problem doing bundle install on ubuntu

my situation is as follows:

I installed rvm as a root user on Ubuntu 10.04. As a root user I then installed ruby 1.9.2 and rails 3.0.1 using rvm at location '/rvm/gems/ruby1.9.2-p0/'. Then I logged in as myself on ubuntu and tried creating a rails application in /home/myself/www/myapp. When I do 'bundle install' I get the following error:

'Permission Denied' - home/myself/www/myapp/Gemfile.lock (Errno: EAccess) from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby1.9.2-p0/gems/bundler-1.0.7/lib/bundler/definition.rb

I am also not able to do sudo bundle install.

Moreover, when I log back in as root and try to do bundle install from there...I get error:

bash: bundle: command not found.

I am very lost now. How can I get this to work???

May you should check the permissions of your rails app folder, review the owner and group because I had the same problem and I has solved with:

chown -R USER railsapp_folder

Good luck!

I highly recommend starting over and installing RVM under your own account. This tutorial is perfect.

You need to make sure you've added:

[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && . "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"

into your ~/.bashrc as per the instructions here (see "Post Install").

type rvm | head -1 should return rvm is a function if you've done it correctly.

rvmsudo runs as sudo in the current environment and from the path it was called from.

When you logged in as root, did you activate rvm using 

rvm use 1.9.2

EDIT:

How about (logged in as root)

rvm use 1.9.2
cd /home/myself/www/myapp
bundle install
