rails console on openshift

Question

I deployed my rails application to openshift it works well but I cannot run 'rails console' on production server. It gives me this error. How can I solve this? I tried to update rubygems but it also gives permission denied error and I couldn't make it too.

rails c error:

Answer 1

I ran into the same issue, try running it like this:

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails console

Also make sure you are running it in ~/app-root/repo when you run it

Answer 2

To update rubygems:

gem update --system

If that doesn't solve the problem try Spring's suggestion and run:

gem pristine --all

Answer 3

I couldn't get any of the gem install or bundle exec solutions to work while running the 4.1.4 Rails cartridge on OpenShift. My solution was running RAILS_ENV=production bin/rails c in app-root/repo.

Answer 4

The problem is that there are multiple bundle executables and the system is using the wrong one.

Locate the correct bundle executable. In my case it was located at ~/.gem/bin/bundle.

If you can't find it, install it gem install bundler.

Then run ~/.gem/bin/bundle exec rails console production inside ~/app-root/repo
