Ruby Gems Not Installing, Hangs While Getting Gems
- by Tim Hoolihan
I recently cleared out all of my ruby install and installed form sources using the instructions at hivelogic
I have have been able to install a few gems, but most of the time, "sudo gem install rails"
hangs. I've added the -V flag, and it just seems to hang, I don't get any error. And the process can not be killed. I can only reboot to kill the process.
My ruby info:
[tim@ ~]# ruby -v
ruby 1.8.7 (2010-01-10 patchlevel 249) [i686-darwin10.2.0]
[tim@ ~]# gem -v
1.3.6
[tim@ ~]# gem environment
