Just delete rvm folder (to remove rvm, rubies, gems etc.)

or

rvm implode

    I'm new on Ruby on Rails and I have some problems with configuration. I don't know what to do. I installed many times ruby, rails and Gems because report problems. I read a lot of questions on stack overflow and nothing for solve. I try now uninstalling everything and I have some errors when I trying to remove Gems, :

    I report some problems on the terminal and I don't know how to send a log, etc.. It's that correct for uninstall:

    Remove Gems: $ gem clean -Uninstall ruby: $ rvm uninstall ruby (#this will uninstall all ruby's installed?) or need: -Uninstall by version:

    $ rvm uninstall 2.1.0 
    

    and others version 2.0.0 and 2.1.1

    -Uninstall rvm:

    $ rvm repair
    $ rvm cleanup
    $ rvm implode
    

    and for now install everything again!?

    When I try I have this:
