Summary: Handling of Windows paths broken in 1.3.3
Initial Comment:
Installing gems from local drives other than the current is broken on Windows.
RubyGems strips the drive letter (through using the URI class for something
which isn't an URI).
C:\> gem install p:\path\to\mygem-2.1.18.gem
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno::ENOENT)
No such file or directory - /path/to/mygem-2.1.18.gem
Then I tried to pass a valid URI:
C:\> gem install file:///p:/path/to/mygem-2.1.18.gem
But that doesn't work either;
ERROR: could not find gem file:///p:/path/to/mygem-2.1.18.gem locally or in a
repository
I believe this is because URI#path returns "/p:/path/to/mygem..." (with leading
slash), which is not a valid path on Windows.
Finally, I attempted to hack RubyGems to prefix file:/// itself, but I don't
understand the reason for this line of code in remote_fetcher.rb:
remote_gem_path = File.join(path, 'gems', gem_file_name)
That causes this error instead:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno::ENOENT)
No such file or directory - p:/path/to/gems/mygem-2.1.18.gem
Notice the extra /gems/ path.

Hello,
First you need to use SET VARIABLE=VALUE, not "env" as env is not a native
Windows command, perhaps from gnuwin32.
Also, you can modify those at runtime, but everyt ie you start a new command
prompt or session, the values will be restored with the values your Admin set
for you.
Is Z: mapped? do you have write permissions to the root?
Can you do this?
ruby -rfileutils -ve "FileUtils.touch 'z:/foo'"

My HomeDrive still remains Z: after I used env HOMEDRIVE=C:
C:\Ruby192\bin>set gem
Environment variable gem not defined
C:\Ruby192\bin>set home
HOMEDRIVE=Z:
HOMEPATH=\
HOMESHARE=\(servername)\users\saurabh.doshi
I am using 32 bit Win XP and have installed gnuwin32. I have added
C:\gnuwin32\bin to my PATH env variable.
Does the Default drive change from Z: to C: be done at the domain level by my
System Administrator?
Thanks,

Can you tell me what "SET GEM" tells you? Also, what "SET HOME" tells you?
Please include complete output. Also, include details about the exact version
of Windows you're using,a nd if is 64bits, if you had E-editor installed or
cygwin.

Thanks Luis,
Apologies for posting this against this thread.
Here is my gem env :
RubyGems Environment:
- RUBYGEMS VERSION: 1.3.7
- RUBY VERSION: 1.9.2 (2010-08-18 patchlevel 0) [i386-mingw32]
- INSTALLATION DIRECTORY: C:/Ruby192/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1
- RUBY EXECUTABLE: C:/Ruby192/bin/ruby.exe
- EXECUTABLE DIRECTORY: C:/Ruby192/bin
- RUBYGEMS PLATFORMS:
- ruby
- x86-mingw32
- GEM PATHS:
- C:/Ruby192/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1
- GEM CONFIGURATION:
- :update_sources => true
- :verbose => true
- :benchmark => false
- :backtrace => false
- :bulk_threshold => 1000
- REMOTE SOURCES:
- http://rubygems.org/
My HomeDrive was Z:, I changed it to C:
HomePath = \
USERPROFILE=C:\Documents and Settings\saurabh.doshi
Still getting the error. Based on my environment, do I need to set the GEM_HOME
variable?

Saurabh,
Seems to me that your report has nothing to do with the original report here.
See, it is indicating "Z:/" not been accesible or exist, while you have C: as
your system drive.
Please provide the full output of "gem env" when reporting any error.
Also, see what are the values of HOME, HOMEDRIVE, HOMEPATH and USERPROFILE in
your system (use SET command).

Message:
Looks like a bug in line 142 of remote_fetcher.rb related to the URI class and
the fact that we're stripping the scheme off of Windows paths.
It works for "C:" because, iirc, certain Ruby core File methods assume "C:" if
no drive is found. We'll have to fix this.

Dan

Well, this is odd. I tried installing from an explicit path using "C:\Documents
and Settings\djberge". That worked fine. But, when I tried to install from a
drive other than "C:", things went bad:

I'll have to investigate further to determine if this is a bug in rubygems or
fileutils.

Message:
The use of file urls is meant for use with the --source flag (i.e. from a local
repository), which is why the method includes the 'gems' directory.
However, the "gem install p:\path\to\mygem-2.1.18.gem" should work. I'll take a
look.

Dan
