specs.4.8.gz
If this fails then try the following.
Edit your /etc/resolv.conf file and add these lines near the top to use Google's name servers
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4
I had this issue while working in Cloud 9. After trying several 'bundle install' and sending an email to c9 support(no reply) I was able to get it working by killing all the processes and doing a hard-restart of the IDE.
Do this by clicking directly on the little bar-graphs at the top of the right-hand side that show CPU, Memory, Disk. Then click on the process list, select them all, and force kill. Then exit out of the process list. Click on the bar-graphs again, and this time click 'Restart'.
After this I was able to run bundle with no problems.
Either with http or https did not work.
After I disabled the IP
v6, it worked
https://support.purevpn.com/how-to-disable-ipv6-linuxubuntu
Adding variable for proxy worked fine.
Additionally if you are using Bitnami redmine like me you can add that into setenv.bat then when you start command line with Bitnami Redmine short cut it will be automatically added to your environment.
You can find this under Bitnami installation folder.
If you are using Cloud9, just restart (command R) and try again
Sometimes it happens due to proxy you are using.
I tried to resolve this by using a connection without proxy and all worked perfectly fine.
Then try:
bundle update
And then go for
bundle install
For me, restarting the computer worked. I had already reinstalled ruby, updated bundler, removed 's' https:// but none of them worked!
A very simple solution I've used recently to overcome Bundler::HTTPError Could not fetch specs from https://rubygems.org/ which doesn't require you to disable IPV6 globally in your system:
ping -4 rubygems.org - to get an IPV4 address
Add the following line to your /etc/hosts file (use whatever IP address from the previous command output cause it might change):
151.101.129.227 rubygems.org
I just had to restart my wifi and it started working.
CHange your source form https to http after run
sudo bundle update
sudo bundle install
In my case the source of the problem was VPN. Disconnecting from it helped to resolve the issue.
I am having a big issue with updating my gems on a new production server I am building.
I am running it on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
I have rubygems version 1.8.24, ruby version 1.9.3-p125, rails version 3.2.3.
Whenever i run the command gem update or gem update --system, it took hours for it to complete the first time.
Any ideas as to why this would be slow?
I am trying to see if its something with our firewall; but when I watch the traffic coming from that specific server, I am not seeing any deny messages.
Below i have added the command line view when i did sudo gem install rails -V
This is not all the code it is just the last 1000 lines since i had a limit on my terminal window.
Hopefully this provides some more insight into what may be happening
gem install rails verbose code
