Hi,
I am trying to install libxml on windows ruby from gem file [1], and though
install output suggests install was successful with "1 gem installed", in
the build.log it says "rake aborted! No Rakefile found (looking for:
build.rake).
Assuming install worked nonetheless, when I try to require 'libxml' [2], it
reports that libxml_ruby.so could not be found, even though it does
actually exist, although it's only 209KB.
Ideas anyone? New to ruby, so not exactly sure why there's a rake error
logged when gem apparently installed, and also why it's reported the .so
file doesn't exist when it does.
Incidentally, I tried running rake in the
directory C:\Ruby200\lib\ruby\gems\2.0.0\gems\libxml-ruby-1.1.3-x86-mswin32-60,
but it appears to attempt to execute unix commands, and fails needless to
say on:
tar zcvf libxml-ruby-1.1.3.tgz libxml-ruby-1.1.3
rake aborted!
Command failed with status (127): [tar zcvf libxml-ruby-1.1.3.tgz
libxml-ruby...]
