It’s nothing to do with webrick - Active Resource is trying to load  
net/https which apparently you don’t have (linux distros often split  
ruby into several bits). You could either install the missing bits of  
ruby or disable Active Resource

Search on the Ubuntu wiki for Rails install help. It’s a process, but  
if you follow it and do it right, you get a much better install, at  
least for beginners.

Synopsis:

Install ruby using atp-get  
Install gems (from urls given in the guide)  
Install everything else from gems
