I've tried googling for the problem and found two posts that explain the problem that I have first is a Stackoveflow Post which is pretty close to what I've got, but upon further inspection I found that the solution given in that post was not what I needed another is this post that seems to discuss the exact problem that I have but doesn't give a solution anyone have any idea what I should do??

Ruby Version => 1.9.2

Rails Version => oh come on it doesn't even tell rails version it just prints out another error

Could not find linecache-0.43 in any of the sources
Try running `bundle install`.

any ideas what I'm doing wrong?? any help would be immensely appreciated

Answer 1

You should try installing linecache19 instead of linecache. The gem you are trying to install is incompatible with Ruby version 1.9.2.

This is also suggested by the error message:

Can't handle 1.9.x yet

Answer 2

"debugger" gems has worked more flawless for me lately. I switched from ruby-debug19 to debugger which installs the dependencies without any hassle.

Answer 3

1.9.2-p136 + RVM. Worked using ruby-debug19 which installs linecache19 as a dependency:

gem install ruby-debug19 -- --with-ruby-include=$rvm_path/src/ruby-1.9.2-p136/
