Installing Ruby 1.9.2 through RVM fails.

Answer 1

A:

To reinstall and start fresh remove rvm, just do rm -rfv ~/.rvm and also rm ~/.rvmrc if it's there.

Answer 2

A:

I have the same problem, it looks like the whole rvm script is broken. The rvm install ree command didn't fail but when running rvm use ree I start getting problems.

The $PATH variable is not empty (like with rvm use 1.9.2), but it miss some important paths like /bin and /usr/bin.

Here is an example console session:

calas@chamonix:~$ ls
Desktop  dev  Documents ...
calas@chamonix:~$ rvm use ree
info: Using /home/calas/.rvm/gems/ree-1.8.7-2010.02
calas@chamonix:~$ ls
Command 'ls' is available in '/bin/ls'
The command could not be located because '/bin' is not included in the PATH environment variable.
ls: command not found
calas@chamonix:~$ rvm info
Command 'sed' is available in '/bin/sed'
The command could not be located because '/bin' is not included in the PATH environment variable.
sed: command not found
bash: grep: No such file or directory
bash: mkdir: No such file or directory
bash: grep: No such file or directory
/usr/bin/env: bash: No such file or directory

After running rvm info the $PATH variable is empty.

I remove the whole rvm installation with rvm implode and reinstall but that doesn't work.

I guess the solution is to downgrade or wait for a new release.

The solution is ready in the git source: rvm update --head && rvm reload and problem SOLVED, thanks Wayne!!
