Question

I cannot start my server, it really doesn’t make sense. Traced the paths, found the gems, install, uninstalled, re-installed, and nothing seems to work. Installed on OS X via RVM. So here’s the stats:
$ which ruby
/Users/Ross/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p180/bin/ruby

$ which rails
/Users/Ross/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p180/bin/rails

$ which gem
/Users/Ross/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p180/bin/gem

$ gem list

Answer 1

was a security conflict; I had to chown all the file in the gems directory. The owner was root and unless I wanted to sudo the server, I just need my user to have rights to all the files
