Error installing libv8: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension

Question

I made a rails project with,

rails new test_bootstrap.

succeeded.

moved to the project dir and added the gems

gem \         


        

Answer 1

I tried the solution listed above command which looks very fine for installing individual gem, but for bundler users - you should use bundle config

Use

bundle config build.libv8 --with-system-v8 

and

bundle config build.therubyracer --with-system-v8

to configure bundler to take the parameters to be used while installing specific gem
