"Warning: You have '~/.profile' file" when installing RVM
installation, ruby, ruby-on-rails, rvm
Solution
may this can help you, bc it seems to be exactly the same problem:
This warning says you have a file `~/.profile` - this file is loaded as a last resort in Bash when there is no `~/.bash_profile` - and the installer found both files, this means that you might be expecting some configuration from `~/.profile` to be available on shell start but it would not be because it was not read. To fix the problem you can either
- remove `~/.profile` (in case you do not use it),
- move content of `~/.profile` to `~/.bash_profile`, or
- add the folowing line to `~/.bash_profile` (you need to edit the file): source `~/.profile`

Problem
In following http://installrails.com/steps/install_rvm_and_ruby This is the output I get: ``` ~/code/ruby \curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 184 100 184 0 0 720 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 721 100 20511 100 20511 0 0 11941 0 0:00:01 0:00:01 --:--:-- 20676 Downloading https://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/archive/stable.tar.gz Upgrading the RVM installation in /Users/adamzerner/.rvm/ RVM PATH line found in /Users/adamzerner/.profile /Users/adamzerner/.bashrc /Users/adamzerner/.zshrc.

I had RVM installed, Rails installed, Ruby installed etc. Then I had to change the Ruby version because one of my sites was using an older version of Ruby (not sure how I did this though). Now, somehow it seems that RVM and Rails aren't installed. What do I do? Edit: I moved the contents of `.profile` to `.bash_profile`, changed the name of `.profile` to `.pprofile`, and ran `\curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable` again. It gave me the error: `RVM sourcing line not found for Bash, rerun this command with '--auto-dotfiles' flag to fix it.`. I did that, and the it gave me the error `WARNING: You have '~/.profile' file, you might want to load it` again. It seems that `--auto-dotfiles` creates a `.profile` file. ``` ~ open .profile ~ \curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 184 100 184 0 0 596 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 595 100 20511 100 20511 0 0 26570 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 26570 Downloading https://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/archive/stable.tar.gz Upgrading the RVM installation in /Users/adamzerner/.rvm/ RVM PATH line found in /Users/adamzerner/.bashrc /Users/adamzerner/.bash_profile /Users/adamzerner/.zshrc.
