使用 RVM 安装 Ruby 时出错（安装 RubyGems 失败）

Question

I'm trying to install Ruby 1.9.3 via RVM. However, when it gets to the point of installing RubyGems, I get this:

curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 The requested url does not exist: 'http://production.cf.rubygems.org/rubygems/rubygems-.tgz' Trying ftp:// URL instead.

% Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- 0:05:00 --:--:-- 0curl: (28) connect() timed out!

There was an error, please check /home/jjw0c4/.rvm/log/ruby-1.9.3-p125/*.log

There has been an error while trying to fetch the source. Halting the installation.

My guess is the URL " /rubygems-.tgz ", shouldn't there be a version number on the end?

Answer 1

This was a bug in the earlier version of RVM.

Update RVM:

rvm get stable # OR:
rvm get head   # OR if none worked:
curl -L get.rvm.io | bash -s stable

The installer also does update (in fact latest rvm get... just calls the installer)

Answer 2

I ended up removing and then reinstalling RVM using the command on the RVM site:

curl -L get.rvm.io | bash -s stable

Now I have

rvm 1.12.1 (stable) by Wayne E. Seguin <wayneeseguin@gmail.com>, Michal Papis <mpapis@gmail.com> [https://rvm.io/]

installed.

Thanks.

I don't know if this is the same reason you are having a problem or not, but for me, I think the reason I was having this problem was because my cURL CA bundle (the list of valid certificate authorities) was outdated. So I think it was failing on validating SSL certificates. When I updated my CS bundle it was able to install RubyGems just fine.

Update: I also found out that some RubyGems.org servers were down when I was in the process of installing RubyGems so that is why it was resulting in 404 errors. I tried again today, and it worked.
