Ruby

Error when bundling devise

Seems to have an issue installing bcrypt ruby because of some issue with the makefile... -Admittedly new to this and trying to keep up the momentum with the RoR tutorials.

I already searched through existing threads and none of them address this specifically.

Tried updating bundler and tried the idea about commenting out the devise install line in the routes.rb...there was no line in there for the devise_for :installs, guessing since the bundle operation fails?


Here are the errors. Sorry it's lengthy.

Hey guys, I got a tip from stackoverflow to uninstall rvm and reinstall. worked like a charm as they say.

Thanks for your help.

Awesome!

If you're on a Mac, make sure you have Xcode installed (it's free from the Mac App Store). The error is saying You have to install development tools first, which is the "command line tools" that come with Xcode.

I am on a Mac. thanks, Sean! ...and wow 1.65GB for developer tools...

I downloaded and installed XCode, but I'm getting the identical error including the line about developer tools.

Any other ideas?

Hi Christopher, have you restarted your computer since installing XCode? That might help.

Hey, Jason. Thanks for the reply. Of course :) I restarted right after installing.

I just read that I may need to go into the preferences in XCode and install the command line tools manually. That's in progress now. I'll repost one way or another.

No dice. Installed the command line tools, restarted, same error except this time I tried to make sure rvm 1.9.3 was running and it gave me the following:

Could not find gem 'devise (>= 0) ruby' in the gems available on this machine. Run bundle install to install missing gems.

If you type which gcc in Terminal, what shows up?

Hey Sean,

Terminal returns:

/usr/bin/gcc
