    I suppose you lack executable on your system/

    Haven’t you try to run gem install execjs or bundle install(from your project directory) in console?

    UPDATE

    Also visit execjs homepage and try instaling any of JS runtimes supported.

    UPDATE 2

    I was able to reproduce your error (with ruby 1.9.2). Just add gem 'therubyracer' to your Gemfile and run bundle install. For some weird reason ROR is not working out of the box on Ubuntu. See this and search for runtime word for more info.

    PS

    Please put your Gemfile here. This might help.
