I was trying to install Ruby Version Manager for installing Ruby on Rails.

I am following this link. : https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-ruby-on-rails-on-ubuntu-12-04-lts-precise-pangolin-with-rvm

However, I am getting this error.

    You need to try again, I just pushed a fix that will show error code from curl, then you can check with man curl | grep '<the-errror-number>' Commented Mar 29, 2013 at 10:15
  • Surprisingly, there is no error now. Commented Mar 29, 2013 at 10:33

    I bet for a temporary network error. Commented Mar 29, 2013 at 10:47
  • Yes, could be. I had tried 4-5 times during that half hour duration. Thankfully, it works now. Commented Mar 29, 2013 at 11:21
  • Behind a proxy, maybe you forgot to configure your https_proxy Commented Jun 26, 2013 at 14:38

1) Install RVM

$ sudo apt-get install curl $ curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby (Refer  https://rvm.io/rvm/install/) $ source /home/sodel/.rvm/scripts/rvm ( enable rvm)

This installs latest stable ruby. To install another version run rvm install

2) rvm install 1.9.3 (it will install ruby 1.9.3)

3) rvm use 1.9.3 (to use latest version of ruby)

4) Start installing gems Ex: gem install bundle

5) bundle install (for all gems)

Install RVM with RUBY

sudo apt-get install curl

after install install rvm also ruby

\curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable

if you face issue with the above line (Failed to connect to get.rvm.io port 443: Network is unreachable)

in browser go to https://get.rvm.io save the page in any location

make it executable file name rvm-installer

chmod +x rvm-installer

then do the following

bash rvm-installer stable --ruby

then check rvm list note the version of ruby listing on terminal

**change terminal to login shell. open a new terminal **

then rvm use 2.1.1 => ( 2.1.1 version )

then its done!

pd@admin:~$ ruby -v

ruby 2.1.1p76 (2014-02-24 revision 45161) [x86_64-linux]

STEPS 1: go to [https://get.rvm.io][1] save the page in in home directory(filename rvm-installer) 2: chmod +x rvm-installer 3: bash rvm-installer stable --ruby 4:rvm use 2.1.1 5:gem install rails

programmers keep on coding with ruby.

It seems that you cannot download the package from github. By my side, no problem to download the package at https://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/archive/stable.tar.gz with a browser. If you get same error in a browser, you've probably a network problem.

Try checking your antivirus if you have any, I had same problem with Avast when getting rails from rubygems.org, it was blocking http connection for some reason. Try disable your antivirus if you have any and retry.

On my cygwin system was no curl installed. Instead there must a version on my windows that was used by the cygwin subsystem.

I've installed curl via the cygwin setup.exe and all things run file.

From what i had seen , there was an error prior to this error . It stated curl was outdated . I had to upgrade curl and den again i continued with installing rvm . Worked for me , though the network error also has a high possibility of occurring .

This solution worked for me.

This is an internet protocol problem. I did it before curl and everything works fine

echo ipv4 >> ~/.curlrc

So my steps are:

gpg --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 409B6B1796C275462A1703113804BB82D39DC0E3 echo ipv4 >> ~/.curlrc \curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby
