Solution

  • This happens when you fail to install GCC or xcode-select.

    1. Be sure you have xcode-select installed
    xcode-select --install
    1. Be sure your version of puma installs
    gem install puma -v 'x.y.z'
    1. If neither of these work try
    bundle config build.puma --with-cflags="-Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration"

    and then re-run bundle install
