Using Bundler, RVM and RubyGems

Question

I seem to be getting an odd issue here, not sure where to look to debug it. I have had Ruby installed on my machine for a while now but today have added RVM. So I will run through the steps I am taking:

My Gemfile:

source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'capistrano', '~> 3.1.0'

Try to install:

$ bundle
Fetching gem metadata from https://rubygems.org/.......
Installing rake (10.2.1) 
Gem::InstallError: rake requires Ruby version >= 1.9.
An error occured while installing rake (10.2.1), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install rake -v '10.2.1'` succeeds before bundling.

Check Ruby version, which is greater than 1.9:

$ ruby -v
ruby 2.0.0p247 (2013-06-27 revision 41674) [universal.x86_64-darwin13]

Make sure rake is installed:

$ gem list

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

...
rake (10.2.1)
...

Try installing rake anyway:

$ sudo gem install rake -v '10.2.1'
Successfully installed rake-10.2.1
Parsing documentation for rake-10.2.1
1 gem installed

Make sure rake is installed:

$ gem list

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

...
rake (10.2.1)
...

Try again:

$ bundle
Fetching gem metadata from https://rubygems.org/.......
Installing rake (10.2.1) 
Gem::InstallError: rake requires Ruby version >= 1.9.
An error occured while installing rake (10.2.1), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install rake -v '10.2.1'` succeeds before bundling.

Perhaps some useful information:

$ rvm info

system:

Answer 1

The fix for me was:

$ rvm reinstall 2.1.1

It seems as though, when I installed this version the first time round it didn't complete correctly and didn't update all the paths. So gem install was installing my gems in the wrong place.
