Cannot use Ruby gems

I am unable to require Ruby gems on my server. My hosting provider also has no idea as to why this happens. Here's a minimal example: $ ruby -r 'sinatra' my_script.rb /usr/share/rubygems/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in `require': cannot load such file -- sinatra (LoadError) from /usr/share/rubygems/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in `require'
I have tried adding the following in my bashrc: export GEM_PATH=$GEM_PATH:/home/k16461ks/ruby/gems/gems/:/opt/cpanel/ea-ruby27/root/usr/share/gems/gems/
With no succes. Is there anything I am missing?

  Hey there! When setting up a Ruby application on a cPanel server using the following guide:
  Yes. - I added `source /opt/cpanel/ea-ruby27/enable` to the bashrc like described in the link you send. - I created the application's directory path - I added two files in the directory: app.rb: require 'rubygems' require 'sinatra' class MailingManager < Sinatra::Base get '/' do 'Hello world' end end
  config.ru: require_relative "app.rb" run MailingManager
  - I then went to the Applicaton Manager, selected the correct path and deployed the app. - I saw the following in the error log: [ E 2022-12-29 18:29:42.9915 21334/T23 age/Cor/App/Implementation.cpp:221 ]: Could not spawn process for application /home/k16461ks/mailinglijsten/project_src: The application encountered the following error: cannot load such file -- sinatra (LoadError) [ E 2022-12-29 18:29:42.9915 21334/T23 age/Cor/App/Implementation.cpp:221 ]: Could not spawn process for application /home/k16461ks/mailinglijsten/project_src: The application encountered the following error: cannot load such file -- rack (LoadError)
  - I then went to the terminal and tried ruby -r 'sinatra' my_script.rb
  as described above. The gems are installed according to the Ruby Gems screen in CPanel: -

  Well that sounds like it should just work at that point. Could you create a ticket with our team so we can check this out directly on that system?
