Hi! I'm trying to install ferret on windows, so I chose ferret-0.10.9-mswin32.gem from the download page, as it includes a already pre-compiled ferret_ext.so (is that correct?) and I don't have any C compiler here. The gem installed it correctly, but the test didn't work. So I called these commands: rake ext ruby setup.rb config ruby setup.rb setup ruby setup.rb install
the first was aborted (missing nmake of course) I copied the extconf.rb from the 0.10.11 distribution, as it was not included. The 2nd command said "The C extensions could not be installed", the 3rd told me not to worry about that and the 4th seemed to work fine. After that the tests are running, but keep crashing with C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/ferret/index.rb:125: [BUG] Segmentation fault ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32] Is that because this version is buggy or is there no other way than to install a C compiler? Thanks for your help. hawe. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. _______________________________________________ Ferret-talk mailing list Ferret-talk@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/ferret-talk
