I keep hitting an error when running $ Bundle Install
An error occurred while installing capybara-webkit (0.12.1), and
Bundler cannot continue. Make sure that gem install capybara-webkit
-v '0.12.1' succeeds before bundling.
Is there a way to bypass this gem and continue with the install?
Thank you!
If capybara-webkit is dependency of one of your other gems, you can't bypass installing it, since another gem requires it to function. Otherwise, just remove / comment it out in your Gemfile.
According to capybara-webkit Github page you've gotta setup Qt first before installing:
capybara-webkit depends on a WebKit implementation from Qt, a cross-platform development toolkit. You'll need to download the Qt libraries to build and install the gem. You can find instructions for downloading and installing QT on the capybara-webkit wiki. capybara-webkit requires Qt version 4.8.

I wanna deploy my grails application on AppFog. To do this, I've installed Ruby 22 x64 and devkit mengv64. I've extracted devkit.7z to C:\ruby, done commands: dk.rb install,dk.rb init. Then, I entered a command: gem install af,
but I got such error: Error installing af: failed to build gem native extension. How to fix it?
There is often an issue with the escape_utils gem. This a general limitation of RubyGems. If there's a problem with a gem dependencies, new installs of the af gem or updates to any of its gem dependencies can screw things up. That's why AppFog v2 is testing a binary executable to avoid this mess.
That being said, the general practice for installing on Windows is to install the Ruby environment you want and install the appropriate dev kit. When that's done, you'll need to find the Ruby Enabled Command Prompt. Usually, Start > Programs > Ruby*. Everything below should now be done from there:
ruby dk.rb install
ruby dk.rb init
gem update --system
gem install escape_utils -v 1.0.1
This gem regularly has problems, especially for Windows, so this is usually the best version to go with for the time being.
gem install af
Here's AF's article for installing the gem on Windows: Installing the AF CLI Tool on Windows.
Either the App Fog gem requires a native extension, or one of its dependencies does.
Does the error show which gem is failing?
According to RubyGems, there are some dependencies. I don't see which one would require a native extension.
So, you may want to try installing the dependencies and see if one of them fails.
After installing pik and changing my Ruby version to 2.0.0, bundler no long works properly

Installing the devkit from Ruby Installer sort of defeats the reason why I went to the trouble of installing pik. How can I fix this, so that in the future, I can easily update ruby using pik and still have everything working?
I had the same problem - if you follow the instructions listed (ie installing devkit and following their directions [they don't actually tell you to use rubyinstaller]), you'll be fine. Also make sure that during the init phase of the Devkit instructions that it doesn't miss any of your ruby installations.
A note though, it seems that pik can't specify the x64 version of 2.0.0, so you may run into problems if that's the case. In the end I had to use the rubyinstaller for the x64 version of ruby, and then ran the x64 version of the devkit.
Hope this helps.
I think Josh' answer is probably right, but I actually installed Ubuntu as a VM in the end, just so I could use RVM.
RVM is a thousand times better than Pik, and it installs the DevKit. It's so good it's genuinely worth installing Ubuntu just so you can use it.
I can install capybara-webkit on Mac, when I deployed code on Ubuntu, I am facing below error

Even I tried with sudo gem install capybara-webkit -v '0.12.1'
I am getting same error.
Install libqt4-dev and it will fix your problem
sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev
read this one for more information.
Please let me know if you have still problem on this
capybara-webkit depends on a WebKit implementation from Qt, a cross-platform development toolkit. You'll need to download the Qt libraries to build and install the gem. capybara-webkit 0.12.x depends on Qt >= 4.6 and capybara-webkit 0.13+ depends on Qt >= 4.7. You can check your version of Qt by running qmake -v.
If you get an error when building, along the lines of fatal error: QObject: No such file or directory, you might be attempting the build against Qt3. Either uninstall Qt3, or make sure that the qmake in your PATH links to Qt4. ...more
For those getting this error on Mac, try this:
brew update
brew install qt
bundle
I've installed a instantrail2.0. I want to install watir 1.65
First I installed watir-1.6.5.gem it said 302 fetching http://gems.r....
then I downlord a rubygems-update-1.3.7.gem and type
gem install --local rubygems-update-1.3.7.gem
successfully installed.
then I type in update_rubygems
next I type in gem install watir-1.6.5.gem
but it appears ERROR:Failed to build gem native extension
I searched and found an answer that 1.3.7 doesn't support win32.
then I type
gem install sqlite3-ruby -v 1.3.0 gem install watir-1.6.5.gem
ERROR:Failed to build gem native extension
gem install sqlite3-ruby -v 1.2.3 gem install watir-1.6.5.gem
ERROR:Failed to build gem native extension
How can I do next??
use a more current version of Watir
I second Zeljko, going with the latest versions of rubygems and watir totally makes sense. If you must stick to older gems, try installing Ruby DevKit and then do the gem install to see if that helps.
What version of Ruby are you using? You should be using Ruby 1.8.6 with that version of Watir. I am also wondering if part of your problem is that you are doing a local install, instead of installing from internet. Local installs of Watir are difficult because of all of its dependencies.
Update: Check out this follow-up question: Gem Update on Windows - is it broken?
On Windows, when I do this:
gem install sqlite3-ruby
I get the following error:

Same thing happens with the hpricot gem. I seem to remember these gems installed just fine on < 1.0 gems, but now I'm on 1.2.0, things have gone screwy.
I have also tried this:
gem install sqlite3-ruby --platform Win32
Needless to say, this doesn't work either (same error)
Does anyone know what is going on here and how to fix this?
Update: Check out this follow-up question: Gem Update on Windows - is it broken?
As Nathan suggests, this does appear to be related to the fact that the latest versions of the sqlite3-ruby and hpricot gems don't appear to have Windows versions. Here's what to do when faced with this situation (note, the name of the gem is automatically wildcarded, so you can type just sql and get a list of all gems beginning with sql):
$ gem list --remote --all sqlite
*** REMOTE GEMS ***
sqlite (2.0.1, 2.0.0, 1.3.1, 1.3.0, 1.2.9.1, 1.2.0, 1.1.3, 1.1.2, 1.1.1, 1.1)
sqlite-ruby (2.2.3, 2.2.2, 2.2.1, 2.2.0, 2.1.0, 2.0.3, 2.0.2)
sqlite3-ruby (1.2.4, 1.2.3, 1.2.2, 1.2.1, 1.2.0, 1.1.0, 1.0.1, 1.0.0, 0.9.0, 0.6.0, 0.5.0)
Then you can choose the version you would like to install:
gem install sqlite3-ruby -v 1.2.3
To successfully install hpricot, I did this:
gem install hpricot -v 0.6
Annoyingly, doing a gem update tries to update the gems to their latest, broken-on-Windows, versions. When the update routine encounters an error, it ditches you out of the whole process. There's a (hacky) solution to this problem here.
So, is this issue a bug in gems? Should gems not automatically detect the platform and install the latest compatible version?
I had the same problem on Ubuntu, this solved the problem for me:
http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive/Comp/comp.lang.ruby/2008-08/msg00339.html
first from sqlite.org(http://www.sqlite.org/download.html)
download ->
Precompiled Binaries: sqlite-dll-win32-x86-3071700.zip
and Source Code: sqlite-autoconf-3071700.tar.gz
then extract as:
-include
--sqlite3.h
--sqlite3ext.h
-lib
--shell.c
--sqlite3.c
--sqlite3.def
--sqlite3.dll
last install gem like:
gem install sqlite3 --platform=ruby -- --with-sqlite3-include=path\to\include
--with-sqlite3-lib=path\to\lib --no-ri --no-rdoc
Good luck!
Is it possible that the newest version has not yet been ported to Win32 yet? Since this particular gem does have bindings to compiled code, it would require a platform-specific gem. If I force installation of version 1.2.3 rather than the current 1.2.4, the platform-specific version does install, but when I allow gem to try to install the current version, I get the generic 1.2.4 version (in the gems library folder, it lacks the -x86-mswin32 suffix that the other sqlite3-ruby folders have in their names.
Maybe someone else can answer how gem handles platform specific gems. Are separate gems uploaded for each platform and the gem software selects which one to pull down?
I also ran into this problem. It's worth knowing that the difference between 1.2.3 and 1.2.4 is not significant. Here are the 1.2.4. release notes:
Release Name: 1.2.4
Notes: This release only updates the
generated C file to reflect the
compatibility changes that were made
to the SWIG file. Binary builds (e.g.,
Windows) are not affected, and need no
update. In general, you will not need
this update unless you are using a
version of Ruby prior to 1.8.6.
(source: 1.2.4. release notes)
Hope that helps others!
I had the same problem on Windows and I have installe MinGW
