Rake Gems Install Error

Question

I am getting the following error when trying to install gems:

Mohammad-Azams-MacBook-Pro:awesomecats azamsharp$ sudo rake gems:install
Password:
(in /Projects/awesomecats)
rake aborted!
Don't know how to build task 'gems:install'

(See full trace by running task with --trace)
Mohammad-Azams-MacBook-Pro:awesomecats azamsharp$ 

Answer 1

If the task isn't listed in the output of rake -T then it isn't defined and you can't run it.

Rails 3 removed this task in favor of using Gemfile and bundler as the official gem installation procedure as gems:install was often tricky to get working properly.
