It's most likely trying to validate the existence of a command called "su - rvmuser -c", which of course doesn't exist. That makes the provider unsuitable, and so there is no usable (and therefore no default) provider. If you change the command to just "su", it should work, although then you may want to wrap gemcmd in another method that adds the other arguments.
