Error installing Ruby with RVM (fails installing RubyGems)

ruby, rubygems, rvm

Solution

This was a bug in the earlier version of RVM.

Update RVM:

rvm get stable # OR:
rvm get head   # OR if none worked:
curl -L get.rvm.io | bash -s stable

The installer also does update (in fact latest `rvm get ...` just calls the installer)

Problem

I'm trying to install Ruby 1.9.3 via RVM. However, when it gets to the point of installing RubyGems, I get this: curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 The requested url does not exist: 'http://production.cf.rubygems.org/rubygems/rubygems-.tgz' Trying ftp:// URL instead. % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- 0:05:00 --:--:-- 0curl: (28) connect() timed out! There was an error, please check /home/jjw0c4/.rvm/log/ruby-1.9.3-p125/*.log There has been an error while trying to fetch the source. Halting the installation. My guess is the URL "`/rubygems-.tgz`", shouldn't there be a version number on the end?
