Configuring ruby 3.1.3 failed - ruby

I am installing ruby 3.1 via ruby-install utility on MAC OS (12.6). While execution, I see the following error:

Tried with other utilities and other ruby versions.

Make sure your xcode is updated. Installer was not able to find command line tools and therefore the configuration was not getting set - resulting in failure.

NRPE on solaris 8

There is a way to get this compilers or somenthing like that?
Thanks for support.

Compiling Octave 4.2.1 in linux, can't link to PCRE library with GCC 4.9.3

When running the configure script for Octave, I do:
./configure CFLAGS="-I/customlibs/pcre/gnu/8.40/include -L/customlibs/pcre/gnu/8.40/lib/" LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/customlibs/pcre/gnu/8.40/lib"
I have also tried:
./configure CFLAGS="-I/customlibs/pcre/gnu/8.40/include" LDFLAGS="-L/customlibs/pcre/gnu/8.40/lib/" LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/customlibs/pcre/gnu/8.40/lib"
Both of these produce the same failure:
checking pcre.h usability... yes
checking pcre.h presence... no
configure: WARNING: pcre.h: accepted by the compiler, rejected by the preprocessor!
configure: WARNING: pcre.h: proceeding with the compiler's result
checking for pcre.h... yes
checking pcre/pcre.h usability... no
checking pcre/pcre.h presence... no
checking for pcre/pcre.h... no
checking whether pcre.h defines the macros we need... no
configure: error: to build Octave, you must have the PCRE library and header files installed
I'm lost as to how it can find pcre.h but fails to do anything else with it. Am I doing something wrong on my configure line or is pcre broken? If it's my configure line, how do I link against pcre correctly?
For reference, here's the pcre path:
ls /customlibs/pcre/gnu/8.40/
bin
include
lib
share
I was struggling with that for a while as well, but the solution was actually very simple. just use CPPFLAGS rather than CFLAGS for include files:
./configure CPPFLAGS="-I/customlibs/pcre/gnu/8.40/include" LDFLAGS="-L/customlibs/pcre/gnu/8.40/lib/"
There's also no need for LD_LIBRARY_PATH upon configuring.

How can I install System.Console.Readline for Haskell GHCi on Windows?

I am trying to run a haskell file from command prompt. I get the following error :
Failed to load interface for `System.Console.Readline'
Perhaps you meant System.Console.Haskeline (from haskeline-0.7.2.3)
Locations searched:
System\Console\Readline.hs
System\Console\Readline.lhs
System\Console\Readline.hsig
System\Console\Readline.lhsig
I thought readline came as part of cabal when you installed the full version of haskell? (which I have done) Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?
EDIT: I tried >cabal update, followed by >cabal install readline, and I now get this:

install mcrypt for phpMyAdmin on Mac Lion with Xcode 4.3

I try to install phpMyAdmin on my Mac running Lion (10.7.3). It required mcrypt.
I found the link:
http://www.glenscott.co.uk/blog/2011/08/29/install-mcrypt-php-extension-on-mac-os-x-lion/
On my friend's Mac, the link is good. But on my Mac, it cannot run. I encounter the error from the statement of installing libmcrypt:

I see that my friend use Xcode 4.2, and I use Xcode 4.3. I'm not sure whether it's the reason. Any suggestion? Thank you!
Open Xcode, go to preferences and go to the 'Downloads' Tab, there you will find a list, find the one that says 'Command Line Tools' and click on Install and -> Done.
You would need an account as a developer to install that though, if you don't have one, create it, its free.

Error when updating my Ruby version using RVM on Mac OS X 10.6.6

I tried to update Ruby in my Mac OS X 10.6.6 system. Now I have 1.8.7, and I want to update to 1.9.2.
When I typed rvm install 1.9.2 I got:
gal-harths-iMac:~ galharth$ rvm install 1.9.2
/Users/galharth/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p136, this may take a while depending on your cpu(s)...

There has been an error while running configure. Halting the installation.
I installed XCode and it still doesn't work.

There are some oddities in your log file output. Your question shows you have Mac OS 10.6.6, but the log shows the OS is i386. Mac OS 10.6.6 should be x86_64. This means for some reason your system thinks it's 32-bit when it should be 64bit. Your version of XCode needs to be current, so if you didn't just download it and install it, then do so. The version of XCode on the Snow Leopard disk was buggy, and the version for Mac OS prior to Snow Leopard is out of date once you install 10.6 on your machine.
Here's some things to try. If one works you're done, otherwise try the next one.
Do rvm -v and note the version number, then rvm get head followed by rvm reload if the version number displayed after updating has changed. Try running rvm install 1.9.2-p136.
Delete the files in your ~/.rvm/src/ruby-1.9.2-p136 directory using rm ~/.rvm/src/ruby-1.9.2-p136, then try installing using the install command in #1.
Manually download a copy of Ruby 1.9.2-p136 into your ~/.rvm/archives directory and extract it into your ~/.rvm/src/ruby-1.9.2-p136 directory. You can cd ~/.rvm/archives, delete any existing old version of the archive, then use curl -O ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org:21//pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.2-p136.tar.gz or wget ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org:21//pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.2-p136.tar.gz to pull in a new version. Then cd ~/.rvm/src then the rm command from #2 above followed by tar zxvf ../archives/ruby-1.9.2-p136.tar.gz to extract the files, then try running the RVM install command in #1.
I have a machine that's behind a proxy that won't allow RVM to get to the Ruby repositories, causing the archive to actually be the proxy's failure notice. When RVM tried burst the tar file, it would fail, but not catch the problem, then would try to configure and fail. The fix was to manually download the archive and burst it into the src directory.
Using the command rvm install 1.9.3 --with-gcc=clang worked for me.
When this happened to me, I inserted the Snow Leopard disk, selected Optional Installs and installed the Xcode package. That solved the missing C compiler problem as described here. Thanks to this blog: http://www.brianp.net/2009/09/05/snow-leopards-ate-my-c-compiler/
In my case, once I solved the compiler problem I got a permissions error. Running as root in bash gave rvm the appropriate permissions.
If you are running Lion check to make sure you have the Command Line Tools installed. They separated them from XCode so they are a separate download now. You can find them here:
