Hello, I am trying to install watir on a Windows XP PC. I could install ruby and check gem version as:
C:\>gem -v 1.3.7 #Next I tried: C:\>gem update --system #I got the below response: Updating RubyGems ERROR: http://rubygems.org/ does not appear to be a repository ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError) SocketError: getaddrinfo: No such host is known. (http:// rubygems.org/yaml) #My Ruby version shown is: C:\>ruby -v ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18) [i386-mingw32] #Then I tried: C:\>gem update --system -p http://proxy.companyserver.com:8080 #The response was: Updating RubyGems ERROR: http://rubygems.org/ does not appear to be a repository ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError) bad response Proxy Authentication Required ( The ISA Server requires authori zation to fulfill the request. Access to the Web Proxy filter is denied. ) 407 (http://rubygems.org/yaml) #Then I tried: C:\>gem update --system -p http://domain\user:[email protected]:8080 #The response was: ERROR: While executing gem ... (OptionParser::InvalidArgument) invalid argument: -p http://domain\user:[email protected]:8080 #Normally I specify domain\username while loggin to the proxy for internet. Is "\" a problem? #My password has special character #. Is this any issue? #I went through many posts on watir installation but could not find one that totally matches this error. Please guide. I am new to ruby/ watir. -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support. In short: search before you ask, be nice.
