Sqlite3 is what you want to use. Before installing sqlite3-ruby you need to be sure you've got sqlite3 installed correctly. The site to go to is: http://www.sqlite.org/.
You can follow the Downloads link to get the pre-compiled version for Windows. You want to get both sqlite-3_6_20.zip and sqlitedll-3_6_20.zip. They need to be installed in a directory that is on your path. I have little experience with the MS environment but sqlite3_aggregate_context comes from the sqlite3 api. I'm guessing that, if you've already installed sqlite3, that it cannot be found when you do "gem install sqlite3-ruby" Part of the gem installation includes compiling some c code. This code will need sqlite3 header files and library. HTH On Nov 12, 7:00 pm, kangaroo99 <[email protected]> wrote: > There were many error lines.
