Why is Ruby not updating after updating with Ruby Installer?


I am currently have Ruby version 2.2.6 installed on my Windows 10 machine but need to update order to use the shopify_app gem. I downloaded Ruby 2.5.1-2 (x64) wıthout the devkit as it says on the Ruby Installer site and followed the prompts. I seemingly finished the installation , but entering ruby -v in the command line tells me I am still useing version 2.2.6. I have also tried bundle update which gives the following:

C:\Sites\postgresapp>bundle update
The dependency byebug (>= 0) will be unused by any of the platforms Bundler is installing for. Bundler is installing for x86-mingw32 but the dependency is only for ruby. To add those platforms to the bundle, run `bundle lock --add-platform ruby`.

How can I complete the installation of the latest version of Ruby?


Solution

  • You need to update your PATH environment variable, it is still pointing to the old installation. If I remember correctly, the installer does have a box to check off to set the PATH variable. Only one installation at a time can be in your PATH.

    See this answer for a quick way to change the variable. It will follow the same syntax as the following.

    Open cmd.exe and type:

    set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Ruby250\bin
    

    Your installation location may be different, confirm before entering. You can also do it through the properties window of MyComputer or whatever they call it now. I find the terminal to be simpler, as it take abouts 6 windows deep to change through the GUI.
