unable to bundle install bootstrap-sass -v '2.2.2.0' -

Question

New to RoR and taking the One Month Rails class (onemonthrails.com)

I'm trying to import bootstrap.

ruby 2.0.0p247

rails 4.0.0

Here's my Gemfile (showing only the 'bootstrap-sass'line) :

Bootstrap Gem

gem 'bootstrap-sass', '~> 2.2.2.0'

And this is the output when running 'bundle install'

Make sure that `gem install bootstrap-sass -v '2.2.2.0'` succeeds before bundling.

Answer 1

I've heard of some weird permission bugs right around this version

You could try installing directly into command line gem install bootstrap-sass -v 2.2.2.0

and then run bundle install

Worst case scenario you should still be able to run sudo gem install bootstrap-sass -v 2.2.2.0

But you should be very careful with sudo. It can leave you open to system vulnerabilities and it can lead to some weird problems down the road with gems being installed all over the place. Long story short, don't use sudo carelessly.
