Middleman init error

Middleman init error

I have installed the Middleman gem 4.2.1 several times and I can not create a directory with middleman. I keep getting the same error whether I do middleman init my_new_site or I initiate it from within an existing directory my_new_site $ middleman init either way I can not get this to work. I have un-installed, re-installed, cleaned up middleman, bundle update, bundle downdate and I still can not get this to work.
I did do a Ruby Gems update gem update –system and I am using Ruby
ruby 2.3.1p112 (2016-04-26) [x86_64-linux-gnu]

The error is:

WARN: Unresolved specs during Gem::Specification.reset:

and my middleman gems are:

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

middleman (4.2.1)
middleman-autoprefixer (2.6.3, 2.6.0)
middleman-cli (4.2.1)
middleman-core (4.2.1, 3.3.12)
middleman-deploy (1.0.0)
middleman-livereload (3.4.3)
middleman-sprockets (3.5.0, 3.4.2)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank You,
Scott

Can you try removing the 3.x gems? middleman-core should be bringing in the dotenv library with it. So my guess is that cli 4 is incorrectly loading core 3?

[scott-schafer]

I removed all Middleman gems and installed the following and I also installed the dotenv gem and
I am still getting the error.

Installed Middleman Gems:

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

middleman (4.2.1)
middleman-cli (4.2.1)
middleman-core (4.2.1)
dotenv (2.2.0)

The current error after re-installing Middleman gems:

Do I need to install something else?

@scott-schafer I had a similar issue. I don't think it is middleman specific, I was able to resolve by running: gem cleanup

[scott-schafer]

Thank You, That worked like a charm! I used the gem cleanupcommand and then reinstalled Middleman and it is working again. Thank You ngmaloney !!!
