Whatever you want to run, say your version of ruby in /some/dir/ruby, needs to appear earlier in the path than the system version, say /usr/bin/ruby... period. It's not rocket science. However, it's not totally straightforward, either. Some updated command locations require that the shell be rehashed after changing the path cuz the shell may cache the location - hash -r, or equivalent. That said, it's usually pilot error messing with path.echo "PATH: $PATH"before setting and after to see what's going on. then it's just a matter of figuring out which ruby comes first.Will On 3/20/23 11:33 AM, chilli.names...@gmail.com wrote:This is the only way I can get it to work right without errorexport PATH="$PATH:$HOME/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/opt/local/share/man:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin"It doesn't like :$PATH at the endOn Mar 20, 2023, at 09:27, chilli.names...@gmail.com wrote: I am closer, but my $PATH is still messed up.

You always want `/opt/local/bin/` to be near the start of your path. Only stuff that you specifically want to override MacPorts should be before it. (Examples of things you may want before: RVM or NVM or any of the version managers that put things in your home)Thanks, —Mark _______________________ Mark E.

The system ruby showing up instead of MacPorts-installed Ruby would be *probably* because your $PATH has `/opt/local/bin` *after* `/usr/bin`. Typically, one wants to have Macports (or other third-party package systems) *before* /usr/local/bin and /usr/bin. -a On Sat, Mar 11, 2023 at 1:46 PM chilli.names...@gmail.com <chilli.names...@gmail.com> wrote: root@mac:~$ ruby -S gem install coltrane ERROR: Error installing coltrane: activesupport requires Ruby version >= 2.7.0.Unfortunately, Mojave: ruby 2.3.7p456 (2018-03-28 revision 63024) [universal.x86_64-darwin18] So I install ruby 2.7.7root@mac:~$ port -vsN install ruby27 .... ---> Cleaning ruby27 ---> Removing work directory for ruby27 ---> Updating database of binaries ---> Scanning binaries for linking errors ---> No broken files found. ---> No broken ports found. ---> Some of the ports you installed have notes: ruby27 has the following notes: To make this the default Ruby (i.e., the version run by the 'ruby', 'gem' or 'bundle' commands), run: sudo port select --set ruby ruby27 root@mac:~$ port select --set ruby ruby27 Selecting 'ruby27' for 'ruby' succeeded.
