Chapter 2 rails tutorial, I am trying to generate scaffold using:
$ rails generate scaffold User name:string email:string
I am getting the following error:
[NOTE]
You may have encountered a bug in the Ruby interpreter or extension libraries.
Bug reports are welcome.
For details: http://www.ruby-lang.org/bugreport.html
Abort trap: 6
I have tried to find this specific error with the abort trap: 6 on stackOF but can't. I am getting the same issue when I try:
$ bundle exec rake db:migrate
and even when I try to run the rails server
$ rails s
I found some info in the Ruby bug reports # https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8373
it says that I may have older versions of extension libraries for Ruby. How do I get rid of these or clean it up so that I don't keep getting this error?
bus.ruby gives one solution, but being VERY VERY new to this I don't understand it. The following solution is given:
"[BUG] unknown type 0x22" is most probably T_DATA for ruby 1.8.
You have an extension library (or more) for older ruby.
Try otool -L for followings.

Thanks so much for any help with this.
The above comment from user3353784 is correct. I was running ruby 2.2.0 and rails 4.2. The simplified command for newer versions of rvm is:
rvm gemset pristine

Thank you this community for getting me started on the right path. Specifying rails version to use when creating a new application gets me close, but the differing ruby version is what is throwing me off. I'm running into an error after running rails new that I'm not sure where to begin to resolve it. I gather from the error that my command is missing a parameter, but I can't determine what it is.
Any advice?
I would like to create a rails 5.2.6 project and I'm finding consistent responses elsewhere indicating that my approach to getting a rails project created with a specific version is to:
install the rails gem with gem install rails -v 5.2.6
create a new rails project, specifying the rails version with rails _5.2.6 new appName
I think I'm on to it. Did a specific google search for compatibility of Ruby 3 with Rails 5 and appears this is the likely problem.
I've now run 'rvm install 2.7.4' then 'rvm use 2.7.4' but still seems to be using ruby 3 in the command. The new error:
user#ubuntudev:~/railsprojects$ rails _5.2.6_ new rpapitest
/home/user/.rbenv/versions/3.0.0/lib/ruby/3.0.0/rubygems.rb:281:in `find_spec_for_exe': can't find gem railties (= 5.2.6) with executable rails (Gem::GemNotFoundException)

