luarocks error clarification

I had installed luarocks in my centos system after installing lua. But when I run luarocks I am getting the following error:

Error: LuaRocks 2.0.6 bug (please report at [email protected]).
/usr/local/share/lua/5.1//luarocks/command_line.lua:141: attempt to call field 'run' (a nil value)
stack traceback:
    /usr/local/share/lua/5.1//luarocks/command_line.lua:141: in function </usr/local/share/lua/5.1//luarocks/command_line.lua:141>
    [C]: in function 'xpcall'
    /usr/local/share/lua/5.1//luarocks/command_line.lua:141: in function 'run_command'
    /usr/bin/luarocks:28: in main chunk
    [C]: ?

Please let me know what went wrong Thanks,

LuaRocks author here.

This looks like an environment mismatch, possibly with two different versions of LuaRocks installed in the same machine, and one luarocks binary launching modules from another. BTW, LuaRocks 2.0.6 is really old, you should upgrade. Removing all LuaRocks versions from your machine and installing the latest one from http://luarocks.org should fix your problem.
