Ran into the following Error:

The `brew link` step did not complete successfully
The formula built, but is not symlinked into /usr/local
Could not symlink include/mysql
/usr/local/include is not writable.

Any comments or help on this would be most appreciated!

Your problem is:

/usr/local/include is not writable.

I think that should be owned by your user. Mine is

drwxr-xr-x  232 chris  admin   7888 Sep 26 14:24 include

I imagine fixing permissions and reinstalling mysql will do the trick.

I get to the point where I'm loading mysql and then get errors:

launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist

launchctl: Couldn't stat("/Users/myusername/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist"): No such file or directory

nothing found to load

any hints?

Thanks a lot, it was always a struggle to get a Rails app to work with `pg` before. Not anymore!

I'm stuck on the final steps of the installation, I went to create a new rails app. Results are below. I clicked (yes) for everything after the conflict below, and then db:create after

Pears-MacBook-Pro:~ Pear$ rails new tryout -d postgresql

exist

identical README.rdoc

identical Rakefile

identical config.ru

identical .gitignore

conflict Gemfile

Overwrite /Users/Pear/tryout/Gemfile? (enter "h" for help) [Ynaqdh]

There was also
Pears-MacBook-Pro:orange Pear$ rake db:create

Could not find gem 'pg (>= 0) ruby' in the gems available on this machine.

Run `bundle install` to install missing gems.

I used homebrew and i'm on mavericks 10.9, i'm trying to find a way to add the rvm, and i've used stack overflow beforehand.

thinknig about just uninstalling everything and resetting everything up if I can't find an answer as i've been working on this for the last few hours.

Any help would be appreciated.

You need to run 'bundle install' as it mentioned there. You set up a new Rails app with a different database. That means you've got a new database adapter gem to use but haven't installed it yet. bundle install will do that for you.

I've never used postgresql in a rails app. I'm getting errors, here is a gist:https://gist.github.com/ant...

not sure how to configure postgres in the yml file

I did the github stuff. never was shown a ssh keycode or whatever.
heres the stuff

jasons-MacBook-Pro:~ prince$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "notpostingmyemail@here.com"

Generating public/private rsa key pair.

Enter file in which to save the key (/Users/prince/.ssh/id_rsa): desktop

desktop already exists.

Overwrite (y/n)? n

jasons-MacBook-Pro:~ prince$

When you type "desktop" it thinks you want to use that as the filename. You want to type a full folder and filename. It suggests (and I do too) saving it to /Users/prince/.ssh folder with the name of id_rsa. That's the default and you can go with that because SSH will check there automatically to find keys. If you don't save it there, then you will need to specify where your key is every time you use SSH.

Or just use thoughtbot's laptop repot.

Their repo is fantastic for people familiar with how to setup Ruby. This guide's goal is to teach newcomers the basics.

for install Brew i'm need Ruby, for install Ruby i'm need Brew(((

Haha! Actually OSX comes with an older version of Ruby. We use that to install Homebrew so we can make installing a ruby version manager easily.

Hi I got this message after I ran: gem install rails -v 4.2.1

Fetching: i18n-0.7.0.gem (100%)

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

You don't have write permissions for the /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0 directory.

can you tell me what I need to do?

Reply

This is basically saying that you're not using the rbenv version of Ruby and you're using system Ruby which you don't want to do.

Try restarting your terminal and double check your ran all the commands. The output you should get from the "which ruby" is something like this "/Users/chris/.rbenv/shims/ruby" when it is set up correctly.

Reply

just say -> sudo gem install rails -v 4.2.1
It worked fine with that.

hi, i went through these instructions everything worked, then i got to the end and discovered that the program that i am attempting to run is dependant on ruby 1.8.7 instead of 2.2.2. How would I uninstall v 2.2.2?

Reply

Don't worry about uninstalling it because you might want to use 2.2.2 in the future. You installed a version manager so you can have multiple copies at once.

Just do this to install 1.8.7:

rbenv install 1.8.7
rbenv global 1.8.7
ruby -v

everything seems to have worked but I can't load http://localhost:3000. I'm using OSX 10.9 and wondering if there s a firewall problem. Is there and how would I fix that?

I am getting the below error..rake db:create

rake aborted!

I am getting this error:how should I fix it?
specified 'sqlite3' for database adapter, but the gem is not loaded. Add `gem 'sqlite3'` to your Gemfile (and ensure its version is at the minimum required by ActiveRecord).Please be specific.
