I just added pagination to my website, and everything works locally. In my local \_config.yml I have:

```
gems: [jekyll-paginate-v2]
pagination:
  enabled: true
  per_page: 3
  permalink: '/page/:num/'
  title_suffix: ' - page :num'
  limit: 0
  sort_field: 'date'
  sort_reverse: true

```

In my local and remote Gemfiles I have:

```
group :jekyll_plugins do
  gem "jekyll-paginate-v2"
end

```

I deploy on Digital Ocean using a script that automatically builds and moves files into my public www folder. When the script gets to `jekyll build --source $TMP_GIT_CLONE --destination $PUBLIC_WWW` I get an error:

`Dependency Error: Yikes! It looks like you don't have jekyll-paginate-v2 or one of its dependencies installed. In order to use Jekyll as currently configured, you'll need to install this gem. The full error message from Ruby is: 'cannot load such file -- jekyll-paginate-v2'`

When I run `bundle update` remotely I get:

```

are you just doing `jekyll build` or `bundle exec jekyll build`? bundle exec is what installs the dependicies unless you are doing that some other way. At least that is my understanding - I am not using any plugins.

@rdyar I’m only doing `jekyll build`. I will try `bundle exec jekyll build`. Thanks!

Unfortunately I have a new error:  
`remote: Could not locate Gemfile or .bundle/ directory`

Everything was working before I went down the path of installing jekyll-paginate-v2.

Some more information:

When I try to run `bundle install` I get an error:  
`public_suffix-3.0.1 requires ruby version >= 2.1, which is incompatible with the current version, ruby 2.0.0p648`

I wonder if that’s related.

Ok I updated Ruby and ran `bundle install` again. Everything is updated. No progress sadly.

I just tried using jekyll-paginate and got the same result when I deployed:

`Dependency Error: Yikes! It looks like you don't have jekyll-paginate or one of its dependencies installed. In order to use Jekyll as currently configured, you'll need to install this gem.

bundler is supposed to install the dependencies from your gemfile. you could also just try manually installing them - `gem install jekyll-paginate-v2` maybe that would bypass whatever problem bundler is having with installing them or show you a different error.

Hi @diklein  
I had a look at the deployment method you’re using… and to me, it looks like Bundler isn’t reading the repo’s Gemfile as expected.

One can manually set the `BUNDLE_GEMFILE` ENV variable to the repo’s Gemfile. So your _updated_ `hooks/post-receive` will look like…:

```bash
GIT_REPO=$HOME/myrepo.git
TMP_GIT_CLONE=$HOME/tmp/myrepo
GEMFILE=$TMP_GIT_CLONE/Gemfile
PUBLIC_WWW=/var/www/myrepo

git clone $GIT_REPO $TMP_GIT_CLONE
BUNDLE_GEMFILE=$GEMFILE bundle install
BUNDLE_GEMFILE=$GEMFILE bundle exec jekyll build -s $TMP_GIT_CLONE -d $PUBLIC_WWW
rm -Rf $TMP_GIT_CLONE
exit

```

Let me know if that works for you…

Yes unfortunately. I suppose you see “1 gem installed” even if the gem is already installed?

Looks like my version or Ruby is old? But when I run `ruby -v` I get:

`ruby 2.4.0p0 (2016-12-24 revision 57164) [x86_64-darwin16]`

I updated Ruby last night. Do I need to reboot the server for the change to take place?

Thanks!

Ok I restarted nginx and then ubuntu. Both times I see:

```
ruby -v
ruby 2.0.0p648 (2015-12-16 revision 53162) [x86_64-linux]

```

So that’s a problem! How does one actually update Ruby?

I updated rvm and reinstalled Ruby. I see that I supposedly have ruby 2.4.1p111.

Same error when I try to deploy. public\_suffix requires ruby \>= 2.1.

It’s working! It’s working! Thank you so much!

Question: It took approximately 1 minute to deploy because of all this. Is that the new normal for me? I saw a long pause here:
