Bundler 2.0.1 installed, Rails says "must use Bundler 2 or greater"?

I'm a Rails newb who's trying out Rails on a DigitalOcean droplet. The installations seemed to work fine, but I'm getting a curious error message when I try to generate a scaffold:

DO 10:48 Rails/simple (master) → rails generate scaffold User name:string email:string

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

bundler (2.0.1, default: 1.17.2)
bundler-unload (1.0.2)
rubygems-bundler (1.4.5)

I.e., the current Bundler gem is version 2.0.1, but Rails still thinks it's insufficient.

I can't find anything similar on the web. The only red flag I can see is that the bundler gem shows a default version of 1.17.2. How do I begin to diagnose the problem?

This helped me: gem update --system

I ran into the same issue & resolved it by downgrading with gem uninstall bundler, followed by gem install bundler -v 1.17.3 to revert back to the last pre 2 version.

I saw this across 3 separate systems using different version managers (ASDF, rbenv, rvm) and this resolved the issue.

There is some information on getting both versions to play nicely here. The root cause of this issue may have been a bug (which appears to have since been fixed)

Per the comment from @MatijsvanZuijlen below, and the bundler documentation, you should also be able to specify which version of bundler you want to use at runtime with bundle _1.17.3_ install

This is my solution:

  1. (if you have an old version of Bundler), run the command:

    bundle update --bundler

  2. Run the command:

    gem update --system

  3. run the rake

    rake db:migrate

After you try any of the solutions above, restart your terminal window.

I was stuck with my terminal showing 2 versions of bundler even when i uninstalled the old version until i killed terminal and opened a new window.

I got issue after updating ruby version(2.4.6) as-

You must use Bundler 2 or greater with this lockfile.

Here is how I resolved it-
When i checked bundler version bundler -v

$ Bundler version 1.16.1  

I updated bundlere version using-

$ gem install bundler -v 2.0.1

And got issue resolved!

Here is how I resolve it:

delete ruby and install Ruby 2.6.7 via source code, and soft link to /usr/bin/

wget https://cache.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/2.6/ruby-2.6.7.tar.gz
tar xvf ruby-2.6.7.tar.gz
./configure 
make -j32 && sudo make install
sudo ln -sf /usr/local/bin/ruby /usr/bin/ruby

then, run:

bundle install

then, run:

sudo bundle exec jekyll serve

It works for me.
