rake - error

when I type in the command:

rake routes

[21:06:21][example@examples-iMac ~/directory/exampleName]$ rake routes
Could not find rake-10.0.3 in any of the sources
Run `bundle install` to install missing gems.
[21:06:32][example@examples-iMac ~/directory/exampleName]$ bundle exec rake routes

[21:06:40][example@examples-iMac ~/directory/exampleName]$

why is this happening and what can I do to fix this?

This is definitely a rails app. I just started it and was trying to do some things with rake like:

rake db:migrate
rake routes
rake -T

And none of these commands would work without bundle exec

All rake commands without bundle exec create the same error listed in original post

Try bundle update rake

@James I tried that and I have rake 10.0.3 installed but it still isn't working.

  • Remove all the versions of Rake ==> gem uninstall rake
  • Remove Gemfile.lock ==> rm Gemfile.lock

  • Run bundle install

    • bundle install
    • gem install rake --version=10.0.2

  • If you still get the error then put this into your gemfile.

gem 'rake', '0.8.7'
