bundle install not running from my post-update hook

Question

I've setup a post-update hook for my project. I have a bare repository (/var/git/myproject) which I push to, and a live repository (/var/www/myproject) where my app is running. I also included `bundle install` and `bundle exec rake db:migrate` to install gems and update db. Below is my post-update hook ``` #!/bin/bash echo "Pulling changes into Live..." cd /var/www/myproject || exit unset GIT_DIR git pull origin master # check if ruby app if [ -f /var/www/myproject/Gemfile ]; then echo " Ruby app detected..." bundle install --without development test bundle exec rake db:migrate # migrate database fi exec git-update-server-info ``` When I push my changes though I get the following message (notice the "bundle command not found" error): ``` martyn@localhost:~/www/myproject$ git push -u origin master martyn@192.168.0.100's password: Counting objects: 832, done.

Accepted Answer

Your hook shell ins't the same than the one you logged in (and which has the proper `PATH`)

You can try using at the beginning your your hook script:

```
#!/bin/bash -l
```

(See this answer

The `-l` parameter executes the command in a login shell, which means that it inherits your path and other settings from your shell profile.

)

Or you can make sure your script gets the same environment than your current session, by adding in the first lines of your hook:

```
$ source $HOME/.bash_profile # single user RVM setup
$ source /etc/profile        # multi user RVM setup
```

Or (final alternative) you can add (before calling `bundle`) (for a single-user rvm installation)

```
[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"
```
