Working in Nitrous.IO, my rails app was acting strange. So I checked and I was using rails version 0.9.5 instead of version 4.0.1! I decided to do a gem uninstall rails --version 0.9.5
. Everything is good, except it also removed the rails executable! How do I get that back? Seems like version 4.0.1 is there, but I can't run the rails
command. Should I just uninstall and reinstall rails?
UPDATE: Tried gem install rails
even though I already had rails 4.0.1 installed:
action@creativebox-45198:~$ gem install rails
Successfully installed rails-4.0.1
1 gem installed
action@creativebox-45198:~$ rails -v
-bash: rails: command not found
This issue has been resolved through Nitrous support channels. Somehow the file /home/action/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/bin/rails
was missing, and gem install rails
did not add it. Manually adding this file with the following contents solved the issue.
#!/usr/bin/env ruby_noexec_wrapper
#
# This file was generated by RubyGems.
#
# The application 'railties' is installed as part of a gem, and
# this file is here to facilitate running it.

require 'rubygems'
version = ">= 0"
if ARGV.first
str = ARGV.first
str = str.dup.force_encoding("BINARY") if str.respond_to? :force_encoding
if str =~ /\A_(.*)_\z/
version = $1
ARGV.shift
end
end
gem 'railties', version
load Gem.bin_path('railties', 'rails', version)
