I am trying to download ruby 1.9.3 (for learning purposes, this is the version in the book)
When I run $rvm install 1.9.3 I get a configuration error:
Error running './configure --prefix=/Users/john/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p545 --with-opt-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/libyaml/0.1.6:/usr/local/Cellar/readline/6.3.3:/usr/local/Cellar/libksba/1.3.0:/usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.1g --without-tcl --without-tk --disable-install-doc --enable-shared',
showing last 15 lines of /Users/john/.rvm/log/1398181983_ruby-1.9.3-p545/configure.log
Then the last 15 lines are:

Does anyone know what is wrong here? Since I'm new, I'm assuming it is something simple...
Thanks in advance!
Issue is with the c compliers. You should be doing
sudo apt-get install clang && rvm install 1.9.3 --with-gcc=clang

I need to install ruby 2.7.5 for my react native app but I can't install 2.7.5 through rvm. I tried many things to install any ruby version, I ended up to get this configure error.
Error running './configure --prefix=/Users/myname/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.1 --disable-install-doc --enable-shared',

I tried...
remove rvm and reinstall
rvm install 2.7.5
rvm install ruby-2.7.5
use rbenv
install openssl
brew install openssl
rvm install 2.6.7 --with-openssl-dir=/usr/local/opt/openssl
remove rvm by using rvm implode
all those throw same error message. After trying 4., all ruby versions are removed but still can't install any ruby version.
Please help!!!
Edit
I tried
CFLAGS="-Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration" rvm install 2.7.5
and got this error

Add Command Line Tools:
Ensure the command line tools are correctly installed. We might need to reinstall Xcode after OS upgrades.
Here are the exact steps to follow assuming we have openssl installed
export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/homebrew/opt/openssl#1.1/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/homebrew/opt/openssl#1.1/include"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/openssl#1.1/lib/pkgconfig"

export optflags="-Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration"

CONFIGURE_OPTS="--with-openssl-dir=$(brew --prefix openssl#1.1)"
RUBY_CONFIGURE_OPTS="--with-openssl-dir=$(brew --prefix openssl#1.1)"
rvm install 2.7.5
Do you have xcode developer tools installed? Run this "xcode-select --install"
xcode-select --install
Once you have developer tools installed you may need to refer to this comment:-

gcc already installed -
gcc (GCC) 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-11)
I guess you do not have the required packages (dependencies) to install ruby via rvm.
Following steps should help you out:
yum install gcc-c++ patch readline readline-devel zlib zlib-devel
yum install libyaml-devel libffi-devel openssl-devel make
yum install bzip2 autoconf automake libtool bison iconv-devel
curl -L get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
source /etc/profile.d/rvm.sh
rvm install 2.1.2
rvm use 2.1.2 --default
Now check your ruby version:
ruby --version
Check out http://tecadmin.net/install-ruby-2-1-on-centos-rhel/ for more details
There must be some problem with your host compiler GCC.
Another issue may be binutils.
At any rate, you should first try to see if you can compile other C-based programs.
I also recommend you wget ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/2.2/ruby-2.2.2.tar.xz extract it and have a look what happens if you compile it (you can compile into an /opt prefix for now; you can use rvm lateron anyway; ./configure --prefix=/opt/ruby/2.2.2; make; make install)
This may possibly fail, have a look at config.log then. Often, but not always, config.log will have the specific error.
I assume that your compile toolchain is not complete.
I'm getting errors installing RVM, I have installed Ruby 2.0.0 with brew, and now I'm trying to run the RVM command at http://www.rvm.io

I have Xcode installed too.
Do you have Xcode installed? You then have to go into its preference window to install the command line tools. Take a look at this question.
I'm trying to install Ruby 1.9.3-p385 on my work machine using Mountain Lion.
I've installed RVM and run
rvm install 1.9.3
But I get this error...

It's all a bit cryptic to me. If anyone can help it would be appreciated.
This is problem with railsinstaller default settings, check this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/12929017/497756

To sum up, install MacPorts and run:
sudo port selfupdate
sudo port install gcc-apple42
CC=/opt/local/bin/gcc-apple-4.2 rvm install ruby-1.9.3-p194 --enable-shared --without-tk --without-tcl
I recently uninstalled Xcode 4.2 and re-installed Xcode 4.3.1. Installed Command Line Tools also. The error says 'C compiler doesn't work`. On searching for this error, it said that it happens when Xcode is not installed. What am I missing?

Also, in Xcode, make sure the Command Line Tools are installed. Choose Xcode > Preferences, click on Downloads, and if necessary, click the Install button next to "Command Line Tools".
you use old RVM which does not know about latest ruby pathclevel, update with rvm get head
Ruby is not yet fully ready for LLVM, your get best chances for compilation using osx-gcc-installer and --with-gcc=gcc-4.2
I fixed it by running :
rvm install <ruby-version> --with-gcc=clang
Replace < ruby-version> with version you want to use
For those out there running into the same problem,
System (in order of installation)
OSX 10.7.3
RVM
XCode 4.3
Developer Tools (through XCode Preferences > Downloads)

I had set LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS to point to Homebrew installations, this resulted in errors. I "unlinked" LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS, ran 'rvm install 1.9.2' and everything worked fine.
rvm install 1.9.2
Try ./configure --without-gcc to use clang.
I'm on Mavericks and the provided answers didn't work for me. However, updating my version of Xcode and making sure Command Line Tools are installed did the trick.
It is a lot easier to install by using the compiler the system knows about
1. rvm install ruby-1.9.3-p547 --with-gcc=`echo which gcc`
