Build Fail and Installing Ruby

Hey All,

I recently have been working with the Ruby Rails corse.

So mistakenly I've installed Rails before the current version of Ruby and in back-tracking to install Ruby I get a Build Fail Error and "Inspect or clean up the working tree at /var/folders/dw/hjf2bfpd007cv_55_23scqjc0000gn/T/ruby-build.20150428151726.39693".

My thought process was, maybe there is a file in this directory that may need to be deleted. I found a yaml -0.1.0.6 file then deleted it. Additionally I deleted the Rails folder created just to try to start from scratch.

At this point Im trying to figure out the best way to install it from scratch.

Any thoughts?

Not sure if I trust what I did haha. Still would like to start from scratch if possible.

Any thoughts Jason Seifer Jim Hoskins
