I am using the following gems:
gem 'therubyracer', platforms: :ruby
#gem "therubyracer"
gem "less-rails" #Sprockets (what Rails 3.1 uses for its asset pipeline) supports LESS
gem "twitter-bootstrap-rails"
and in asset pipeline this is the code
*
*= require_bootstrap_and_overrides
*= require_self
*= require_tree .
*/
and in bootstrap_and overrides file this is the code
@import "twitter/bootstrap/bootstrap";
// Set the correct sprite paths
@iconSpritePath: image-url("twitter/bootstrap/glyphicons-halflings.png");
@iconWhiteSpritePath: image-url("twitter/bootstrap/glyphicons-halflings-white.png");
// Set the Font Awesome (Font Awesome is default. You can disable by commenting below lines)
@fontAwesomeEotPath: font-url("fontawesome-webfont.eot");
@fontAwesomeEotPath_iefix: font-url("fontawesome-webfont.eot?#iefix");
@fontAwesomeWoffPath: font-url("fontawesome-webfont.woff");
@fontAwesomeTtfPath: font-url("fontawesome-webfont.ttf");
@fontAwesomeSvgPath: font-url("fontawesome-webfont.svg#fontawesomeregular");
// Font Awesome
//@import "fontawesome/font-awesome";
// Glyphicons
@import "twitter/bootstrap/glyphicons.less";
// Your custom LESS stylesheets goes here
//
// Since bootstrap was imported above you have access to its mixins which
// you may use and inherit here
//
// If you'd like to override bootstrap's own variables, you can do so here as well
// See http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/customize.html#variables for their names and documentation
//
// Example:
// @link-color: #ff0000;
@import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Capriola);
and when i use the class <i class="fa fa-user"></i>
like this glyphicon is showing. But for the class <i class="glyphicon glyphicon-user"></i
the glyphicon is not displaying the proper image.

Bootstrap is not being included in your asset pipeline correctly, try this workaround by importing from the CDN source instead of loading from an asset file:
Add this to the head section of your application.html.erb file in your views/layout folder:
FontAwesome icons:
Glyphicon icons, which are packaged with the bootstrap minified CDN:
I would strongly suggest you to switch to https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap-sass and follow the guide there
