Issue with linux command

[freaksavior]

I'm running linux ubuntu 11.04

I have curl, LAMP, yum, and added nano along with several other things installed (webmin and phpmyadmin).

I am trying to run

bash < <(curl -s [url]https://raw.github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/master/binscripts/rvm-installer[/url])

When I do I get the following error

root@freaksavior:~# bash < <(curl -s [url]https://raw.github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/master/binscripts/rvm-installer[/url])
-bash: curl: command not found

Any idea why this is happening?

Also I was told that PHP was not installed properly. How do I check this? PHP shows to be installed

root@freaksavior:~# php -v
PHP 5.3.5-1ubuntu7.4 with Suhosin-Patch (cli) (built: Dec 13 2011 18:30:11)

it seems you have not installed the curl package yet. try apt-cache search curl to see which package you need.

sudo apt-get install curl

should install the required package for you.

 

[freaksavior]

^ Did that but it seemed to be an issue where it ran out of ram.

Now i'm at

root@freaksavior:~# rvm use 1.9.3 --default
-bash: rvm: command not found
root@freaksavior:~#

The person who owns the server said

"It works for me. It's downloading whatever it is. "

 

[Easy Rhino]

ran out of ram installing curl? something must be broken lol!

try sudo apt-get install rvm and see if it finds what you need.

also i see you are a root user. i am assuming "the person who owns the server" also has root access?

 

[freaksavior]

Yes and yes.

I managed to get it working, he ran it for me which was weird that he managed to do it in root and I wasn't.

He is actually my co-worker.

Now I got siri proxy installed but it wont' connect on my phone lol

Anyway, thanks for the help Easy Rhino

 

[Easy Rhino]

what's siri proxy?

 

[freaksavior]

It's a siri port for iphone 4.
