Hello,
I’m attempting to deploy my rails app from a bitbucket repo using the following tutorial: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/deploying-a-rails-app-on-ubuntu-14-04-with-capistrano-nginx-and-puma
I have done everything in the tutorial, but when I get to deployment using “cap production deploy:initial”, I receive an error message. The deploy:install first pulls down the repo and sets up the capistrano stuff, but when it gets to bundling my gems, I get the following error:
DEBUG [1a250078] [31mAn error occurred while installing json (1.8.2), and Bundler cannot continue.
DEBUG [1a250078]
DEBUG [1a250078] Make sure that gem install json -v '1.8.2' succeeds before bundling.[0m
DEBUG [1a250078]
I have tried everything from “making sure that gem install json -v 1.8.2” works on the server (which it does) to wiping the server and starting again.
Also, if I want to retry the deploy using capistrano I get an error because the symbolic link for nginx is not setup, which means I then need to remove the “apps” directory in /home/deploy/ on my server. Once I have done that, attempting to deploy will once again render the json -v ‘1.8.2’ error.
I really do not know what to do. My gemfile works perfectly locally.

If you run rbenv global 2.4.0, gem JSON have issues with 2.4.0. Try to downgrade to 2.3.1:
rbenv global 2.3.1
ruby -v```
**& remember to update your** ```capfile``` to: ```set :rbenv_ruby, '2.3.1'```
Trying installing libgmp3-dev in order to resolve this issue on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
On your droplet:
$ sudo apt-get install libgmp3-dev
Once that’s installed, install the latest version of the json gem:
$ gem install json
