@lingarajk Have you overcome this error? It looks like your ruby package manager is not able to install unf_ext gem. The issue is not directly related to ruby-jmeter, so I would suggest closing this issue @90kts as non-related to the repository.

First of All, I would suggest to

1. Re-install that package manually using gem install unf_ext -v '0.0.7.4' If the installation fails, it means that you don't have something like gcc or kernel sources installed. It mostly depends on distributive. You might need ruby-dev package which will help you to compile native extensions from source. (you would want to dig in that way.)

2. I would suggest replacing RVM by RBENV. The seconds one has better chance to install it. I have had experience with older ruby versions such as 1.9.3

If you still have questions, please specify OS version, Distro name, RVM -v,
