Error in installing json gem for ruby in windows

问题

While I am trying to create the new rails project, I face to error that is related to the lack of json gem.

When I try to install json gem, this error happens:

Temporarily enhancing PATH to include DevKit...
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing json:
        ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

If you want to install Ruby 2 (or greater) on Windows 7 (64 bit), you need to install DevKit 64 bit as well. Your Devkit has to be compatible with your operating system.

So, make sure you installed the correct Ruby and the compatible Devkit on your system.

See this tutorial for more information.

There was a group of gems which are dependent together. So, I had to install step by step.

As I did it based on error messages and one by one, I forgot to make a note about the steps.
