I followed the instructions from the RVM homepage (https://rvm.beginrescueend.com/rvm/install/)
I typed the following:
sudo bash -s stable < <(curl -s https://raw.github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/master/binscripts/rvm-installer )
the script executed and didn't seem to give any errors.
the same without sudo gave an error:
Warning: Failed to create the file
Warning: /usr/share/ruby-rvm/archives/wayneeseguin-rvm-stable.tgz: Permission
Warning: denied
0 792k 0 3908 0 0 2257 0 0:05:59 0:00:01 0:05:58 2257
curl: (23) Failed writing body (0 != 3908)
Could not download 'https://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/tarball/stable'.
curl returned status '23'.
I also put this in my ~/.bashrc
echo '[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && . "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"
what I get is:
~$ type rvm | head -1
bash: type: rvm: not found
~$ source "/usr/local/rvm/scripts/rvm"
bash: /usr/local/rvm/scripts/rvm: No such file or directory
~$ source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"
bash: /home/anonym/.rvm/scripts/rvm: No such file or directory
How can this be fixed?
PS
I'm using Ubuntu 11.10

Sudo problems. This worked for me to install rvm. Just do:
curl -L https://get.rvm.io | sudo bash -s stable --ruby

You might have RVM installed under the wrong user. RVM won't let you install if it's installed under another user.
You can uninstall it from the other user with rvm implode
.
Log over to the other user and RVM will install correctly!

nano ~/.bashrc
at the bottom of the file add these line
unset rvm_path
unset GEM_HOME
Then run
curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm
echo "source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm" >> ~/.bashrc
rvm install 2.1.3
rvm use 2.1.3 --default
ruby -v

If anyone has this problem in the future in ubuntu I was getting this error because of an old package that still had config stuff hanging around.
Try running
sudo apt-get --purge remove ruby-rvm
That should take care of the permission error and let you install RVM as a normal user under $HOME/.rvm

I'm sure there's a more elegant way to fix this, but I ran into the same issue and was kinda in a hurry, so I went for a quick and dirty workaround:
$ curl -s https://raw.github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/master/binscripts/rvm-installer > foo.sh
$ chmod 755 foo.sh
Then edit line 162, and add -k to the curl command:
$ vim foo.sh
162 if curl -Lk https://github.com/${_repo}/rvm/tarball/${_branch} -o ${rvm_archives_path}/${_repo}-rvm-${_branch}.tgz
Then run the script:
$ ./foo.sh --branch stable
Like I said, not ideal, but it got me where I needed to be quickly.

Can you try this:
$ curl -s raw.github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/master/binscripts/rvm-installer | bash -s stable
or
$ curl -s raw.github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/master/binscripts/rvm-installer | sudo bash -s stable
depending on your permissions. That should help. It helped me! :)

Put this in your .bashrc instead (without echo
)
[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"
And restart your terminal.
