If 'jekyll -v' gives you the error "cannot load such file -- jekyll/version" try 'gem cleanup'

This also helped with the jekyll: command not found issue I was tearing my hair out over.

Thanks Seth!

Thank you, Seth Kroger! :)

Guil Hernandez Stu Cowley Seth Kroger Doesn't work for me; for problems like this, it's probably going to require adding jekyll to the user's preferred command prompt (zsh, bash, fish, & etc).

This is unfortunately a common problem if users use rbenv, rvm & so on because jekyll way of installing with environments with these Ruby managers has quirks most novices of such tools will not be able to debug intuitively.

This is what I generally do for rbenv for example.

I couldn't get Jekyll installed either, but I didn't see any error. In fact, my terminal returned successfully installation even though "Jekyll -v" remained unrecognizable command for my environment.

Here are processes/tricks I tried to get Jekyll installed:

1. gem update
   //this step could really take a "while", approx. 2-3 episodes from Treehouse Friend, even though respectively speaking, I doubt the necessity for this step.
2. install rbenv and Jekyll //ref. https://talk.jekyllrb.com/t/cant-run-jekyll-on-mac-os-x-10-11-el-capitan/1284/2
   • reinstall home-brew
   • make sure global ruby version is consistent with chosen version installed by rbenv //ref. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30288171/os-x-10-9-when-installing-ruby-2-2-2-rbenv-cannot-globally-change-default-ruby
   • sudo su and then gem install Jekyll
