Hi,
I am trying to install curb on my windows machine. I went through a few web
pages directing to install it. I installed curl-7.19.6 binary and provided
the path in the environment variables. I can now use the curl command line.
Then I went on to installing curb using the gem install curb.
It gave me the following error.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop>gem install curb
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing curb:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
C:/Ruby/bin/ruby.exe extconf.rb install curb
checking for curl-config... no
checking for main() in curl.lib... 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
--with-curl-dir
--without-curl-dir
--with-curl-include
--without-curl-include=${curl-dir}/include
--with-curl-lib
--without-curl-lib=${curl-dir}/lib
--with-curllib
--without-curllib
extconf.rb:12: Can't find libcurl or curl/curl.h (RuntimeError)
Try passing --with-curl-dir or --with-curl-lib and --with-curl-include
options to extconf.
Gem files will remain installed in
C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/curb-0.5.4.0 f
or inspection.
Results logged to
C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/curb-0.5.4.0/ext/gem_make.out
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The path of curl folder is under c drive
c:/curl-7.19.6
How do I install curl on my windows machine...
Thank you.
