“RVM is not a function” error

So, you just installed rvm and various ruby versions. Now, you are trying to run 'rvm use  ... '

But it throws an error:

RVM is not a function, selecting rubies with 'rvm use ...' will not work.

What do you do? 

1. In terminal, Go to Edit > Profile Preferences

2. Select the "Title and Command" Tab

3. Check the "Run command as a login shell" checkbox 

4. Restart the terminal and use 'rvm use ...'. It works...! 

Some details on what login shell is: https://rvm.io/support/faq/#shell_login

Cheers.

Hey all,

This is Manish Puri a ROR developer from Mumbai, India..  Practical is the word for me. I never let tough situations affect my work. I do what is to be done.

I am working with this amazing technology called Ruby On Rails from past 5 years and still I feel excited about every new challenge I face during coding.

I had worked on projects ranging from educational domain to CRM, Helpdesk system to various other projects in legal domains. I have gained a good insight of the US law while working on a couple of projects in the legal system.

I intend to share my learning, findings, and stuff on Rails in this blog.. Do let me know if you would like to hear something specific on ROR.. you can also shoot me a email at manishspuri@gmail.com
