rbenv version appears in list but won't install

Question

I'm trying to install Ruby 2.4.4 for one specific project.

When I run rbenv install -l , 2.4.4 appears in the list of available versions, but running rbenv local 2.4.4 gives the error message "rbenv: version `2.4.4' not installed".

Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

Answer 1

When I run rbenv install -l, 2.4.4 appears in the list of available versions

rbenv install -l lists all available ruby versions that can be installed. rbenv versions on the other hand lists all locally installed ruby versions.

Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

You need to execute rbenv install 2.4.4
