But had firewall and anti-virus running. After disabling both was able to do gem update and install. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Keith Hyland (khylo) Date: 2007-12-09 13:26 Message: I had the same problem. For me it was a http_proxy system variable that was causing the problem. You may need to add or remove a proxy to access the web. THis can be done by simply adding or removing the http_proxy system variable. I've written about it on my blogpage http://khylo.blogspot.com/2007/12/ruby-on-rails-headaches.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Michael Yates (mjyates) Date: 2007-07-26 09:15 Message: Eric: Thank you for looking into this. I can't do the upgrade and check as I don't have a Windows system anymore, only Linux. Sorry.

Reopen if you get the same behavior. Jim: You probably can't resolve gems.rubyforge.org. Check your DNS. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jim Jacobs (jacobs2k) Date: 2007-04-15 18:23 Message: I've run into the same problem. Neither _gem_ nor _ruby_ seem to be able to connect to a remote host. I'd be quite delighted to find what silly thing I've done to break this. I had ruby and instiki running in the past, but after recently reinstalling both, I've had this puzzling error. So, if its a bug, I can confirm its existence. If its the result of an installation error of some sort, you know you're not alone. Anyone have a clue of the cause/solution to this? Here's a example error message: C:\>gem -v 0.9.2 C:\>gem install instiki ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError) getaddrinfo: no address associated with hostname.(SocketError) C:\>ruby -v ruby 1.8.6 (2007-03-13 patchlevel 0) [i386-mswin32] jljfw...@gmail.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jim Jacobs (jacobs2k) Date: 2007-04-15 18:18 Message: I've run into the same problem.
