JRuby versions prior to 1.6 did not support Ruby C extensions, and even in 1.6 the support is still "in development" and considered experimental. This page lists common C extensions and non-C alternatives you can use to replace them.
-
RDiscount - Use Maruku (pure Ruby) or markdown_j (wrapper around a Java library)
-
RMagick - Try RMagick4J (implements ImageMagick functionality in Java) or preferably use alternatives mini_magick & quick_magick. For simple resizing, cropping, greyscaling, etc look at image_voodoo.
-
Unicorn - Try any one of the following JRuby-based servers: Trinidad, Mizuno, Kirk or TorqueBox.
