not able to create spree rails app

Question

I am trying to create a rails spree app.

I am following this official link.

When I do spree install --auto-accept , I am getting the below error.

Bundler could not find compatible versions for gem "rails": In snapshot (Gemfile.lock): rails (= 4.2.0)

In Gemfile: rails (= 4.2.0)

 spree (~> 3.0.8) was resolved to 3.0.8, which depends on spree_core (= 3.0.8) was resolved to 3.0.8, which depends on rails (~> 4.2.2) 

Running bundle update will rebuild your snapshot from scratch, using only the gems in your Gemfile, which may resolve the conflict.

And then when I run bundle update , I am getting below error.

Bundler could not find compatible versions for gem "rails": In Gemfile: rails (= 4.2.0) spree (~> 3.0.8) was resolved to 3.0.8, which depends on spree_core (= 3.0.8) was resolved to 3.0.8, which depends on rails (~> 4.2.2)

So I am not able to solve this dependency error.

Please help with a solution.

Answer 1

You are right, I had the same issue. Documentation is a bit outdated. Please repeat installation process installing version 4.2.2 of Rails instead of 4.2.0:

gem install bundler
gem install spree_cmd

cd mystore
spree install --auto-accept

I just checked and it works.
