Can't install ruby via rvm, Error running '__rvm_make -j4' on ubuntu 22.04

Question

I have tried to install several versions of ruby (2.5.5, 2.6.6, 2.7.4, 3.0.0) and in all cases it has given the same error, of course with each version, in this example I only put the error for version 2.6.6:

 $ rvm use ruby --install --default 2.6.6
Required ruby-2.6.6 is not installed - installing.
ruby-2.6.6 - #removing src/ruby-2.6.6..
Searching for binary rubies, this might take some time.
No binary rubies available for: ubuntu/22.04/x86_64/ruby-2.6.6.
Continuing with compilation. Please read 'rvm help mount' to get more information on binary rubies.

Error running '__rvm_make -j4',
please read /home/elorat/.rvm/log/1652140330_ruby-2.6.6/make.log

There has been an error while running make. Halting the installation.

This is my work environment:

 $ rvm --version
rvm 1.29.12-next (master) by Michal Papis, Piotr Kuczynski, Wayne E. Seguin [https://rvm.io]

 $ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
Release:    22.04
Codename:   jammy

UPDATE

I can't put the whole make.log file because the Body is limited to 30000 characters; the make.log file is 90138 characters long. I'm going to put the first 18788 characters.

this is part of the file make.log.

Answer 1

To fix this issue I have removed the RVM and use ruby-build instead

This do the trick for me:

Step 1: Install required dependencies

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y git curl autoconf bison build-essential libssl-dev libreadline-dev zlib1g-dev libyaml-dev libsqlite3-dev sqlite3 libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev software-properties-common libffi-dev

Step 2: Install ruby-build

git clone https://github.com/rbenv/ruby-build.git
cd ruby-build
sudo ./install.sh

Step 3: Install Ruby 2.7.5 using ruby-build

sudo ruby-build 2.7.5 /usr/local/ruby-2.7.5

Step 4: Add Ruby to your PATH

echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/ruby-2.7.5/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc

Step 5: Verify the installation

ruby -v

Answer 2

These steps worked for me

$ which openssl

For me, it outputs

/usr/local/bin/openssl

Then,

$ rvm install ruby-2.7.8 -C --with-openssl-dir=/usr/local/bin/openssl

Answer 3

It appears you have installed OpenSSL 3.0 (which is the only version of OpenSSL available on Ubuntu 22.04).

As this is a major update from previous OpenSSL versions, many libraries using OpenSSL (including Ruby) need to be adapted to use the changed APIs of OpenSSL. OpenSSL 3.0 is supported starting with version 3.0.0 of the openssl gem, which in turn was first shipped with Ruby version 3.1.0.

As such, to be able to install a custom version of Ruby on your Ubuntu 22.04 (with rbenv / rvm / ruby-install), you have to use at least Ruby 3.1.0.

Ubuntu 22.04 ships with a patched version of Ruby 3.0.2 which you may also use. Older Ruby versions are unfortunately not supported directly. If you need an older Ruby version on Ubuntu 22.04, you would also have to compile a custom OpenSSL 1.1.1 and compile Ruby against this custom OpenSSL.

Answer 4

Issue command

rvm pkg install openssl

And watch output

Extracting openssl to /usr/share/rvm/src/openssl-1.0.1i.....
Configuring openssl in /usr/share/rvm/src/openssl-1.0.1i.........
Compiling openssl in /usr/share/rvm/src/openssl-1.0.1i.....
Installing openssl to /usr/share/rvm/usr.................

And then

rvm install 2.4.1 --with-openssl-dir=/usr/share/rvm/usr 

directory taken from output Installing openssl to /usr/share/rvm/usr

Answer 5

I am also facing this issue while installing ruby-2.6.5 through rvm in Ubuntu-22.04

ruby-2.5 and below versions are not supported in Ubuntu-22.04 so for that I found one solution to install openssl which support all ruby versions

rvm get head

wget https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.1.1g.tar.gz
tar zxvf openssl-1.1.1g.tar.gz

cd openssl-1.1.1g
./config --prefix=$HOME/.openssl/openssl-1.1.1g --openssldir=$HOME/.openssl/openssl-1.1.1g

make
make test
make install

rm -rf ~/.openssl/openssl-1.1.1g/certs
ln -s /etc/ssl/certs ~/.openssl/openssl-1.1.1g/certs

Install any ruby version with --with-openssl-dir option.
I installed ruby-2.6.5 like this:

rvm reinstall ruby-2.6.5 --with-openssl-dir=$HOME/.openssl/openssl-1.1.1g

Answer 6

The thing is that you are using the 22.04 version of ubuntu which contains only the openssl of version above 3 but ruby and rails runs on the version 1.1 of the ssl either u downgrade your ubuntu version or openssl version . I rather done downgrading my ubuntu version

This fix this issue :

$ rvm pkg install openssl
$ rvm reinstall 2.7.6 --with-openssl-dir=/home/$(whoami)/.rvm/usr

Answer 8

Run rvmsudo rvm pkg install openssl

then:

rvmsudo rvm install 2.5.1 --with-openssl-dir=/usr/share/rvm/usr

Answer 9

As your errors highlited teh gemset not created, do in one line:

rvm use ruby-2.6.6 --install --default --create

or, if it fails, try:

ruby -v
rvm list
rvm install ruby-2.6.6
rvm use ruby-2.6.6 --default
