I'm trying to deploy Fedena 2.3 (projectfedena.org) on Ubuntu 16.04, and its built with Ruby 1.8.7 on Rails 2.3.5. I've been able to install it and run with script/server, but now I'm trying to deploy it using Puma+Nginx and as soon as I run gem install puma 3.6.2 (any version above it requires Ruby > 1.8.7), it gives me this error. Does anyone know how i can fix it?

user@server:~/development$ gem install puma -v 3.6.2

The last puma version to officially support Ruby 1.8.7 is 2.16.0

https://github.com/puma/puma/blob/master/History.md#2160--2016-01-27

https://github.com/puma/puma/blob/master/History.md#300--2016-02-25 states

Ruby pre-2.0 is no longer supported

Running 

gem install puma -v 3.4.0

works for my ruby 1.8.7. Try installing this puma version instead
