bundle install returns "Could not locate Gemfile"


I'm new to Rails and am currently working through a guide. The guide states:

Use a text editor to update the Gemfile needed by Bundler with the contents of Listing 2.1.

source 'https://rubygems.org'

gem 'rails', '3.2.3'

group :development do
  gem 'sqlite3', '1.3.5'
end


# Gems used only for assets and not required
# in production environments by default.

group :assets do
  gem 'sass-rails',   '3.2.4'
  gem 'coffee-rails', '3.2.2'
  gem 'uglifier', '1.2.3'
end

gem 'jquery-rails', '2.0.0'

group :production do
  gem 'pg', '0.12.2'
end

We then install and include the gems using the bundle install command:

    $ bundle install --without production 

If Bundler complains about no such file to load -- readline (LoadError) try adding gem ’rb-readline’ to your Gemfile.)

I followed the steps even adding on gem 'rb-readline' to the Gemfile, but apparently the file can't be found and when I go to my text editor I do see the Gemfile itself. I noticed that they made me put gem 'rails', 3.2.3 and my version of Rails is 3.2.1 so I tried changing it to 3.2.1 but that didn't work either.

Any thoughts or advice would be much appreciated.


Solution

  • You just need to change directories to your app, THEN run bundle install :)
