Encrypting files for travis-ci on ruby-2.2.2 fails with “private method `load' called for Psych:Module”

Question

I'm having trouble encrypting my database.yml for Travis CI. Based on their documentation, it appears you encrypt files with the travis encrypt-file command . I'm running on Ruby-2.2.2 and it's giving me some pretty cryptic error messages.

travis encrypt-file config/database.yml --add

And I get this error:

private method `load' called for Psych:Module
for a full error report, run travis report

Here's the backtrace when I run travis report :

$ travis report

Answer 1

The solution was to uninstall Psych version 2.0.13 and have only 2.0.5 on my machine. I had both 2.0.5 and 2.0.13 and it seems that they were conflicting with each other. I found the information on this forum post .

Answer 2

gem update --system

在Ubuntu 14.04 + RVM + Ruby 2.1.1p76上为我解决了该问题，如以下网址所述： https : //github.com/bbatsov/rubocop/issues/1510#issuecomment-102645627
