Troubleshooting

Failures regarding Ruby version

Check if the system has correct Ruby version by typing the following in your terminal:

$ ruby -v

If the system is using any version lower than 2.4.0, use your Ruby version manager of choice (such as rvm, rbenv, or chruby) to ensure your Ruby version is greater than 2.4.0 when using the gem.
