okay. I am trying bootstarp for the first time and I added gems "therubyracer" and "less-rails" to my gemfile along with 'twitter-bootstrap-rails'. After

bundle install

I get following error.

Bundler::GemspecError: Could not read gem at /home/addie/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.1/cache/libv8-3.16.14.3-x86_64-linux.gem. It may be corrupted.
An error occurred while installing libv8 (3.16.14.3), and Bundler cannot
continue.
Make sure that `gem install libv8 -v '3.16.14.3'` succeeds before bundling.

as it says, I tried:

gem install libv8 -v '3.16.14.3'

and it does succeeds.

Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
Successfully installed libv8-3.16.14.3
Parsing documentation for libv8-3.16.14.3
Done installing documentation for libv8 after 0 seconds
1 gem installed

but when I try bundle install again, I get the same error as before: 

Bundler::GemspecError: Could not read gem at /home/addie/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.1/cache/libv8-3.16.14.3-x86_64-linux.gem. It may be corrupted.
An error occurred while installing libv8 (3.16.14.3), and Bundler cannot
continue.
Make sure that `gem install libv8 -v '3.16.14.3'` succeeds before bundling.

Its so annoying! Can someone please help me?

EDIT:

As most of the solution to libv8 questions suggest, I tried

gem install libv8 -v '3.11.8.17' -- --with-system-v8

it succeeds too but makes no difference to bundle install error.

Try following steps:

  1. Remove current libv8 version

    gem uninstall libv8

  2. Re-install libv8

    gem install libv8

  3. Check new version number

    gem list | grep libv

  4. Update Gemfile to the installed version of libv8 obtained from (3) above

    gem 'libv8', '3.11.8.3' #for example

  5. Try bundling again

    bundle install

  • Sorry! Too impatient to sit around for solution. I uninstalled rails and installed it again and it worked. I think there was something wrong with path bundler was using or something. thanks anyway! – sonalkr132 Sep 06 '14 at 08:22
