Awesome!!!

Can you add how to fix the yml file?

Thanks a lot for this guide, at last it works!

loved this blog.

I have created a video based on this guide at https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Very much thanks :)

For those who having problem with ruby gem, please do this:

gem update
gem clean

Some old gems wont uninstall itself. This would solve gem problem.

I greatly appreciate this guide. I'm getting into Linux and Ruby on Rails after 17 years of developing in MS technologies. It's a Renaissance. There are several good "getting started" guides, and this is only my fifth so far, but it is the best.

worked without any error .. Thanks alot

Thanks just awesome article :)
I don't like rvm :/

Neither "quick" method works in a standard 14.04 64 Bit.
Following the instructions the
rnenv method will run forever and never finish. ever.

rvm method fails with error 100.

Build from source I got to work.

You can add this before bundler install:
echo "gem: --no-document" > ~/.gemrc

Thanks man. Every time I do a clean install of Rails I'm like, "Now what was that page called that worked every time and actually made sense?" :)

Thanks for the guide :) cheers!!!

Amazing! It solved a lot of problems and saved me a lot of headaches!

2.3.0 moans every time rails starts up. Something about mutexes. Hey ho.

A friendly reminder that there is an official Ubuntu package for RVM: https://github.com/rvm/ubun...

this guide is perfect.. all steps are success :) tnx

Had a long issue with the Git SSh key file name. Would recommend explaining where to leave blank (and maybe add a link to the awesome Github guide).

This guide was great, and in fact I used it to install on windows 10 with the new WSL bash window (at least to where I have rails running)... Just for people's info here are the changes and additions to get things to work nicely.

1) after installing bundler make sure to do a "find ~/.bundle/cache -type d -exec chmod 0755 {} +" due to a sort-of issue with latest bundler.
2) then if using rails 5 make sure to use the --skip-spring --skip-listen options and make sure that this line in development.rb is commented out (it should be)
#config.file_watcher = ActiveSupport::EventedFileUpdateChecker

Number #2 is because inotify is not implemented (yet) in windows WSL.
