You do not have Gemfile in a directory where you run that command  Gemfile is a file containing your gem settings for a current program

Make sure you are in the project directory before running bundle install   For example  after running rails new myproject  you will want to cd myproject before running bundle install

I solved similar problem just by backing out of the project directory  then cd back into the project directory and bundle install

Here is something you could try   Add this to any config files you use to run your app   ENV  BUNDLE GEMFILE       File expand path        Gemfile     FILE    require  bundler setup    Set up gems listed in the Gemfile  Bundler require  default    Rails and other Rack based apps use this scheme  It happens sometimes that you are trying to run things which are some directories deeper than your root where your Gemfile normally is located  Of course you solved this problem for now but occasionally we all get into trouble with this finding the Gemfile  I sometimes like when you can have all you gems in the  bundle directory also  It never hurts to keep this site address under your pillow  http   bundler io
