Rails: `bundle open rails` command not opening rails gem folder

Question

I'm trying to open rails gem folder using bundle open rails command in my local system. For this I have set export EDITOR='subl -w' in .bashrc file.

I'm not sure why it doesn't work for rails gem and when I try to open other gems listed in my Gemfile, it works fine.

Sublime3
Ubuntu 12.04

Any help on what I'm doing wrong?

@MarceloBoeira - Yes gem list shows rails. And it opens empty folder (it is named rails 3.2.22) when I run bundle open rails. — Venkat Ch

so try to uninstall rails and install it again, removing the folder from you rvm or rvenv ... — Marcelo Boeira

@MarceloBoeira - No, I am bit concerned uninstall and install rails in my current system. We use Gemset specific to project. I am not sure if this is due to using Gemset. — Venkat Ch

I believe this behavior you're observing has something to do with how the Rails gem is structured - that is, all the logic has been moved into dedicated modules like ActiveRecord, ActionController, etc. I am seeing the same behavior - bundle open rails opens to an empty directory pointing to the gempath - but bundle open activerecord, for example, works as expected.

I'm using export EDITOR = vi personally, though I don't think it has anything to do with that.
