Could not extract RVM sources

I am trying to get rvm, gem, ruby, ir b, rails all installed, however, some issues occurred during installation.

Could not extract RVM sources.

now I am trying to reinstall rvm, gem, ruby, irb on Mac.

Here is the tutorial I was following:

Now I am going through process mentioned in:

I am on bash shell, I have executed:


    rvm implode
    rm -rf /usr/local/rvm
    sudo rm /etc/profile.d/rvm.sh
    sudo rm /etc/rvmrc
    sudo rm ~/.rvmrc

I have modified each of following to remove all reference to rvm:


    ~/.bashrc 
    ~/.bash_profile 
    ~/.profile 
    ~/.zshrc
    ~/.zlogin

then I called following command:


    gpg2 --recv-keys 409B6B1796C275462A1703113804BB82D39DC0E3 7D2BAF1CF37B13E2069D6956105BD0E739499BDB
    
    \curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
    
    \curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --rails

however the error shows again:


    Could not extract RVM sources.

It seems whatever I try it always end up this error, I am really frustrated.

Could someone please help me out.

    Could not extract RVM sources.

Previously I installed gem by rvm, I have uninstalled rvm, but the gem is still there, should I uninstall the gem first? if so, how can I do it?

The problem is generally with some old rvm related stuffs in your system during installation error, hence they need a cleanup to fresh install the rvm.

Try fixing the permissions with this ->

rvmsudo rvm cleanup all
