  <p>Yesterday I had went through the InstallRails guide, and everything worked perfectly. I had RVM installed, Rails installed, Ruby installed etc. Then I had to change the Ruby version because one of my sites was using an older version of Ruby (not sure how I did this though).</p>
  
  <p>Now, somehow it seems that RVM and Rails aren't installed. What do I do?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Edit:</strong></p>
  
  <p>I moved the contents of <code>.profile</code> to <code>.bash_profile</code>, changed the name of <code>.profile</code> to <code>.pprofile</code>, and ran <code>\curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable</code> again. It gave me the error: <code>RVM sourcing line not found for Bash, rerun this command with '--auto-dotfiles' flag to fix it.</code>. I did that, and the it gave me the error <code>WARNING: You have '~/.profile' file, you might want to load it</code> again. It seems that <code>--auto-dotfiles</code> creates a <code>.profile</code> file.</p>
