Install ruby gems

deco81 · 06-16-2010, 03:42 PM

Hi,
I'm having a problem on a new virtual machine I set up. I'm able to surf the internet and install packages with apt-get but when I try to install gems with gem I get "connect reset after n requests". It seems like it eventually succeeds which is fine for installing a gem without dependencies, but with large gem packages it becomes very tedious.

How can I fix this so I don't get so many time outs?

Thanks!

Sounds like you might need to choose different mirrors, first few are probably outdated or timing out.
