Ruby-build: Ruby 2.2.1 install failed - 'rdoc'

Created on 8 Mar 2015  路  6Comments  路  Source: rbenv/ruby-build

I tried to install Ruby 2.2.1 and got the following error:

BUILD FAILED (Ubuntu 14.10 using ruby-build 20150303)

Last 10 log lines:

Killed
uncommon.mk:427: recipe for target 'rdoc' failed
make: *** [rdoc] Error 137

Is there any known solution?

Thanks.

Might be related to #728 but I'm not sure.

Try disabling the doc building step like here https://github.com/sstephenson/ruby-build/issues/156#issuecomment-54922357

RUBY_CONFIGURE_OPTS=--disable-install-doc rbenv install ...

@mislav It works. Thanks

Can you enlight me were to put that?

ATM I do:

echo 'gem: --no-document' >> /usr/local/etc/gemrc &&\
    mkdir /src && cd /src && git clone https://github.com/sstephenson/ruby-build.git &&\
    cd /src/ruby-build && ./install.sh &&\
    cd / && rm -rf /src/ruby-build && ruby-build 2.2.3 /usr/local
# Abort script when any command fails.
# Useful to avoid having to chain all commands on one line with `&&`.
set -e

echo 'gem: --no-document' > /usr/local/etc/gemrc
mkdir -p /src
git clone https://github.com/sstephenson/ruby-build.git /src/ruby-build
/src/ruby-build/install.sh
rm -rf /src/ruby-build
RUBY_CONFIGURE_OPTS=--disable-install-doc ruby-build 2.2.3 /usr/local

thx

Same issue in an instance in amazon lightsail. Solved by action stated within https://github.com/rbenv/ruby-build/issues/729#issuecomment-77776590
