rbenv command line gems setup with system install

I am using the chef rbenv recipe (https://github.com/fnichol/chef-rbenv), doing a system wide install (goes into /usr/local/rbenv) with the rails lastmile cookbook (https://github.com/DanThiffault/rails-lastmile). The server works fine, I can install gems, but command line gems don't seem to work (valkyrie, mysql2psql).

Do I need to do additional work to get this working?

You have to run rbenv rehash everytime you install a gem with a command line script when using rbenv.

If you installed the gems in a bundle and are running the command from within the directory where the Gemfile is located, @riley's suggestion might be enough. Otherwise, rehash is the command that will make the executables available on the path.

I'm new to rbenv from rvm where it just seemed to work. It looks like in rbenv you have to run :

bundle exec gemxx

Or generate binstubs:
