Hey Guys, Every time I use a project that requires the son gem, I get the following error. I've ran bundle install, bundle update, gem install son, gem install son -v '1.8.0' and NOTHING works! It's driving me cray!
An error occurred while installing json (1.8.0), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that gem install json -v '1.8.0'
succeeds before bundling.
I hope someone has a solution!

1,066 PointsWhat version of Ruby did you install? If you installed the latest update then you need to downgrade. It worked for me by using 2.0.0p643.
