When I try to install any gem: Failed.
Worked good for me from home, but it's not working from my work place. I tried pinging the rubygems.org site, but it's not pinging. I downloaded the gems straight from the site and put it in the folder: (watir-webdriver)
C:\Ruby193\lib\ruby\gems\1.9.1\gems>
Installed gems like this: C:\Ruby193\lib\ruby\gems\1.9.1\gems>gem install watir-webdriver
Getting this error: C:\Ruby193\lib\ruby\gems\1.9.1\gems>gem install watir-webdriver
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Zlib::GzipFile::Error)

Are you behind a proxy? In that case see this pages for help:

If you are installing on linux (which I had a similar issue on Ubuntu), you will need to follow these instructions
First, get the right zlib driver
sudo apt-get install libzlib-ruby
Second, check your sources and possibly add to them:
gem sources
gem sources -a http://gems.rubyforge.org/
gem sources -a http://rubygems.org
BTW, I had a long process of updating my various libraries on Ubuntu to enable reasonable IRB interaction (history, tab-complete, color, etc.) on Ubuntu. It took some work but was worth it to be able to use RVM.

I've written a Ruby gem that I'd like to install locally. I'm using Rubygems 3.0.6 and RVM on OS X Mojave. This is a closed source gem and I'd rather not go to the trouble of publishing it to the company gemservers. I'm able to install other (published) gems just fine using both bundle install and gem install.
The gem is all built (using gem build) and the code works, but when I run:
gem install influx_trello_utility-0.1.0.gem
I get an error:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::Package::PathError)
installing into parent path /bin/[ of /Users/danascheider/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.6.3#influx_trello_utility/gems/influx_trello_utility-0.1.0 is not allowed
Any help with this would be much appreciated. I'm not sure what additional information would be useful, but I'm happy to answer any questions you may have. Thanks!
I need to install some Ruby gems in Windows in the offline-mode (without internet). I have gem files downloaded from the other PC.
As long as the gem does not require specific options (with --), I just execute gem install somegem --local and everything is fine.
But if the gem does require those options, there is a trouble. For example, I want to install sqlite3-1.3.10.gem:
gem install sqlite3 --local -- --with-sqlite3-dir="c:\programs\sqlite"
This returns me an error:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (OptionParser::InvalidOption)
invalid option: --with-sqlite3-dir=c:\programs\sqlite
What is wrong?
ruby 2.2.2p95 (2015-04-13 revision 50295) [x64-mingw32]
Rails 4.2.2
Got the reason. I ran all commands in Windows PowerShell.
Now I tried to do it in usual cmd.exe - and it just worked.
Just for a case here is how I installed sqlite3.gem: followed instructions from https://stackoverflow.com/a/16023062 and executed command:
gem install sqlite3-1.3.10.gem --local --platform=ruby -- '--with-sqlite3-dir="c:/programs/sqlite" --with-sqlite3-lib="c:/programs/sqlite/.libs" --with-sqlite3-include="c:/programs/sqlite"'
Thank you for comments, they helped to correct the command.
am trying to install sass after installing ruby, but iam getting following error, please help me to fix this
maradhak#WW730VW7X1688 /c/softwares
$ gem -v
2.2.2
maradhak#WW730VW7X1688 /c/softwares
$ gem install sass
ERROR: Could not find a valid gem 'sass' (>= 0), here is why:
Unable to download data from https://rubygems.org/ - SSL_connect retur
ned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server certificate B: certificate verify failed (
https://rubygems.org/latest_specs.4.8.gz)
The error has something to do with being vulnerable to the Poodle SSL bug, it will not be verified for that reason. If there's a way to upgrade to a better certificate, but at the time of writing this answer, I could not find the upgraded certificate.
I used the non-SSL host instead, altough I should note that this is not the best nor a permanent solution, it lacks security.
The command used:
gem source -a http://rubygems.org/
A discussion about this subject can be found here: https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/issues/515#issuecomment-65326585
Update: There seems to be a permanent solution now, which replaces the certificate with a proper protected one. It can be found on the following URL, an tutorial is included in that page.
