Issues running the rake command

So I'm trying to use jobsworth and run into an issue with the schema not properly generating. I submitted a report, got a stock reply of "We fixed it for next release" (which they have been saying for over 5 months now) and a nice little workaround using rake. shame the rake command doesn't work.

So I run bundle install:

Gem::Installer::ExtensionBuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

        /usr/bin/ruby1.9.1 extconf.rb
checking for main() in -lc... yes
creating Makefile

make
sh: 1: make: not found


Gem files will remain installed in /var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/RedCloth-4.2.9 for inspection.
Results logged to /var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/RedCloth-4.2.9/ext/redcloth_scan/gem_make.out

An error occurred while installing RedCloth (4.2.9), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install RedCloth -v '4.2.9'` succeeds before bundling.

Fantastic. Then I try installing RedCloth:

ERROR:  Error installing RedCloth:
        ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

        /usr/bin/ruby1.9.1 extconf.rb
checking for main() in -lc... yes
creating Makefile

make
sh: 1: make: not found

I've looked around for many solutions and most are related to errors with Octopress or on Macs, and I'm not using either so they aren't very helpful.

This command solved my problem:

sudo apt-get install build-essential

Same problem when deploying my project via Puppet.

In my case, even though make is present and all related libraries are installed, $PATH is set correctly for root and other users, running bundle install via exec resource in Puppet (see below) resulted in this very same error:

class bundler_run ($target) {
  exec { 'get bundle':
  path        => [ '/bin', '/usr/local/bin', '/var/lib/gems/1.9.1/bin' ],
  cwd         => $target,
  unless      => "bundle check > /dev/null",
  command     => 'bundle install --deployment --clean --without development test',
  logoutput   => true,
  }
}

My fix for that, was setting PATH explicitly in Gemfile

ENV['PATH'] = "/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin"

Additionally, setting encoding to UTF8, solves ArgumentError: invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII error, 

if RUBY_VERSION =~ /1.9/
  Encoding.default_external = Encoding::UTF_8
  Encoding.default_internal = Encoding::UTF_8
end

The error is saying that make is not installed. If it's not installed, install it. If it is installed, add the directory containing the make binary to to $PATH and try again.
