Gems installed from source other than rubygems aren't used by bundler

[justinbburris]

Bundler is saying gems, which have been downloaded from Github, are missing.

Here's the error I'm seeing

# Broken up for clarity
~/.rbenv/versions/1.9.3-p448/gemsets/global/gems/bundler-1.5.2/lib/bundler/source/git.rb:179:in `rescue in load_spec_files':

git@github.com:vitrue/named_logger.git (at master) is not yet checked out. 
Run `bundle install` first. (Bundler::GitError)

What's interesting is that these gems are installed, but they're installed in a different location from those that come from rubygems.org

Ruby gems are installed
project/.gems/gems

Github gems are installed
project/.gems/bundler/gems

These gems also don't appear when I run gem list

Any thoughts on why bundler or gem wouldn't see these gems?

Thanks!

hey @jburris , thanks for your clarity in the report. I have some suspicions about how your setup is done, but I'd appreciate more info on how exactly to reproduce your setup or error. Thanks!

[justinbburris]

Sure! So I'm running bundle install and then I'm running bundle exec rspec

If this is a configuration issue, I'd love to fix it :) What do you want to know about my config?

Sorry for not providing all of the setup details, I thought I had included those in the original report.

I'm running ruby 1.9.3p448 and rbenv-gemset version 0.5.3, I have a .rbenv-gemsets file that has the path .gems specified in it.

I'm experiencing the same problem.

My setup:

• Mac OS X 10.7.5
• zsh (with oh-my-zsh and bundler plugin activated)
• installed rbenv and rbenv-gemset with brew
• bundler in version 1.5.2 (but also tried 1.5.1 (rc), 1.3.6 and 1.3.5)
• currently ruby 2.1.0 (but also fails with 2.0)
• .rbenv-gemsets (set to a project gemset)
• three <git gems> in Gemfile
• bundle install works as expected
  • installs normal gems to .project-name/gems/
  • install git gems to .project-name/bundler/gems
• But fails to do bundle exec any-command with failure to find the first <git-gem> in a location like this:
  • /usr/local/var/rbenv/versions/2.1.0/lib/ruby/gems/2.1.0/gems/<git-gem>-<commit-id>
  • Which is actually a location where bundler (afaik) should never (even without gemsets) try to find a <git-gem>

thanks, @0robustus1 . I'll need the contents of your Gemfile, and I'll look into this shortly. And just for clarity's sake, let me know the output for rbenv --version and rbenv gemset version.

@jburris , are you using oh-my-zsh as well? Or just plain normal bash?

[justinbburris]

@jf I'm using ZSH but I don't have oh-my-zsh installed.

[0robustus1]

@jf You can see the Gemfile here.

The jstree-rails gem is where it all goes to hell, when bundler is trying to load it (but just commenting it out and doing bundle install again on reveals that this happens with the other git gems too).

hey @0robustus1 , what is the content of your gemset file? is it .project-name?

Also (for both @jburris and @0robustus1): how exactly do you trigger your error? What are you doing or what do you have to do to trigger your errors? I've done a bundle install with the Gemfile @0robustus1 has given, for example. But i'll need more help in knowing how to trigger the error (it's not "any command", for example. bundle exec rails and bundle exec rake has no problem).

[0robustus1]

Yes it is .project-name.

I'm experiencing the problem when i use bundle exec rails c and bundle exec rake. But so far i have encountered no command which doesn't trigger the error.

[jf]

Edit: ok, sorry, hang on... My bad! Going to redo my bundle install again.

[jf]

Ok, I'm really, really, trying to try to find a way to duplicate this thing, but... I think what it is is that you've got some code somewhere that triggers these git gems. While I could try and figure things out myself, I'd appreciate your help just making it easier for me. The first thing I actually want to find out is, is this problem present in pure rbenv? ie. if you run it without using a gemset.

Can you reproduce a minimal rails app with a minimal Gemfile that would still trigger the error?

[0robustus1]

No if i don't use a gemset (or uninstall rbenv-gemset - just tried it) bundle exec works as expected.

I will try to come up with a minimal Gemfile.

[jf]

I assume you also did a bundle install again after the uninstall rbenv-gemset?

minimal Gemfile + exact instructions, pls! Thanks.

[jf]

Guys, I am not able to duplicate this problem, and in fact have had success using rbenv-gemset with bundler and a gem installed from git (I've verified that the gem is definitely in use). I see no reason why this wouldnt be the case with other gems as well, and unless you can show me how to duplicate this, I'm inclined to think that this is a problem on your end. If you want, you can try the following: rm -rf Gemfile.lock $PROJECT_GEMSET_DIR/bundler $PROJECT_GEMSET_DIR/cache/bundler and then bundle install again. And then let me know how this works for you. I'm sure we'll all appreciate it!

[0robustus1]

Ok, i've determined a minimal failing example:

mkdir failing_bundle
cd failing_bundle
rbenv local 2.1.0
echo '.sample' > .rbenv-gemsets

# copy the Gemfile here

bundle install
bundle exec rake
# Failure

And the minimal Gemfile:

source 'https://rubygems.org'

gem 'jstree-rails', :git => 'git://github.com/tristanm/jstree-rails.git'

It might also be interesting to note, that if i install the gem (the git-based one), outside of gemsets with bundler
and then add a gemset and perform the bundle install bundle exec routine it works. Probably bundler tries to look in the global location and finds the gem there...

And no. Neither performing your deletion commands, nor deleting the whole gemset fixes the issue for me.

[jf]

Ok, thanks for the update - and the instructions!

I'd like to check a few more details:

• how is your zsh installed and setup?
• how is your ruby installed? using ruby-build?
• how did you install your bundler? Outside of a gemset?
