what os?

it looks like you have ruby installed in 2 places - Users/ and System/.

It looks to be trying to use both at the same time and is confused. You might try uninstalling ruby, then checking to see if it is still installed, then re-install it. There is probably a way to manage ruby and tell it to use one or the other but that isn’t something I have any experience with.

More specifically, Jekyll is installed in User gems while RubyGems is being access in System

I haven’t seen System path accessed before.

If you have a Brew installed Ruby, make sure it appears in your path and it should end up before the system Ruby.

You can also update your installed gems, with or without sudo, to get newer versions that can help with installs

You can also update your installed gems, with or without sudo, to get newer versions that can help with installs

# Upgrade just RubyGems gems.
gem update --system
# Upgrade all global gems.
gem update

Thanks, I used rbenv to sort it out, and it seemed like working. But when I try the serve command, I see this:

there is an issue with ruby 3 - see this post:

Load error: cannot load such file -- webrick

Hello everybody. After updating to Jekyll 4.2.0, I get the following error, and it seems to have no precedents, here on the forum. Could you be so Kind to help me? (this happens regardless of the website I’m trying to build). Please pardon me if the error is an obvious one but I know nothing about Ruby and Gems… Everything is up to date (through bundler). Here’s the log of my build error after entering bundle exec jekyll serve --trace --watch: bundler: failed to load command: jekyll (/usr/loc…

looks like webrick may be missing, try bundle add webrick which is what the solution to that post looks to be.
