Topic summary
Shopify CLI commands fail locally with “Command failed with exit code 5: bundle install,” blocking theme development. Screenshots of the error were attached. “bundle install” is the Ruby dependency installer used by the CLI.
Tried and mixed results:
- Running CMD/VS Code as Administrator did not help for several users.
- On macOS, updating Homebrew and reinstalling Xcode Command Line Tools resolved the issue for one user.
Key Windows 10 resolution reported:
- A bug in Shopify CLI v3.60.1 caused the failure. Uninstalling the CLI and installing an older version (v3.51.1) fixed it: uninstall @shopify/cli and @shopify/theme globally, then install v3.51.1 of both.
Other potential cause:
- Windows username path containing spaces (e.g., C:\Users\First Last) broke paths; using a username without spaces resolved it for one user.
Status and open questions:
- Multiple workarounds exist (macOS toolchain refresh, Windows CLI downgrade, avoid spaces in user path). No single root cause accepted across platforms.
- A final question asks which Ruby version is in use, suggesting Ruby environment may be relevant. Discussion appears ongoing.
