Ubuntu 12.04 ruby​​软件包安装错误

Question

I'm trying to deploy a rails app to my Ubuntu server. I already installed rvm and right now I'm trying to use bundler in order to deploy my app.

However I'm getting this:

/usr/local/rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p374/lib/ruby/1.9.1/fileutils.rb:247:in `mkdir': Permission denied - /myroot/repos/myapp/.bundle (Errno::EACCES)

First, What user is executing the whole rvm commands? I mean I have rake , bundle etc, in my path, but I don't know exactly which user is executing them.

As a first intent I tried changing the permissions for all the files inside /myapp folder. Giving them root:rvm , but no luck.

Now if I try to run the bundle command as sudo (or in fact any ruby command) I'm getting errors similar to this one:

/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p374@global/bin/ruby_noexec_wrapper

So, a little explanation of what the wrapper is and why is it not finding ruby would help me a lot to understand this kind of error.

It is recommended to not use sudo for rvm , ruby and any RubyGems installed commands as sudo by default losses environment variables used to configure RVM / Ruby / RubyGems.

If you really need to use sudo - go with rvmsudo - but I need to warn you it elevates privileges exposing your system, it's a security risk.
