Unable to get ImageMagick version *** extconf.rb failed *** - ruby-on-rails

i've googled this error a couple of times and got instructions to install rMagick win-32 from their website. However the win32 versions looks depecrated and is made for Ruby 1.8.6 as for i have 1.9.3.
Can someone please help me install this gem? I really can't be arsed to do the imageMagick installing on my PC for this since the code will be moved to other PC's etc. a couple of times in the next few weeks (school assignment, you know how i goes). And with that it appears that imageMagick CAN be installed along with this gem(Which is by far the best option in my case). Nonetheless, i can't figure out this error since i'm a pretty big n00b when it comes to these things.

Here I faced the same problem. After search, I found solution from here

You need to install dev packages:
sudo apt-get install libmagick++-dev
Hope this helps :)

I was able to reproduce this on my mac:
I fixed this error by re-installing and re-linking icu4c
brew install icu4c
brew link icu4c --force # if it shows you an error and tells you to add the path manually add them
restarted my terminal then re-installed the gem (i also tried this)
you will know it's working when you have which icu-config working https://github.com/dmgk/uchardet/blob/506105c5322fe3cde7ce3e2b2868f875b9b57230/ext/extconf.rb#L3-L6
however now i have another error uchardet.c:2:10: fatal error: 'unicode/ucsdet.h' file not found i do think the gems needs better configuration around this

Ruby on rails : Bundle update giving errors in Windows

I am trying to run my rails server. When I first ran, I got an error like this
No timezone data source could be found. To resolve this, either install TZInfo:
I resolve the error by updating the x64 version of tzinfo-data in the gem file. After that when I ran bundle update, I am getting the following error

What could have possibly gone wrong? How to resolve this in Windows machines?
I know this might not be a good answer for you, but running Ruby on Rails on windows is a pain, and going to be terrible experience, try to set a dual boot with Ubuntu, Debian or any other linux distribution along side with windows and then you can develop with RoR as it should.

Can't install atomic ruby atomic gem in rails 4.0

I've been doing quite a bit of research on this issue the last week or so but haven't found a solution that works for me, it's very frustrating. Hopefully somebody can point me in the right direction. Here's the error I recieve

This should work:
gem install atomic -V
And then:
gem install rails -V
The -V is for Verbose. You'll see what happen.
It worked for me on a Linux box, when gem update didn't.
You also need to have the latest rubygem / bundler.
This happened to me because I didn't have the right version of XCode Developer Tools for OS X Mavericks. Then when I tried to update it, it said it wasn't available from the Software Update server. Details here.

Have you tried installing the unix odbc development files?
sudo apt-get install unixodbc-dev
If you're on OS X and having this issue try
brew install unixodbc
Then you should be able to
gem install ruby-odbc

Installing libv8 for ree on Mountain Lion fails

I've been trying to find a solution to this for a few days now and no luck. If anyone has been successful installing the libv8 gem for REE 1.8.7 on ML, could you please let me know the process you followed?
I have both the XCode LLVM compiler as well as the kennethreitz GCC package for 10.7+ v2 installed.
The output when trying to install with native extensions is:

This worked for me.
RUBYOPT=-rrubygems gem install therubyracer
I was able to successfully install the libv8 gem on Mountain Lion on a freshly installed ree-1.8.7. I believe the issue you're seeing stems from the GCC version being used.
As is now described in the osx-gcc-installer's README you should switch from Kenneth Reitz's LLVM-version of GCC to the GCC 4.2 that is available via Homebrew or Macports.
Homebrew instructions:
http://coderwall.com/p/dtbuqg
MacPorts instructions:
http://coderwall.com/p/pagj2w
Note that you will want to set the CC path and establish the necessary symlink as described in those articles.
