命令行gem安装错误-sqlite3-Rails新命令

Question

I tried creating a new rails application in command line and had the following error. What's the problem?

I have tried working it out myself, but I'm new to coding and even reading through it I'm completely lost!

 /Users/johnsway/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.2/bin/ruby extconf.rb
    checking for sqlite3.h... *** extconf.rb failed ***
    Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary

    need configuration options.

extconf failed, exit code 1

If you need anything else, please feel free to ask!

Thank you for your help!

Perhaps this problem has to do with a recent update of XCode. After a XCode update you need to do the following steps:

1. Open Xcode and accept the license agreement
2. Reinstall the Command Line Tools.

The second step seems to depend on your OS versions. If xcode-select --install does not work try to start the Install Command Line Developer Tools app in /System/Library/CoreServices .

After reinstalling the Command Line Tools try to rerun bundle install .
