What can i do to resolve

Could be you "Remote source", try doing:

gem sources -r http://gems.rubyonrails.org

then add:

gem sources -a http://rubygems.org/

Also... you can post which gems do you request in your environment.rb file (RoR 2.X) or Gemfile (RoR 3.X)

---

just edit the rails version in the config/environment.rb file to 2.3.8
