RVM and Jenkins setup

Question

I’m a fresher when it comes to Jenkins CI and I’ve installed RVM in my remote Jenkins. When I try to execute the following shell commands,

#!/bin/bash -x
source ~/.bashrc
rvm use 1.9.3@rails-3.2.3

I get the the error

+ source /var/lib/jenkins/.bashrc
++ PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games:/var/lib/jenkins/.rvm/bin:/var/lib/jenkins/.rvm/bin
+ rvm use 1.9.3@rails-3.2.3
RVM is not a function, selecting rubies with 'rvm use ...' will not work.
You need to change your terminal settings to allow shell login.
Please visit https://rvm.io/workflow/screen/ for example.

Where am I going wrong?

Answer 1

adding a shebang to the build commands in jenkins fixed this for me

    #!/usr/bin/env bash
    rvm use 2.0.0
    bundle install
    rake test
    ...

Answer 2

Try this:

. $(/home/RVM_USER/.rvm/bin/rvm env 1.9.3@rails-3.2.3 --path)

make sure you run the stable RVM:

rvm get stable
