title: Why is Bundler unable to fetch gem metadata?
body: <p>So very new to rails. I managed to install <em>ruby</em> and then <em>rails framework</em> on <em>Fedora 17</em>.</p>
  
  <p>Here are the summary of steps I did to install ruby and rails framework:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p><code>yum install make openssh-clients gcc libxml2 libxml2-devel libxslt libxslt-devel python-devel</code></p></li>
  <li><p><code>sudo bash -s stable &lt; &lt;(curl -sk https://raw.github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/master/binscripts/rvm-installer)</code></p></li>
  <li><p><code>source /etc/profile.d/rvm.sh</code></p></li>
  <li><p><code>rvm install ruby-1.9.2-p290 --with-openssl</code></p></li>
  <li><p><code>rvm use ruby-1.9.2-p290 --default</code></p></li>
  <li><p><code>rvm all do gem update --system</code></p></li>
  <li><p><code>rvm all do gem install rails</code></p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Well.. So far so good.. Just wanted to test if the installation was perfect. 
  I created a hello world sample (<em>test.rb</em>) to test ruby installation</p>
  
  <pre><code>#!/usr/bin/env ruby
  
  puts "hello World"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and running this with <code>./test.rb</code> it works fine.</p>
  
  <p>Now when I was test rails framework installation by creating a new project using </p>
  
  <pre><code>rails new demo
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I receive the error </p>
  
  <pre><code>Fetching gem metadata from https://rubygems.org/.Unfortunately, a fatal error has occurred. Please see the Bundler
  troubleshooting documentation at http://bit.ly/bundler-issues. Thanks!
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What am I missing here? Or what have I done additionally which I was not suppose to do?
  Looked into <a href="https://github.com/carlhuda/bundler/blob/master/ISSUES.md" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/carlhuda/bundler/blob/master/ISSUES.md</a>. Could not figure out. Has anyone come across similar issue and found a way to deal with it?</p>
