Those are not particularly helpful as they are not ubuntu specific. For example http://docs.rubygems.org/read/chapter/3 suggests gem install rails when on Ubuntu it should be sudo gem install rails. Google for ubuntu install ruby rails will I am sure give lots of hits. I use this script to install it for use with apache and mysql. You would have to tweak the folder names. Also check whether I am fetching the latest version of rubygems, it may have been upgraded since I used this last. Note that there are other solutions which avoid apache and mysql but this is how I do it. Install apache and mysql first, preferably (see below). # this derived from http://www.hackido.com/2009/04/install-ruby-rails-on-ubuntu-904-jaunty.html # bits for building stuff sudo apt-get install build-essential # ruby and mysql stuff, this assumes that the lamp stack with mysql has already been installed sudo apt-get install ruby ri rdoc libmysql-ruby ruby1.8-dev irb1.8 libdbd-mysql-perl libdbi-perl libmysql-ruby1.8 libmysqlclient15off libnet-daemon-perl libplrpc-perl libreadline-ruby1.8 libruby1.8 rdoc1.8 ri1.8 ruby1.8 irb libopenssl-ruby libopenssl-ruby1.8 libhtml-template-perl wget -N -P /home/colinl/downloads http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/60718/rubygems-1.3.5.tgz tar xvzf /home/colinl/downloads/rubygems-1.3.5.tgz cd rubygems-1.3.5 sudo ruby setup.rb cd .. rm -rf rubygems-1.3.5 echo " making symlinks - not sure if this will always be necessary, must be done if gem -v does not work" sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gem1.8 /usr/local/bin/gem sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ruby1.8 /usr/local/bin/ruby sudo ln -s /usr/bin/rdoc1.8 /usr/local/bin/rdoc sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ri1.8 /usr/local/bin/ri sudo ln -s /usr/bin/irb1.8 /usr/local/bin/irb # rails latest version sudo gem install rails # any other versions needed #sudo gem install rails --version 2.3.2 To install the lamp stack and mysql - preferably do this before install ruby and rails # this installs the lamp stack, the ^ is important.