Try with rbenv global 2.7.4 if you have rbenv installed
I'm relatively new to Ruby, and Rails, I need to use Rails version 3.2.19, for some tutorials I'm following along, I get all kinds of errors trying to follow along with Rails 4...anyways, when I do: gem install rails --version=3.2.19, it shows that it installed it. When I do rails -v, it shows Rails 4.1.5....I thought maybe if I create a new Rails app, specifying version 3.2.19, that would work. Surprise, it showed up as Rails 4.1.5 in my Gemfile...what gives? I tried manually changing it in the Gemfile and running bundle install, but then everything breaks when I fire up the Rails server...I searched those errors on here, and no surprise, all the answers were about how those are errors when trying to use Rails 3, in an app that was generated with Rails 4.
I'm really stumped about this folks and would appreciate any help! Thanks in advance!
1)please install rvm if YES,check the rvm ls
and set ruby 1.9.3 as default.and then make new project
2)can you see the which version of ruby using if 2+ then it will be rails 4
if you want to use rails 3 then use 1.9.3 ...
Are you doing rails _3.2.19_ new myapp
when you're generating your app?
Also when you change rails version on your Gemfile, you have to run bundle update rails to update the version.
I've been following Mike Hartl's excellent Ruby on Rails Tutorial`.
I had to make some decisions earlier about versions for gem files and ruby. I decided (after some problems getting Heroku to work that I'd directly mimic the tutorial and versions of ruby described - leading me to go with rvm use 2.0.0 to set my version of ruby.
All was great on chapter one but now I'm getting an error message when i try to create a new rails project:
$ rails new demo_app
/home/huw/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.0.0-p481/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require': cannot load such file -- rails/cli (LoadError)
from /home/huw/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.0.0-p481/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:inrequire'
from /usr/bin/rails:9:in `'
I have no idea what that means... but as its referencing my ruby version I'm guessing that my rails and ruby versions are out of sync...
Could someone advise on possible courses of action?
I imagine possible options would be:
Reset my ruby version to the latest (but I don't know what clashes
that would create with gems!)
Downgrade from rails 4.1 to rails 4 (I believe that's Mike Hardl's version)
Force things through somehow
I'm a complete rails Noob however, and have no idea where to begin on any of those options - or if that error code even backs up my assumptions!
Forgive the "answer" but I don't have the rep to post a mere comment :-(
Have you tried looking at the RVM site? It has a troubleshooting page that may help you.
If not, have you tried get rvm stable and then typing in the rails new app_name command?
Other useful RVM commands are rvm list rubies and rvm gemset list. It may be the case that the ruby version you're using doesn't have rails for some reason.
As per zwippie's answer in the comment section, the solution was achieved as follows.
rails -v produced a very similar looking output to the error message above.
gem install rails after hanging for a second installed rails successfully. I am now able to add a new project.
I'm unsure why this has happened as I've been successfully making new rails projects both on this laptop and in this directory for the last two weeks, even up until this morning. However as zwippie notes perhaps this is an RVM setup issue. I'll go away and read up but if anyone had any additional pointers from documentation that might shed light on the issue I'm appreciate any links in the comment.
Many thanks all.
check for the rails is installed on your machine by the command bundle show rails.
If you get the version of rails and are still getting the above error, to resolve it you may have to use the command bundle exec before every rails command as in bundle exec rails s.
Currently going through a rails tutorial and I need to make some modifications to /config/initializers/secret_token.rb, however, I can't find this file anywhere within the initializers directory. I am running the latest version of rails. This is the line I used in the terminal to create a rails project:
rails new sample_app
Anyone know why it isn't showing up?
Thanks for pointing this out. The issue is probably due to using Rails 4.1 instead of Rails 4.0 as specified in the Rails Tutorial. It's because of issues like this that Section 1.2.2 states (bold in original)
Unless otherwise noted, you should use the exact versions of all software used in the tutorial, including Rails itself, if you want the same results.
To get things to work, first uninstall the current version of Rails:
$ gem uninstall rails railties
Then follow the instructions exactly as written in the tutorial to install Rails 4.0:
$ gem install rails --version 4.0.4
Generating a test app (skipping Bundler for convenience) and piping the output through grep then verifies that secret_token.rb gets generated:
$ rails -v
Rails 4.0.4
$ rails new test_app --skip-bundle | grep secret_token
create config/initializers/secret_token.rb
At this point, you should be able to follow the rest of the tutorial as written.
By the way, I'm about to start work on a 3rd edition of the tutorial, and will plan to take care of this issue as part of a more general update.
The tutorial you're looking at was likely written for an older version of Rails than you're using.
secret_token.rb existed in Rails 3 and Rails 4.0 apps; it does not exist in Rails 4.1 apps.
It has been replaced in Rails 4.1 by the secrets.yml file:
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/upgrading_ruby_on_rails.html#config-secrets-yml
I am using 4.1.1. Dont copy nothing to the secrets.yml, just dont forget to update the gitignore file (http://www.railstutorial.org/book/beginning#code-gitignore)
With this you can keep going on the tutorial
I am having trouble using script/generate. I am following the tree based navigation tutorial, which says to use script/plugin install git://github.com/rails/acts_as_tree.git or script/generate nifty_layout.
I keep getting:
No such file or directory -- script/plugin
I've tried these variations:
script/generate nifty_layout
rails generate nifty_layout
ruby script/generate nifty_layout
ruby generate nifty_layout
and they all tell me:
-bash: script/generate: No such file or directory
Am I missing something? Total ruby nuby here and I just can't seem to find an answer.
edit: rails 3 on Mac OS X 10.6
Rails 3 is your problem (or rather the cause of). Since rails 3 all of the "script/whatever" commands have been replaced with "rails whatever".
So now you want "rails generate ..." or "rails server" instead.
Be sure to watch version numbers or post dates when looking at tutorials :)
linkage:
Missing script/generate in Rails 3
There is a LOT of out-of-date information on the interwebs for Rails now as a result of it evolving quickly and being so popular. I use the Ruby on Rails Guides as my first stop for information as those pages seem to be the most current.
The rails generate info seems current.
you may try a couple things, first, make sure since you are using rails 3 that you have run 'bundle install'. depending on how you installed rails and which version of bundler you are using, it may not be finding your rails binary to execute the rails generate .. so you may try prefixing it with bundle exec rails g but that is deprecated and you should get a warning if you call it. Also, make sure you are following ryan's instructions for rails 3 (and run bundle install once you add to the gemfile) on his library: https://github.com/ryanb/nifty-generators
As a shortcut to rails server, you can use 'rails s'. Similarly for the console, 'rails c'.
