First hit: http://www.google.com/search?q=no%20such%20file%20to%20load%20--%20zlib

As the error says, you don't have zlib module for ruby. I guess that
you didn't have the development files for zlib installed when you
compiled ruby and the module was therefore simply not compiled and
installed. Same goes with other extensionssuch as readline, openssl,
etc.
