I'm currently trying to embark on my first rails project and when I try to run the command rails new file_name I eventually get the error ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
I am currently using rvm to run ruby 2.2 on my mac osx 10.8.5. Everytime I run rails it seems to fail at the json gem.
Gem::Ext::BuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
I am lost as to what is going on. If I try to run install json I also get a failed to build native extension error. Could it be my versions of xcode command line tools because when I try to run xcode-select --install it says command doesn't exist? I don't know. Any help would be appreciated.
edit as per Leonardo's request:

some one in my team just updated some gem in the gemfile because of which gem json is resolved to version '1.8.6'. Which is not being installed. The error it throws is following:

My ruby is 2.3.1p112 and gcc version is 4.7.4. I have tried to find out which gcc version json -v 1.8.6 use but I did not find anything.
Thanks in advance
As pr my undarstanding the solution is to install libgmp3-dev.
sudo apt-get install libgmp3-dev

Looks like you're missing gcc-4.2
Do you have any GCC installed (if you're on a Mac, you need to install Xcode)?
which gcc
If you already have a version of gcc, you can simply symlink to it
ln -s /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.2
