I am trying to set up RVM with Ruby 1.9.3-p0 and when I run
$rvm install 1.9.3
I get:
ERROR: Error running ' ./configure --prefix=/Users/zkidd/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p0 --enable-shared --disable-install-doc --with-libyaml-dir=/Users/zkidd/.rvm/usr ', please read /Users/zkidd/.rvm/log/ruby-1.9.3-p0/configure.log ERROR: There has been an error while running configure. Halting the installation.
And then when I open the configure.log in textmate I see:
[2011-12-31 16:43:59] ./configure --prefix=/Users/zkidd/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p0 --enable-shared --disable-install-doc --with-libyaml-dir=/Users/zkidd/.rvm/usr configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-libyaml-dir checking build system type... x86_64-apple-darwin11.2.0 checking host system type... x86_64-apple-darwin11.2.0 checking target system type... x86_64-apple-darwin11.2.0 checking whether the C compiler works... no configure: error: in
/Users/zkidd/.rvm/src/ruby-1.9.3-p0': configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables Seeconfig.log' for more details
I'm not sure what to do next here :/ I have reinstalled XCODE and Mac OS is update to date. Also, I just newly installed RVM too, which worked fine. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you.
I've had very similar errors on 1.9.2 If ruby fails on its first attempt /Users/zkidd/.rvm/src/ruby-1.9.3-p0 can be left over once an installation fails. I would recommend removing ruby again (sorry...) and manually checking to see that that /Users/zkidd/.rvm/src/ruby-1.9.3-p0 is deleted as well as the entire contents of .rvm/archives as ruby will not always overwrite files properly. The other option is to make sure that your file permissions are clean. I love the lazy way and just run fix file permissions in the disk utility. I'm pretty sure it's disk utility>startup disk>first aid>repair disk permissions.
That's what I've got... good luck!
