An error occurred while installing json (1.8.3), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that gem install json -v '1.8.3'
succeeds before bundling.
This is my cmd screen and when I launch the testapp, it then sent me this. i don't know what to do next thanks for the help.

3,334 PointsI had the same issue and found a solution on stackoverflow. You should install json_pure instead of json using the command:
gem install json_pure
There appears to be some sort of conflict with json and Windows that doesn't exist in json_pure. They are supposed to be the same, except json is written in C while json_pure is written in Ruby. Using json is generally recommend, as code written in C is faster, but everything seems to work fine so far using json_pure.
