开发者_如何学运维

Any ideas?

nm, I found it. I had to open a new terminal. I also uninstalled a prior version of rails somewhere along the way, within the same rvm rubie, and might have killed the rails bin file.

I got rid of this error by simply deleting the /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin that appeared in the PATH variable definition in /etc/profile.
