Guys, If you've been trying to install the latest heroku gem on Windows, you may have run into a bit of trouble.
Now that we include the taps gem, the heroku client has several new dependencies - most notably taps. Unfortunately, there are a couple of gems down the dependency chain whose Windows versions are lagging a bit behind. Here's what you need to do to make the install work: 1) Install SQLite 3 Go to http://www.sqlite.org/download.html and download the precompiled binaries for Windows. You'll need the command-line program and the DLL. It should be a total of 3 files, which you can paste in to c:\ruby \bin (that's the standard location chosen for ruby by the ruby one- click installer for Windows). 2) Install the sqlite3-ruby gem The latest version (1.2.4) doesn't have a working Windows version, so you need to install the previous version: gem install sqlite3-ruby -v 1.2.3. 3) Install the json gem With this gem, you need to go several versions back and install 1.1.1: gem install json -v 1.1.1 4) Install the heroku gem Finish off with gem install heroku to get the latest version of our rubygem. This is obviously a little cumbersome. We're looking into how we can make the process smoother on Windows, but the easiest thing would be to get those gems caught up version-wise. Feel free to make your Windows needs known to the maintainers :) Finally, show of hands - if you don't mind - how many of you guys are using Windows?
