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?

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

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`

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 trying to use RVM to install ruby 1.9.2 and 1.9.3. It fails because one of the dependencies seems to be gcc46, and rvm uses brew to install it.

Weird that the version is 4.2, since I have Xcode 4.6.3 and command line tools 4.6.3 installed. xcrun seems to be a problem too. Digging through the gcc46 logs leads to a failure to install gmp4:

See this question and my answer.
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 can't get rvm to install Ruby 1.9.3; it keeps on asking for the Homebrew library 'libksba' even though it is already downloaded and installed. When I run the 'brew list' command it shows clearly.
I also have Xcode 4.5 installed.
Is this an environmental variables configuration issue, and I need to configure the path so that they can see each other? If it is, how do I configure it?
How do Homebrew and rvm work together? I'm not clear about this.
Thank you.
rvm install 1.9.3

What you see is output of rvm requirements it is show using less => use up/down arrows to navigate and q to quit less and continue installation.
The requirements are shown only first time you install ruby.
It was a bug and the broken code is already fixed https://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/commit/848ef50f1b32c87e853f21e801f167a39e8c9c66
I just bought a new MacBook Pro (obviously w/ML). First thing I'm doing is installing development tools. I installed Ruby with rvm and I've also got Homebrew installed. I had to download the XCode command line tools.

Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of
necessary libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more
details. You may need configuration options.
After that message, it lists a whole bunch of configuration options, and then says:

You have to install development tools first.
It seems that I have the development tools, so I can't figure out the problem. Any thoughts?
I had to look around a while, but I found the solution at github:
https://github.com/sparklemotion/nokogiri/issues/442#issuecomment-7978408
libxml2 is missing.
I found one extra step was required to solve the above for Homebrew
0.9 on Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion and that is to create a "/usr/bin/gcc-4.2" link:
brew install libxml2 libxslt
brew link libxml2 libxslt
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libiconv/libiconv-1.13.1.tar.gz
tar xvfz libiconv-1.13.1.tar.gz
cd libiconv-1.13.1
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/libiconv/1.13.1
make
sudo make install
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.2
gem install nokogiri -- --with-xml2-include=/usr/local/Cellar/libxml2/2.8.0/include/libxml2 --with-xml2-lib=/usr/local/Cellar/libxml2/2.8.0/lib --with-xslt-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/libxslt/1.1.26 --with-iconv-include=/usr/local/Cellar/libiconv/1.13.1/include --with-iconv-lib=/usr/local/Cellar/libiconv/1.13.1/lib
In this case, you need the development headers for libxml which are not provided as part of the compiler tools. Usually you will need to install one of Homebrew or MacPorts to help install these dependencies.
The hint here is somewhat hard to spot in the noise if you're not familiar, but is:
checking for libxml/parser.h... *** extconf.rb failed ***
The .h files are provided with the development packages and are necessary to compile extensions against those libraries.
