bundle install > 'mkdir': Invalid argument - C:/? (Errno::EINVAL)

[Jason N]

I receive the following error when attempting to run "bundle install":

At line:207 in bundler.rb the (path) variable is "?" rather than a
genuine path. How has this happened?

Windows environment.

(Ceaveat, I'm behind a firewall, so I'm running it using rubysspi via
the following command: ruby -rspa 'C:\ruby192\bin\bundle' install...
this works fine for installing gems, so I suspect this should be
working fine for this)

You've got me there, I have no idea. Please refer to http://github.com/carlhuda/bundler/blob/master/ISSUES.md for instructions on submitting bug reports to the tracker. Thanks!

Actually, I'm just digging through the stack trace and source code...

Line:39 of installer.rb has:

Bundler.mkdir_p(Bundler.bundle_path) unless File.exist?
(Bundler.bundle_path)

And Bundler.bundle_path appears to be:

irb(main):005:0* Bundler.bundle_path
=> #<Pathname:C:/?/ruby/1.9.1>
