Hi I am trying to install ruby on rails. I am able to install ruby-1.9.3-p194 (with some warnings) but I'm not able to install rubygems-1.8.24. I do not have Admin rights nor do I have access to root or sudo. When I try to "run ruby setup.rb" I get error as "Segmentation fault".

Also, when I try to run " gem install rails --include-dependencies" I get the same error "Segmentation fault".

Could someone please suggest how to set rubygems and rails at local with no access required for Admin or root or sudo.

   I'd suggest using rbenv or rvm:
