necessary libraries and/or headers.  Check the mkmf.log file for more
details.  You may need configuration options.

An error occurred while installing therubyracer (0.10.1), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install therubyracer -v '0.10.1'` succeeds before bundling.

how can i resolve this..?
Note: OS - Ubuntu 12.10

Answer 1

You can try like the following:

$ gem uninstall libv8
$ gem install therubyracer

It makes working mine when i got the error.

PS you need to mention your OS

Answer 2

Similar to @Sri, but a bit different, so paste it in not to forget it: os - xubuntu 12.10

1. gem install therubyracer
2. gem uninstall libv8
3. gem uninstall therubyracer
4. gem install therubyracer -v '0.9.9' version of this gem was crucial...

Answer 3

sudo apt-get install g++ did the job ...

hope it'll helps someone

Answer 4

another solution without reinstallation. (in case other Rails applications use a different version) :

1.list the installed gem versions:

$ gem list -l therubyracer    

*** LOCAL GEMS ***
therubyracer (0.12.0)

2.modify your Gemfile to use one of the installed gems:

# Gemfile
gem 'therubyracer', '0.12.0', platforms: :ruby

done. now try 'bundle install' will give you a success notice.
