rbenv Permission denied with Assetic on Ubuntu - ruby-on-rails

I struggled for hours trying to have Assetic with Sass and Compass working on my production server.
The error is:
sh: 1: /root/.rbenv/shims/ruby: Permission denied
This is because my rbenv instalation is under the /root directory so Assetic doesn't have the permision to use it.
I've checked similar issues:
"Rbenv permission denied issue"
"rbenv: Permission Denied"
"Should rbenv be installed system-wide, or at a user level?"
but they didn't help.
I'm using Apache so I guess the default user is "www-data".
As explained in one of the above questions, I tried to grant www-data the permission in /root but either this didn't work or I did it wrong.
sudo chown -R www-data ~/.rbenv
This is the complete error:
[exception] 500 | Internal Server Error | Assetic\Exception\FilterException
[message] An error occurred while running:
'/root/.rbenv/shims/ruby' '/usr/local/bin/compass' 'compile' '/var/www/myapp/app/cache/dev' '--boring' '--images-dir' '/var/www/myapp/app/../web/uploads/img' '--config' '/var/www/myapp/app/cache/dev/assetic_compassu3IAzJ' '--sass-dir' '' '--css-dir' '' '/var/www/formation-hero/app/cache/dev/assetic_compassPbwM3H.scss'
Error Output:
sh: 1: /root/.rbenv/shims/ruby: Permission denied
I'm using Apache on Ubuntu 14.04
# which ruby

# rbenv -v
rbenv 1.0.0-14-gc388331
Symfony 2.7 is installed under /var/www/myapp/
What should I do to either give right to Apache to use the /root repository or, maybe better, how do I install rbenv for my Symfony2 project?
Everything is working fine on my localhost with OS X.

I do not have experience with the said components but assuming that the user who is executing the file is www-data it might be an issue with the permissions of the /root/.rbend/shims/ruby file.
Run the command sudo chmod o+x /root/.rbenv/shims/ruby wich will give execute permissions to the owner of the file, presumably www-data since you ran the chown command.
If it still doesn't work run the command ls -l /root/.rbenv/shims/ruby, the 4th character of the first column should be x, indicating the owner has execution permissions.
For more info on linux file permissions check "Understanding and Using File Permissions".

How do I remove Permission denied # rb_sysopen - Gem install error?

I am trying to install create a new app in Ruby on Rails and I cannot get passed this error:
$ gem install pg
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno::EACCES)
Permission denied # rb_sysopen - /Users/stormyramsey/.rbenv/versions/2.3.2/lib/ruby/gems/2.3.0/gems/pg-0.21.0/.gemtest
Its a permissions issue. You could fix it with this:
sudo chown -R $(whoami) /Library/Ruby/Gems/*
or possibly in your case
sudo chown -R $(whoami) /Users/stormyramsey/.rbenv/versions/2.3.2/lib/ruby/gems/*
What does this do:
This is telling the system to change the files to change the ownership to the current user. Something must have gotten messed up when something got installed. Usually this is because there are multiple accounts or users are using sudo to install when they should not always have to.
It's likely there's a permissions problem somewhere along the .rbenv path. You might try turning on write privileges for your user with:
$ chmod -R +w ~/.rbenv
That will recursively (-R) change the file mode (chmod) to write permission (+w) for all files and directories under your user's .rbenv path. There's no particular reason for not having files set to write.
For Mac M1 systems try,
Allowing full disk access to terminal.
Apple->systemPreferences->Security&Privacy->privacy(Tab)->'+' button, check in Terminal application.
Then Restart terminal
2.Try using,
sudo chflags noschg
Delete the pod folder, reinstall it again. If it doesn't work use this command:
sudo pod install --allow-root
It really doesn't matter on mac how you configure your eyaml create the dir and config manually, add some public key location to it, and its works just fine after adding full disk access to the terminal as Kewin suggested ^ ^. Thumbs up.
No need to change permission, just export GEM_HOME:
export GEM_HOME="$HOME/.gem"
please run:
sudo gem install pg

I can't install gems with rvm

I'm new to ruby version manager and when i tried to install rails after installing it, I get this error . I tried to search other SO questions as well but didn't want to re-install ruby version manager. Even though when I try sudo for installation, it doesn't work.
The error I get is as follows:"ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno::EACCES)Permission denied # dir_s_mkdir - /home/sunil/.gem/specs"
I would do this:
ls -ld /home/sunil/.gem/specs to check that folder permissions.
whoami to compare current user with /home/sunil/.gem/specs permissions
Maybe chown -R sunil:sunil ~/.gem to change owner in case .gem directory is not owned by sunil.
Maybe chmod -R u+rwX,go+rX,go-w ~/.gem to change permissions.

Permission denied. Rails could not complete the installation

I tried to install Ruby on Rails in my user account. Atraves user terminal, do the following.
I find that the minimum requirements are met
I write the command line to install Rails (poor man).
I get the following error message at the beginning of the installation process:
Searching for binary rubies, this might take some time.
Checking requirements for debian.

Maybe your problem is related with sudoers file.
try edit this file:
vim /etc/sudoers
in this file should be your user name with permissions. For example:
your_user_name ALL=(ALL) ALL
try to add if it don't exists:)
I solved the problem by reinstalling ruby separately with the version I wanted to use.
Then install rails via gem install rails-v
then clear the gem that made ​​reference to the error and rerun bundle install . Then select the version I wanted to use installing ruby rvm rvm use default -v

"bad interpreter: Permission denied " error while trying to execute rails commands

I am using ubunutu natty narwhal.I had installed ruby,rails,rvm etc.. sometime back and everything was running peacefully.Recently i tried to execute "rails -v" on the command line i get this frustrating error.
roger#roger-Inspiron-1545:~$ rails -v
bash: /home/roger/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p180/bin/rails: /home/roger/.rvm/rubies/ruby- 1.9.2-p180/bin/ruby:
bad interpreter: Permission denied
I also get this error for other rails commands i execute
Can someone let me know what the problem is and how i can fix this.
Update:Whereis ruby gives me the this
roger#roger-Inspiron-1545:~$ whereis ruby
ruby: /usr/bin/ruby /usr/bin/ruby1.8 /usr/lib/ruby /usr/share/man/man1/ruby.1.gz
Thanks
run:
ls -l /home/roger/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p180/bin/ruby
The first few characters of the entry should be "-rwx" and you should see your own username as the owner. If you don't see at least the "r" and the "x", run
chmod 755 /home/roger/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p180/bin/ruby
to give the owner read/write/exec and everyone else read/execute.
If you aren't the owner, you'll need to do "sudo chown" to fix that.
I suspect that there's a bigger underlying problem though. If you have other ruby versions installed, switch to them in rvm, type "which ruby" and run "ls -l" on them as well.
Did you do a restore from backup recently? Maybe the permissions weren't correctly restored. Or did you run some kind of script that might've been too aggressive in changing owner or permissions? Or maybe you accidentally did a chmod or chown?
