rbenv asing for 2.7.0 when version 3.0.3 is installed

[cecileRx]

Hello Everyone!
Can someone explain why rbenv still ask for version '2.7.0' when I got installed the '3.0.3' version?
(this keeps me from installing Rails)

here are my terminal logs:

brew uninstall --force rbenv ruby-build
exec zsh
➜  ~ brew install rbenv

Hi, I spotted the problem by looking at this line:

rbenv: version `2.7.0' is not installed (set by /Users/rougnaux/.ruby-version)

It looks like you have a /Users/rougnaux/.ruby-version file, which sets the "local" Ruby version to 2.7.0. This was likely created by running rbenv local 2.7.0 while in your home directory. This is probably not what you want, since any sub-directory of /Users/rougnaux (basically, everything under your user) will inherit that version, but you want your "global" version to be 3.0.3.

You should rm /Users/rougnaux/.ruby-version to fix this.

"Local" ruby version are meant primarily for project directories. For example, you can run rbenv local 2.7.0 to set it as a local Ruby version while in the directory /Users/rougnaux/projects/myapp. Then, everything under that directory will use Ruby 2.7.0. However, it's probably not a good idea to run rbenv local ... in your home directory.

Hello Mislav, Thanks for your detailed and clear answer. I am wondering how this file could have been created 😉 Anyway, I found a (bad) solution in opening this file and changing the line by 3.0.3. But as you say it's an absurd idea to have a local version in my home directory, so I will remove it! Thanks again, C
