O.k., I'm running an XP SP3 box and have installed ruby 186-26 and gems 1.1.1 (Had to ditch 1.2, because I kept getting errors with it)
Anyways, funny story goes like this: I can't do this: C:\WebSite\N2N>gem update Updating installed gems Bulk updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org/ Updating hpricot Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::Installer::ExtensionBuildError) ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. c:/ruby/bin/ruby.exe extconf.rb update checking for stdio.h... no *** extconf.rb failed *** Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more details. You may need configuration options. Provided configuration options: --with-opt-dir --without-opt-dir --with-opt-include --without-opt-include=${opt-dir}/include --with-opt-lib --without-opt-lib=${opt-dir}/lib --with-make-prog --srcdir=. --curdir --ruby=c:/ruby/bin/ruby Gem files will remain installed in c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/hpricot-0.6.16 1 for inspection. Results logged to c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/hpricot-0.6.161/ext/fast_xs/gem _make.out BUT, I can do this: C:\WebSite\N2N>gem update --system Updating RubyGems Bulk updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org/ Nothing to update And, I successfully used gem install, to install Watir. My current issue, is trying to install sqlit3-ruby... It just doesn't want to do it, and I've already added the 3 required files to the bin directory. Any ideas!? I'm familiar with stdio.h, as it's the input/output header for C - is it not a default header/include in windows? (Especially with .NET and Visual Studio installed) Or does the stdio.h have to be located in another ruby/gem dependent directory?