https://gist.github.com/luislavena/f064211759ee0f806c88#installing-using-update-packages-new
Short answer:
gem sources -a http://rubygems.org/
Confirm than you don't really care about that specific warning, since you trust rubygems.org. Then:
gem install sass
And it works.
thanks for your suggestions, as you guys said this seems to be SSH update issue.
have solved this issue simply down graded my RUBY version from "2.1.5" to "1.8", and the gem version is "1.8.29".
then i was able to install SASS
Following worked for me:
Remove the https source temporary, run gem update --system and then switch back to https.
gem sources --remove https://rubygems.org/
gem sources --add http://rubygems.org
gem update --system
gem sources --remove http://rubygems.org
gem sources --add https://rubygems.org
Ref: https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/issues/1736
I also encountered the same problem today。
Running gem install sass returned
ERROR: Could not find a valid gem 'sass' (>= 0), here is why:Unable to download data from https://rubygems.org/ -SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3read server certificate B: certificate verify failed(https://api.rubygems.org/specs.4.8.gz)
Then I find a way to fix it:
gem sources -a http://rubygems.org/
gem install sass
Adding http://rubygems.org/ to sources solves this.
Here is a capture of my terminal
For me it was a proxy issue. When I appended the proxy details to the gem install command it worked.
gem install sass --http-proxy=http://<yourproxy>:<port>
The first step to Rubygems(http://rubygems.org/) then download sass on（http://rubygems.org/gems/sass）
put in: npm install
You don't need to disable SSH or downgrade your ruby version, you can simply install the SASS gem manually. Here's how to do it:
On windows, first install the Ruby installer for windows.
Download the latest version of the gem from here:
https://rubygems.org/gems/sass Click the latest version, and then on
the right side of the screen (in Links section) click the "Download"
link to download the original gem file (sass-*.*.*.gem)
Now paste the downloaded gem file to the directory that ruby is
installed on: C:\Ruby22-x64\bin\sass-*.*.*.gem
In Command Prompt run the following commands:
cd C:Ruby22-x64/bin
gem install sass-*.*.*.gem1
NOTE: You may also need to call the local flag while installing the gem: gem install --local C:Ruby22-x64/bin/sass-*.*.*.gem
Install a full fledged Cygwin on your windows, the ssh support is good in it. You should be able to install it without any extra efforts, well I always do. In fact once you have Cygwin install you would hardly use the command prompt.
I'm totally new to Ruby and Sass. I didn't want to risk security and I'm on a Windows machine. I had already installed latest ruby, but kept getting the same error message as the OP when trying to run gem install sass at the command prompt.
Here's what solved the problem for me.
Go to: https://rubygems.org/pages/download and follow the instructions on the page starting here (for manual installation):
If you don't have any RubyGems installed, there is still the pre-gem approach to getting software, doing it manually:
Download from above (URL above)
Unpack/unzip into a directory and cd there (into the directory you unzipped it)
Install with: ruby setup.rb (at the command line type that command. You may need admin/root privilege)
After I installed ruby gems, I opened Ruby command prompt (using Start Command Prompt with Ruby from the start menu) and ran the command gem install sass and it worked:
C:\Users\chris>gem install sass
Fetching: sass-3.4.22.gem (100%)
Successfully installed sass-3.4.22

Wanted to detail it as much as possible for other newbies like me. Hope this helps someone.
Changing from http to https makes your computer vulnerable to hackers
I explain some solutions in my answer here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/40075753/845413
If you found this error by searching and are using RVM on OSX just run.
rvm osx-ssl-certs update all
Bundler outlines a few other solutions in their troubleshooting guide for this error: http://bundler.io/v1.16/guides/rubygems_tls_ssl_troubleshooting_guide.html#troubleshooting-certificate-errors
and include...
gem install bundler
gem update --system
Finally, you can simply reinstall RVM or rubygems manually.

