Can't Build Site Locally: bundle install failed with "An error occurred while installing nokogiri (1.8.4)" #1150
Description
I try to build and view the site locally. When I run bundle install, I got
Errno::EACCES: Permission denied @ rb_sysopen -
/Users/USERNAME/DIR/DIR/DIR/docs.scala-lang/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.4.0/gems/nokogiri-1.8.4/.autotest
An error occurred while installing nokogiri (1.8.4), and Bundler cannot
continue.
Make sure that `gem install nokogiri -v '1.8.4' --source 'https://rubygems.org/'` succeeds
before bundling.
When I installed nokogiri manually and successfully by running gem install nokogiri -v '1.8.4' --source 'https://rubygems.org/', and then run bundle install, same error appears.
I am using macOS Sierra version 10.12.3

I know I've hit this more than once before, googled it before, resolved it somehow, and then forgotten what I did. see e.g. sparklemotion/nokogiri#1504
If anyone knows the solution, we should add it to the doc here. (And yes, I should have done it myself before... ah, well, I guess I didn't know yet whether it would turn into something of an FAQ.)
Or maybe whatever nokogiri problem this is isn't the same one I hit, I just know that I remember nokogiri being trouble.

i had some problem with ruby ecosystem too, and just use docker, as i mention at docker support pull request.

I think I remember now that
xcode-select --installused to fix this. @xingyif you might try thatBut also, I hit this today and
xcode-select --installdidn't fix it. I think what I am experiencing is a new problem on MacOS 10.14 (Yifan's report was on 10.12). The problem is: described here: https://silvae86.github.io/sysadmin/mac/osx/mojave/beta/libxml2/2018/07/05/fixing-missing-headers-for-homebrew-in-mac-osx-mojave/And the upshot is, this fixes it:

closing on the assumption that any trouble is fixable via some combination of:
