I do not have access to the rails command in my application folder

Question

I have rails installed on a machine (Ubuntu 12.04) and have used for a couple of Rails projects. I have access to the rails command in my home folder and any other folder I create on my machine. I created a new directory for a project. I also created a .rvmrc file with the following content:

rvm --create ruby-2.0.0-p0@gemset

After I created the .rvmrc file I ran the following commands:

rvm install ruby-2.0.0-p0
rvm use ruby-2.0.0-p0
rvm gemset create project.me
rvm gemset use project.me

Everything looks good up to the point. When I try to create the rails project with:

rails new .

I get the following error:

The program 'rails' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
sudo apt-get install rails

What do I not understand? I know that I can create a new project with

rails new project.me

And everything will work fine, but why is this not working? Thanks for the help guys!

Answer 1

Maybe you don't have rails gem installed in your gemset.

Try out gem install rails, after using the specific gemset.
