How to get Ruby 1.8.7 via rbenv?

Question

ruby

To deploy the application, I need to install Ruby 1.8.7 on Ubuntu 14.04. The project documentation itself recommends doing this via rbenv.
I installed rbenv using this article. Then I went to the folder where I would put the project and wrote rbenv install 1.8.7. I was told this:

Then I did this: rbenv install 1.8.7-p374
That's it, Ruby was installed. Next, I cloned the project from GitHub, did a bundle install, and got "rbenv: version `1.9.3-p448' is not installed". What's wrong?

Answer 1

Most likely, the project requires version 1.9.3-p448 (check the .ruby-version file in the project). Just install it, and everything will be ok (version 1.8.7 was still used by mammoths).
