External check error when calling wrapper/Ruby: `require': cannot load such file

[prblmchld]

Hi all. I am trying to run an external check that runs a Ruby script.

Basically I am trying to call the following wrapper:

#~/usr/bin/env bash
/usr/lib/zabbix/externalscripts/rubytest.rb

For some reason when Zabbix calls either the wrapper OR the ruby script directly, it is unable to require any ruby libraries.

/var/log/zabbix/zabbix_server.log
 item "Test_Miner:rubytest.rb" became not supported: Received value [/usr/share/rubygems/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in `require': cannot load such file -- /home/ec2-user/.gem/ruby/gems/cgminer-api-0.1.0/lib/cgminer/api (LoadError)        from /usr/share/rubygems/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in `require'
