Have you tried doing this with sudo? E.g. sudo rvm install 1.9.3
I see a few permission denied errors in your logs. The error messages you are getting from the scripts seem to think that there are missing files, but I suspect it's just that the files require root permissions to read or write or execute.
You could also try fixing your permissions, but sudo is probably easier.
/home/User/.rvm/log/ruby-1.9.3-p194/yaml/configure.log is following:
/bin/sh: /home/User/.rvm/src/yaml-0.1.4/config/missing: Permission denied
configure: WARNING: missing' script is too old or missing
...
cp: cannot openconfig/depcomp' for reading: Permission denied
./configure: line 3656: ./depcomp: No such file or directory none
...
configure: error: cannot run /bin/sh config/config.sub
looks like windows make does not support -j switch like *nix make does, you can separate installation in to two steps to make it working:
curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
rvm install 1.9.3
as you already installed rvm you can run just the second command to install ruby.
EDIT01: new error, missing file: /home/User/.rvm/src/yaml-0.1.4/config/depcomp
check if it exists and is readable
other error: /bin/sh: /home/User/.rvm/src/yaml-0.1.4/config/missing: Permission denied
EDIT02: new error, this time it looks like some bug in either how yaml is compiled on windows or just the compilation tools used, ensure you have installed autoconf, automake, gcc, libtool, make - and try again.
Problem is solved by reinstalling the cygwin with following packages
Vim git git-completion gitk curl ruby sqlite3 libsqlite3_0 libsqlite3-devel gcc colorgcc make libtool libncurses-devel ncurses openssl openssl-devel openssh zlib zlib-devel patch wget unzip
Now each and every thing working fine. Thanks every body for providing your support.
