RVM Cannot Install Ruby

Question

I am trying to install an older version of Ruby using RVM, but the installation fails with an error that I have never seen before. I already changed rvm_max_time_flag , but that did not help. What can i do here?

 rvm install 1.9.3p484 Searching for binary rubies, this might take some time. No binary rubies available for: osx/10.9/x86_64/ruby-1.9.3p484. Continuing with compilation. Please read 'rvm help mount' to get more information on binary rubies. Checking requirements for osx. Certificates in '/usr/local/etc/openssl/cert.pem' already are up to date. Requirements installation successful.

Halting the installation. 

Answer 1

It says that the URL does not exist OR the URL does not have a ruby ​​version available for download.

Try installing with a compatible version of ruby-gem:

 rvm install 1.9.3p484 --rubygems 2.0.9 

OR

Update

Are you sure you are using an updated version of RVM?

 rvm get head rvm install 1.9.3 

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

1) Make sure that you are using the latest version of RVM rvm get head 2), and then install the new ruby rvm install ruby-2.3

Answer 3

Decision

Make the rvm list known . If it does not display the ruby ​​version that it runs, it can be installed from a local source. Some versions of Ruby are not supported and will not be listed, and rvm may create the wrong URL.

For example, installing ruby-1.9.3-p484 is as follows:

First upload the ruby ​​archive to the RVM archives folder:

cd ~/.rvm/archives; wget http://cache.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.3-p484.tar.bz2

Then set the following flags:

rvm install 1.9.3-p484 --verify-downloads 2 --disable-binary

Explanation

I had to do it so as not to do it: rvm install ruby-1.9.3p484

Since the above command generated this error:

The requested URL does not exist (22): ' https://cache.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/./ruby-1.9.3p484.tar.bz2 ' Check backup: https: //ftp.ruby-lang .org / pub / ruby ​​/./ ruby-1.9.3p484.tar.bz2 Unable to find the backup URL, try increasing the timeout with:

echo "export rvm_max_time_flag = 20" → ~ / .rvmrc

Error getting ruby ​​interpreter. Complete installation.

Answer 4

I decided that just changing the rvm path mod

 sudo chmod 777 -R /path/to/rvm 

in my case: / usr / local / rvm