I am trying to install sproutcore on a windows xp vm (virtualbox), for development, using RubyGems. When gems reaches haml-3.0.25.gem it stops with the error:
gem install sproutcore -V
...
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Zlib::DataError)
invalid stored block lengths
I have tried both Ruby 1.8.7 and 1.9.2 as well as RubyGems 1.7.1 and 1.8.1.
I tried downloading haml 3.1.1 with git and installing it manually, but the rake would not install. It said something about 'lib/haml' not found. The directory did exist.
Other gems install just fine under all the combinations I tried. I even tried installing it under my host OS (Win 7 32-bit), but it gave the same error. Installing haml by itself changes the error message only slightly:
gem install haml -V
...
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Zlib::DataError)
invalid code lengths set
Zlib compresses and decompresses data streams from what I have read, so it sounds like the haml gem might be corrupt (although I doubt).
I am at my wits end and could find no helpful advice anywhere.
Special thanks to #saner for his contribution. After a lot of frustration, this is how I finally installed sproutcore on a Windows XP VM running on a Windows 7 host.
1) Download and install Ruby 1.9.2-p180 (remember to tick the option to include the bin directory in the PATH variable).
2) Download DevKit 4.5.1 and extract it.
3) Open a command prompt and cd to the extracted directory.
4) Run:
ruby dk.rb init
ruby dk.rb review
ruby dk.rb install
5) Download RubyGems 1.7.2 and run setup.rb
6) From the command prompt run
gem install haml -v 3.0.24
gem install eventmachine --pre
gem install sproutcore --pre
Thats it.
Enjoy.
I was able to install SproutCore on Ruby 1.9.2:
Install Ruby 1.9.2-p180
gem install sproutcore --pre
gem install eventmachine --pre
gem uninstall thin
gem install mongrel
I needed to remove thin because starting sc-server ended with errors, SproutCore will use mongrel instead of thin.
Update:
I didn't mention that I use RubyGems 1.7.2 and I have installed DevKit and Cygwin.
I removed all versions of SproutCore, Mongrel and Haml, then I typed:
gem install sproutcore --pre, SproutCore v1.6.0.beta.1 was installed.
eventmachine --pre, eventmachine (1.0.0.beta.3 x86-mingw32) was installed
SproutCore works with this setup, using mongrel was not necessary.
My configuration: sproutcore (1.6.0.beta.1), ruby 1.9.2p180, gem 1.7.2, thin (1.2.11 x86-mingw32), eventmachine (1.0.0.beta.3 x86-mingw32), haml (3.0.25), gcc version 4.5.0 (GCC)
I know this is a really old question, but since I just experienced the same problem, I've decided to add my insights on it.
So, it happened while I was trying to install the same set of gems on two different machines with different architectures, with different locations and respectively in different networks. I.e. - my home mac and a remote linux server.
So, one particular gem (dm-sqlite-adapter) failed installing on both machines, and I even tried it couple of times, but always with the same result:
$ gem install dm-sqlite-adapter
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Zlib::DataError)
invalid code lengths set
Then I spent few minutes browsing the network for a solution, including reading this thread.
Since I didn't find any satisfying answer and I wasn't pleased with the idea of reinstalling everything, decided to act dumb and tried gem install one more time.. And it worked. Then tried the other machine - worked like a charm.
So as a conclusion I'd just guess that the problem came from the remote repo and maybe the gem hadn't even downloaded at all (I forgot to check that prior to succeeding installing it). But as I said - it's just a guess..

If you are not set on using the packages in the Ubuntu repos(and I see no reason why you'd be), I'd suggest following this guide:
http://ryanbigg.com/2010/12/ubuntu-ruby-rvm-rails-and-you
Consider going through and making sure your sqlite3 libraries are installed. It looks as though you may be missing the required dependencies to build your gem. In this case you might try running this before installing your gem:
sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-dev
Also, try
rails --version
instead.
