Error with Rails installer

Hey all!

I'm getting this error pop up when I'm trying to install Rails...

https://www.evernote.com/shard/s51/sh/324585c2-c196-4482-b8c1-9ce96134245a/9bc1ae7c342d26882fa7aa4bd08566a5

My version for OS X is 10.8.2 if that helps..

Thanks!

Will

That's a permissions error. The easiest way to fix it, is to run Repair Disk Permissions on your hard drive.

  • Open Disk Utility
  • Choose Macintosh HD
  • Click Repair Disk Permissions
  • Reboot Your Mac
