Installed Ruby 1.9.3 with RVM but command line doesn't show ruby -v
RubyUbuntuRvmRuby Problem Overview
Here's the console output:
sergio@sergio-VirtualBox:~$ rvm list
rvm rubies
ruby-1.9.3 [ i386 ]
sergio@sergio-VirtualBox:~$ rvm use 1.9.3
Using /usr/share/ruby-rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3
sergio@sergio-VirtualBox:~$ ruby -v
The program 'ruby' can be found in the following packages:
* ruby1.8
* ruby1.9.1
Try: sudo apt-get install <selected package>
So what's going on? Do I need to reboot my machine? Or should it work right off the bat? I'm using Ubuntu 11.10, any help is appreciated.

Solution 1 - Ruby
You have broken version of RVM. Ubuntu does something to RVM that produces lots of errors, the only safe way of fixing for now is to:
sudo apt-get --purge remove ruby-rvm
sudo rm -rf /usr/share/ruby-rvm /etc/rvmrc /etc/profile.d/rvm.sh
open new terminal and validate environment is clean from old RVM settings (should be no output):
env | grep rvm
if there was output, try to open new terminal, if it does not help then restart your computer.
\curl -L https://get.rvm.io |
bash -s stable --ruby --autolibs=enable --auto-dotfiles
If you find you need some hand-holding, take a look at Installing Ruby on Ubuntu 12.04, which gives a bit more explanation.
Solution 2 - Ruby
- Open Terminal.
- Go to Edit -> Profile Preferences.
- Select the Title & command Tab in the window opened.
- Mark the checkbox Run command as login shell.
- close the window and restart the Terminal.

I ran into a similar issue today - my ruby version didn't match my rvm installs.
> ruby -v
ruby 2.0.0p481
> rvm list
rvm rubies
ruby-2.1.2 [ x86_64 ]
=* ruby-2.2.1 [ x86_64 ]
ruby-2.2.3 [ x86_64 ]
Also, rvm current
failed.
> rvm current
Warning! PATH is not properly set up, '/Users/randallreed/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.1/bin' is not at first place...
The error message recommended this useful command, which resolved the issue for me:
> rvm get stable --auto-dotfiles
