Rails segmentation fault byebug

Question

I'm trying to test out my rails environment and create a test rail app, but I'm having problems with it. When I try to run rails server, this is what I get:

/Users/Andrea/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.1/gems/byebug-5.0.0/lib/byebug/byebug.bundle: [BUG] Segmentation fault at 0x00000000000418
ruby 2.2.1p85 (2015-02-26 revision 49769) [x86_64-darwin14]

Followed by another 900+ lines of detailing loaded features. At the end, terminal gives me a note saying

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong and how should I fix it? I have tried uninstalling and installing sqlite3, then running bundle update and bundle install, but it does not work. Would appreciate any help!

Answer 1

So I'm not sure if this is a general solution to the problem. However, I got

/Users/Mark/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.5@insight-app/gems/json-1.8.3/lib/json/ext/parser.bundle: [BUG] Segmentation fault ruby 2.0.0p481 (2014-05-08 revision 45883) [universal.x86_64-darwin14]

and reloaded the rvm environ by doing:

rvm use ruby-2.2.5 (or whatever version is appropriate)

after the bundle install and I could then proceed with booting up rails. Hopefully someone will be able to shed some light on how general this is, and why it works
