Where on Ubuntu is Rails?

[RVince]

I followed the setup instructions for a fresh install of Mint15 according to this excellent tutorial : http://ryanbigg.com/2010/12/ubuntu-ruby-rvm-rails-and-you/
which sets up via rvm. I followed the instructions therein, but when I am in my ~ directory, i get:

user@Mint15Mate64 ~ $ rails create test
The program 'rails' can be found in the following packages:
 * rails
 * ruby-railties-3.2
Try: sudo apt-get install <selected package>

Oddly, if I also simply try:

user@Mint15Mate64 ~ $ rake -T
rake aborted!
No Rakefile found (looking for: rakefile, Rakefile, rakefile.rb, Rakefile.rb)
/home/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/bin/ruby_executable_hooks:15:in `eval'
/home/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/bin/ruby_executable_hooks:15:in `<main>'
(See full trace by running task with --trace)

Something is not appearing in my path -- but I dont know what the entry shuld be in my path. My path appears as:

user@Mint15Mate64 ~ $ echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/home/user/.rvm/bin

and if I do
gem list
I get:
rails (4.0.0)
railties (4.0.0)
(among many other gems)

Can someone please point me in the right direction so that I can invoke
>rails create test

please?

Thanks, RVic

Please quote the previous message when replying as it makes it easier
to follow the thread. Thanks.

Note that this shows the correct path.
Have you got a file in your home folder .bash_profile. If so, what is
in it? Also did you remember the step in the tutorial where it says
to run
~/.bash_profile

Colin,

~/bash_profile has only the following line:


[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" # Load RVM into a shell session *as a function*

when I reload bash profile:
. ~/.bash_profile

rails works -- it's recognized by the. I have since rebooted since installing everything (I reloaded .bash_profile befoe the reboot). Must I reload .bash_profile every time? I thoughtthis was loaded whenever I opened a terminal window?

Thanks so much for your help in getting this going! RVic

You should not have to do it each time. I am not sure why it might
not be invoking it automatically. If you add the line in
.bash_profile to the file .bashrc then it should work ok. I don't
think that it will matter that it is in .bash_profile also, but if you
get any error messages when logging in or opening a terminal then
remove .bash_profile (or rename it initially).
