testcase is super simple: zypper -n in --recommends -C "rubygem(rails)" rails new mycoolapp --skip-bundle --skip-test cd mycoolapp (rails server -b 0.0.0.0 &) for i in {1..100} ; do sleep 0.1; curl -s http://localhost:3000 | grep "<title>Ruby on Rails" && break ; done pkill -f "rails server" || pumactl -P tmp/pids/server.pid stop the rails server start up fails with: (rails server -b 0.0.0.0 &) Could not find gem 'puma (~> 3.11)' in any of the gem sources listed in your Gemfile. Run `bundle install` to install missing gems. I have however installed ruby2.5-rubygem-puma-4.3.12-150000.3.9.1.x86_64
