An error occurred while installing eventmachine (1.0.3) [duplicate]

I have Rails 4.2.5 and ruby 2.0.0 installed.

This is a Gemfile of a project :

gem "whenever"

gem "therubyracer"
gem "less-rails"
gem 'twitter-bootstrap-rails', :git => 'git://github.com/seyhunak/twitter-bootstrap-rails.git'

gem 'geokit'

gem 'sequenced'

gem 'rack-cors', :require => 'rack/cors'

# Paperclip

When I make bundle install I receive the following error : "An error occurred while installing eventmachine (1.0.3), and Bundler cannot continue. Make sure that gem install eventmachine -v '1.0.3' succeeds before bundling."

And if I make gem install eventmachine I have the following error

make "DESTDIR=" compiling binder.cpp
In file included from binder.cpp:20:
./project.h:116:10: fatal error: 'openssl/ssl.h' file not found
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
         ^
1 error generated.
make: *** [binder.o] Error 1
Gem files will remain installed in        /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/eventmachine-1.0.8 for inspection.
Results logged to /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/eventmachine-1.0.8/ext/gem_make.out

How Can I fix it?

Answer 1

I had this problem before and running the command below worked

gem install eventmachine -v '1.0.3'  -- --with-cppflags=-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include

I can't remember where I found it or the reason why this work. Maybe someone else can complement the answer.
