Description

I am on a Ubuntu 14.04 machine. I installed the rvm package for Ubuntu and then I tried to install some rubies. I tried with ruby 2.7.1, ruby 2.6.6, ruby 2.6.0 but all my attempts failed: 

me@HOME:~/Downloads$ rvm install 2.7.1

Failed download
There has been an error fetching the ruby interpreter. Halting the installation.

It seems that the installations are failing to create the ruby-*.tar.bz2.part file, because the permission is denied. What is the download location? How can I solve this issue?

Hi @knzudgt and thanks for reporting this issue.

Had you rebooted?

Case yes, can you try rvm fix-permissions system ? (Maybe it'll ask your password).

@raelgc thanks, I had to reboot the machine. Now I am able to install rubies.
