ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)

Question

I have install rbev

rbenv version
2.0.0-p247 (set by /Users/amritdeepdhungana/.rbenv/version)

, ruby

ruby -v
ruby 2.0.0p247 (2013-06-27 revision 41674) [universal.x86_64-darwin13]\

and rails

rails -v
Rails 4.0.1

I have create new project and bundle it. But I get this problem

Installing rake (10.1.1)
Errno::EACCES: Permission denied - /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/build_info/rake-10.1.1.info
An error occurred while installing rake (10.1.1), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install rake -v '10.1.1'` succeeds before bundling.

After that, I have install rake gem but again I got error

gem install rake -v '10.1.1'
ERROR:  Could not find a valid gem 'rake' (= 10.1.1), here is why:
          Unable to download data from https://rubygems.org/ - too many connection resets (https://s3.amazonaws.com/production.s3.rubygems.org/specs.4.8.gz)
ERROR:  Possible alternatives: rake

How can I set the permission while install any gem package ?

Answer 1

Like @bjhaid said, you're trying to install these gems into your system Ruby.

/Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/build_info/rake-10.1.1.info

Ruby 2.0.0p247 is bundled w/Mavericks. Specifically:

$ /usr/bin/ruby --version
ruby 2.0.0p247 (2013-06-27 revision 41674) [universal.x86_64-darwin13]

My self-built (rvm) version is has a slightly different version string:

$ ruby --version
ruby 2.0.0p247 (2013-06-27 revision 41674) [x86_64-darwin12.3.0]

To find out which ruby is actually being used, try which ruby. Make sure you've properly installed rbenv, and installed a new local Ruby.

Answer 2

It almost looks like you haven't set your PATH up correctly, but your answer to Nick Veys' question doesn't look like it. I would surmise that you haven't installed any ruby under rbenv yet. What does rbenv versions look like?
