Homebrew iProblem

Ruby

Can anyone tell me what’s going on here ? I have reinstalled xCode and
homebrew and I still get the same error.

                                                                       ~$>

brew install rbenv

And brew doctor shos this error.

Do a quick google search for how to install the xcode command line
tools. Should be an option in preferences somewhere. That should help.

These are two separate errors. Fix the xcode one first to make sure that
it isn’t masking a permissions error.

And brew doctor shos this error.

Xcode → Prefs → downloads → components → command-line tools

I have installed the xCode command-line and brew doctor says all ok,
however I am still getting the error from brew when I try to install
rbenv.

Ryan answered this; you have a permissions issue. Change the permissions
on /Library/Caches/Homebrew.

I have changed the owner of the folder to username and works.

Maybe will hep someone else:

/Library/Caches$> sudo chown username Homebrew/

To enable shims and autocompletion, add rbenv init to your profile:

I know this sounds a silly question but what shour I set the permission
to ? at the moment the folder its empty.

And this is what it looks like.

/Library/Caches$> ls -la
total 1552

drwxr-xr-x 2 root admin 68 28 Jul 2011 Homebrew

Is your username really username? And why doesnt the above directory
exist?

The problems you’re having are indicative of your unix knowledge being
at a pretty early phase. That’s really cool, and it’s good you’re
learning, but you may want to stop this project for a day to read up on
file and directory permissions. That knowledge will help you with these
issues.

Jam,

I am not sure why I added the .rbenv file, However after removing, the
command rbenv install 1.9.3-p0 started to run correctly.

And the username its actually my name-and-surname I have substitute it
before pasting the output of command line.

I have rbenv in full swing now I successfully installed 1.8.7. 1.9.2 and
1.9.3

Thanks

Go through whatever tutorial you were following and work out why you
added
a .rbenv. It’ll list some advantages of having one, and that’ll inform
your
future behavior, which is good. It’s how we accumulate dev knowledge.

I’m glad you’re up and running!

Be good
