Can't generate controller

When I try to run "bin/rails generate controller todo_items index -p" in the terminal, I get the following error:

/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require': cannot load such file -- bundler (LoadError) from /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:inrequire' from /Users/joedanehower/ruby_projects/odot/bin/spring:8:in <top (required)>' from bin/rails:3:inload' from bin/rails:3:in `<main>'

Could some one please help me troubleshoot this issue? thanks!

DId you get this fixed? And did you run the command in the root of the project directory?

Steve.

Try using a newer version of Ruby and install Bundler gem: gem install bundler - see if that helps.

bin/rails commands won't work properly if you are in sub-directories of your project folder.
