Using Ruby 2.0 on Amazon OpsWorks

Question

I\'d like to use Ruby 2.0 on Amazon OpsWorks, so I\'m trying the following:

• Choose custom cookbooks and set them to my fork of https://github.com/aws/opsworks-cook

Answer 1

Deploy ruby 2.0 with rails 4.0 on AWS opsworks

update stack json

{ "opsworks" : { "ruby_version" : "2.0.0" } }

update the rails app layer.

in your 'Rails App Layer', make sure you upgraded rubygem version to be 2.X (default is 1.8.24)

otherwise you will getting the require mysql2/mysql.rb [loadError] :(

LoadError: cannot load such file -- mysql2/mysql2
