ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension on rubygem installation

Question

While trying to do "bundle install", I receive error message below

environment = OSX 10.9.4, rbenv 0.4.0, ruby 2.1.2, Homebrew 0.9.5

Gem::Ext::BuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

An error occurred while installing debugger (1.6.6), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install debugger -v '1.6.6'` succeeds before bundling.

Could anyone please provide me solution, I have been misfortunate to find out any...

This is likely a problem with the Xcode Command Line Tools. There are a number of steps needed to get this right.

This question Installing Ruby Debug IDE Gem provides one example.

I tried above and also "gem install debugger -v '1.6.6'" but yet to succeed the installation.... – Hiro Gotanda Jul 28 '14 at 00:52
I had this problem and tried a lot of different approaches. I'll see if I can find my notes on this, it was very frustrating. – Peter Wooster Jul 28 '14 at 16:27
any leads on the question? – The Whiz of Oz Sep 18 '14 at 10:41
This didn't fix it for me either. – brent.payne Nov 17 '14 at 22:03

I ran into the same issue and solved it by agreeing to xcode's license (it seems to happen after an update and you haven't yet agreed to the update)

Just run xcodebuild -license from the command line

Found the answer thanks to this question

Neither of the above comments helped me. Changing to ruby 2.1.1 of below allowed me to bundle without issue.

rbenv local 2.1.1
bundle install

using ruby 2.1.2, it breaks in the same place

I am using OSX 10.10, but the same versions of rbenv and homebrew – brent.payne Nov 17 '14 at 22:05
