How to I install Puma on Ubuntu 16.04 with rails 2.3.5 and Ruby 1.8.7?

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
