bcrypt segmentation fault error crashing webrick when new member action requested

Question

I'm trying to create authentication from scratch using bcrypt and I'm getting a webrick crash when I click the sign up link. The (very long) error message starts with:

Started GET "/assets/members.js?body=1" for 127.0.0.1 at 2012-10-02 14:44:21 -0400
Served asset /members.js - 200 OK (0ms)
/Users/username/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194/gems/bcrypt-ruby-3.0.1/lib/bcrypt_ext.bundle: [BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.9.3p194 (2012-04-20 revision 35410) [x86_64-darwin11.3.0]

Is there something wrong with the bcrypt gem? Should I reinstall ruby and/or rails? If so, how would I do that?

Answer 1

After reinstalling my environment, this problem went away.

Answer 2

Something similar for me was fixed by simply wiping out my gems in the current RVM with $ rvm gemset empty then doing a bundle install.
