Thank you.

cPanel --> RubyGems -->Installing Ruby Gem "bundler"

cPanel version v76.0. killed this option.
cPanel version v70.0.62 is still fine in case of RubyGems

RubyGems is now legacy, but I think it would have been better to remove the button before intentionally destroying the function.

Thank you.

Hello @deddy,

This was not intentional. It looks like Centos 7 began shipping RubyGems version 2.0. This version removes the "-y" option from the gem utility and thus results in failed calls from the deprecated Ruby interfaces in cPanel (the legacy interfaces invoke the "-y" option).

Internal case CPANEL-21319 is open to address this issue, however I don't have a specific time frame to offer on a solution at this time. It's possible the solution will be to remove the legacy interfaces from the UI completely. I'll monitor this case and update this thread with more information as it becomes available.

In the meantime, the recommended workaround is to follow the instructions at:
