From: "Carlos A." Date: 2013-02-21T04:57:39+09:00 Subject: Instalation problem HI!! I'm a complete newby and I'm trying to follow a tutorial on learning ruby on rails. I am on a new mac and require an updated version of ruby to follow the tutorial. Everything I've read has pointed me towards downloading and using RVM. I typed \curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby in my terminal and this is a shortened version of what happened: Upgrade of RVM in /Users/carlosamengual/.rvm/ is complete. # Carlos Amengual, # # Thank you for using RVM! # I sincerely hope that RVM helps to make your life easier and # more enjoyable!!! # # ~Wayne rvm 1.18.8 (stable) by Wayne E. Seguin , Michal Papis [https://rvm.io/] Searching for binary rubies, this might take some time. No binary rubies available for: osx/10.8/x86_64/ruby-1.9.3-p385. Continuing with compilation.

Halting the installation. I see that rvm has been installed, but something has obviously gone wrong...any ideas. This is like the third time I'm doing it because when I try and install an updated version of Ruby I get similar messages. Thanks in advanced for your help. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
