Problem with importing -> perobs

[BerndSchmitt]

Hello, I installed postrunner as root via gem2.1 install postrunner with no errors or warnings. Then I tried to import already downloaded fit-data via postrunner import /ACTIVITY and run into errors (perobs). What can I do to fix that or to get more information about the error?

Thanks for the software and best regards Bernd

Same issue here

Something is not right with the Ruby installation. For some reason it cannot find the PEROBS gem. This could be caused by missing permissions on the directories where the gems were installed.

gem environment

will tell you the location and the load paths it will use. Make sure permissions and path settings are correct. And Ruby 2.1 is no longer supported. Please use at least Ruby 2.4.

I had the same issue, my problem was using

sudo gem install postrunner

and then postrunner without sudo. So, run sudo postrunner or do the following (note that 2.7.0 is my ruby version):

sudo gem uninstall postrunner perobs
gem install postrunner perobs --user-install
~/.gem/ruby/2.7.0/bin/postrunner import /media/....

to avoid ugly last command, just append ruby bin path into your $PATH in file ~/.bashrc and then you can simply run postrunner without sudo:

PATH="$PATH:~/.gem/ruby/2.7.0/bin"

I've improved the installation description to cover the user install process as well. I've also included some debugging hints for permission problems. It will be included in the next release.
