I checked the system and sure enough the socket.so file was not found.
Is there anyway to built it or should I recompile ruby?
 
Thank you

Verify that socket.so is installed. Generally it's in CONFIG["archdir"]

svg% ruby -rrbconfig -e 'p Dir[Config::CONFIG["archdir"] + "/sock*"]'
["/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux/socket.so"]
svg% 

If you don't find it : this mean that ruby was not able to build it at
compile it : try to see if it give errors, when you compile it
