Unable to run rails server: `require': cannot load such file -- net/ssh (LoadError)

Question

I am trying to learn ruby on rails using the michael hartl guide. In the past, I was able to get through the setup of a new rails webapp. Now, when I try to run the server, I am getting this error:

/home/ss/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.2/gems/fog-1.26.0/lib/fog/joyent/compute.rb:3:in `require': cannot load such file -- net/ssh (LoadError)

Hi Shenil, I don't know a lot about ruby, but your question is not really formatted well, see stackoverflow.com/editing-help. This might increase the chance you get help from someone who knows ruby — Jaap

Alternatively, add this to your Gemfile:

gem 'fog', '~> 1.36.0'

and run bundle install. This worked for me, because I was hitting a bug introduced in 1.35.0: https://github.com/fog/fog/issues/3765

Add this to your Gemfile:

gem 'net-ssh'

and run bundle install after that.
