First, many thanks in advance for any help. I’m a complete novice with programming and I’m trying to get started with this Ruby on Rails tutorial (http://ruby.railstutorial.org/ruby-on-rails-tutorial-book?version=3.2)
I have been trying figure this out for about 7 hours now and since I don’t have any hair left to pull out I’m turning to these hallowed pages. I have searched for solutions here again and again.
System: Mac OS X 10.7.5 Leopard, Xcode 4.5.2
I installed homebrew and have updated it multiple times
I used homebrew to install rvm and have updated it multiple times
I installed git
The standard ruby on the system (checking with $ ruby -v) is 1.8.7
My problem is that every time I try to use rvm to install a new version of Ruby ($ rvm install 1.9.3) I get the following error:
Ruby (and needed base gems) for your selection will be installed shortly.
Before it happens, please read and execute the instructions below.
Please use a separate terminal to execute any additional commands.
Notes for Mac OS X 10.7.5, Xcode 4.5.2.
For JRuby: Install the JDK. See http://developer.apple.com/java/download/ # Current Java version "1.6.0_26"
For IronRuby: Install Mono >= 2.6
For Ruby 1.9.3: Install libksba # If using Homebrew, 'brew install libksba'
For Opal: Install Nodejs with NPM. See http://nodejs.org/download/
To use an RVM installed Ruby as default, instead of the system ruby:
rvm install 1.8.7 # installs patch 357: closest supported version
rvm system ; rvm gemset export system.gems ; rvm 1.8.7 ; rvm gemset import system.gems # migrate your gems
rvm alias create default 1.8.7
And reopen your terminal windows.
Xcode and gcc:

I have performed $ brew install libksba and when I try to do it again it tells me that libksba is installed already.
When I type “$ rvm requirements” I get:

And reopen your terminal windows.
Xcode and gcc:
Right now Ruby requires gcc to compile, but Xcode 4.2 and later no longer ship with gcc. Instead they ship with llvm-gcc (to which gcc is a symlink) and clang, neither of which are supported for building Ruby. Xcode 4.1 was the last version to ship gcc, which was /usr/bin/gcc-4.2.
Xcode 4.1 and earlier:
- Ruby will build fine.
Xcode 4.2 and later (including Command Line Tools for Xcode):
- If you have gcc-4.2 (and friends) from an earlier Xcode version, Ruby will build fine.
- If you don't have gcc-4.2, you have two options to get it:
* Install apple-gcc42 from Homebrew
* Install osx-gcc-installer
Homebrew:
If you are using Homebrew, you can install the apple-gcc42 and required libraries from homebrew/dupes:
brew update
brew tap homebrew/dupes
brew install autoconf automake apple-gcc42
rvm pkg install openssl
Xcode 4.2+ install or/and Command Line Tools for Xcode is required to provide make and other tools.
osx-gcc-installer:
If you don't use Homebrew, you can download and install osx-gcc-installer: https://github.com/kennethreitz/osx-gcc-installer.
Warning: Installing osx-gcc-installer on top of a recent Xcode is known to cause problems, so you must uninstall Xcode before installing osx-gcc-installer. Afterwards you may install Xcode 4.2+ or Command Line Tools for Xcode if you desire.
** NOTE: Currently, Node.js is having issues building with osx-gcc-installer. The only fix is to install Xcode over osx-gcc-installer.
So I assume I have to do something with
brew update
brew tap homebrew/dupes
brew install autoconf automake apple-gcc42
rvm pkg install openssl
Everything seemed to work fine until “$ rvm pkg install openssl”, which returns:

At this point the letters might as well be wingdings I have no idea what is going on. I have tried to install rvm make with something I saw on one forum post but I got a bunch of warnings. If anyone has any suggestions I would be deeply grateful, I am completely in over my head.
Per suggestion below, I tried to reinstall rvm. Typing “rvm reinstall all –force” didn’t do anything (it just gave me a new terminal line). So I did a search and used rvm implode and then reinstalled per https://rvm.io/rvm/install/ Got the following message out of the rvm install:

rvm install 1.9.3 gets me to the same place as before:

rvm requirements and rvm pkg install openssl also get me to the same exact place. Best, J
in Xcode you need to install command line tools, but … easier way is to install osx-gcc-installer, it includes all the required libraries, compiler and is just one package
