Answer 1

Remove the spaces in your folder path.

for eg: my path was : /users/sridhar/source code

I changed it to: /users/sridhar/source_code

Answer 2

There should be no space between your username on system. I use Win11, I'm not sure how this works, but renaming the username works.

Will share the reference answer & my logs soon

Mine was "DB Studios" & I renamed to "DB_Studios"

Answer 3

bundle config --local build.ffi --with-cflags=-Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration

bundle install

this worked for me
