Description Nam Duong 2012-03-27 03:34:49 UTC

Description of problem:
IHAC running on Ubuntu 10.4 64bit.  After running:
su
apt-get install ruby
apt-get install rubygems
apt-get install ruby1.8-dev
gem install --source http://gems.rubyforge.org --source https://openshift.redhat.com/app/repo/ rhc

the user is still not able to run rhc commands.  After asking around, Dan pointed me to: http://www.stylesen.org/openshift_client_tools_installation_debianubuntu

Seems users still need to run:
ln -s /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/rhc* /usr/bin/

Not obvious and will cause more forum posts, emails, support calls.

Comment 1 Nam Duong 2012-03-27 03:36:39 UTC

There is evidence that this problem is reported quite often.  Not always on Ubuntu, but on RHEL as well.

Comment 2 John (J5) Palmieri 2012-03-28 21:01:55 UTC

The gem doesn't install into /usr/bin.

I'll see if there is an option for this.

Comment 3 John (J5) Palmieri 2012-03-28 21:06:25 UTC

correct command to install would be:

gem install --source http://gems.rubyforge.org --source
https://openshift.redhat.com/app/repo/ --bindir=/usr/bin rhc

I don't know if there is a way to make this the default.

It's fixed
