Bundler cannot find a version of a gem, but gem install with the same name works

Question

I\'ve created a gem, and for some reason this one keeps bugging me, and refuses to install properly through bundler.

Here\'s the Gemfile:

source         


        

Answer 1

Do you have rubygems listed as a remote source?

Your Gemfile should have source :rubygems at the top of the file, and $ gem sources should return at a minimum:

*** CURRENT SOURCES ***

http://rubygems.org/

If it's not listed, you can add it with $ gem sources -a http://rubygems.org

Answer 2

And after a whole day of googling I found this status update from Dec 12: http://twitter.com/rubygems_status/status/279019743166476288

bundle install --full-index

Seems to get the index directly from rubygems instead of from a cloudfront cache.

I had a look at the index, and there is quite a diffence in the two indexes, so if you just released a gem or use a newly released gem, you might have to add --full-index in order to get the proper index.
