How do I change my ruby version to 2.6.5 using mac os?-CodePudding

I need to change my ruby version to 2.6.5 to get a dev environment running for an existing app, however I get a strange error when I try to install it.

Macbook pro

Ventura 13.1

ruby -v: 3.0.0

node -v: 16.12.0

I have RVM installed, when I enter in the terminal to switch ruby versions this is what happens:

rvm use 2.6.5

Required ruby-2.6.5 is not installed.
To install do: 'rvm install "ruby-2.6.5"'

Next I try to install 2.6.5

rvm install 2.6.5

There has been an error while running make. Halting the installation.

The make.log file is just a massive code snippet of ruby trying to make the change.
Any ideas on how I can fix this?

As per advice from anothermh, uninstalled rbenv and brew versions of Ruby

Uninstallation

brew uninstall ruby for removing brew version

Use accepted answer on this SO article for removing rbenv

Install Ruby via RVM

Install RVM as per instructions || as per this

rvm install (ruby version)

rvm --default use (ruby version)

can use rvm list to see available ruby versions.

Using rvm:

Install the ruby version:

rvm install 2.6.5

Set and use default 2.6.5:

rvm use 2.6.5 --default
