I downloaded the latest toolbelt for Windows; however, when I try to launch any heroku command from DOS I get:
c:/Program Files/Heroku/lib/heroku/updater.rb:126:in fork': fork() function is unimplemented on this machine (NotImplementedError)
from c:/Program Files/Heroku/lib/heroku/updater.rb:126:inbackground_update!'
from c:/Program Files/Heroku/lib/heroku/updater.rb:111:in inject_libpath'
from c:/Program Files/Heroku/bin/heroku:19:in'
My purpose is to deploy a Play! app on heroku. I'm using Windows XP SP3. Anybody to enlighten me because I'm having headache.
I just ran into the same problem. My solution was to comment out the call to fork.
Navigate to your Heroku installation directory, and find the file updater.rb in the subdirectory lib\heroku.
Comment out lines 126 (should be pid = fork do), 143 (end) and 144 (Process.detach.pid).
That should do the trick.
In your home directory (i.e. C:/Users/xxx/.heroku/autoupdate.last) create a file called "autoupdate.last".
See updater.rb:
File.join(Heroku::Helpers.home_directory, ".heroku", "autoupdate.last")
I have a co-worker on Windows 7 who had this problem. He accidentally installed ruby 1.8.7. This error seems to occur when you are using ruby 1.8.7 with a current version of the Heroku Toolbelt (2.32.9 at this writing). Heroku Toolbelt seems to prefer Ruby 1.9.x. You can run gem install heroku, and the error goes away, but you will get warnings about the heroku gem being deprecated which means it will probably be missing current features. Update to ruby 1.9.x if you can. While valid in some cases, editing ruby files should be a last resort in my opinion.
I'm not sure which of these fixed issue, but one or both of them did:
1. Deselected "hidden" Users/[user]/.heroku" folder.
2. Deselected "read" only for folder.

I'm building a simple web app on Sinatra that I can deploy like a gem to artifactory; to start with I'm getting everything setup.
Here's what I've done:
I've got the the gemspec done so I can deploy like a gem
I've got sinatra modular set up with a basic 'hello world' page
I've got Rspec setup for testing (hello world test passes)
I've got rake tasks to make things easier (booting up sinatra, building the gem, running tests, etc)
Now I need to move Sinatra from Webrick to somthing a bit more robust and that's this is where I'm hitting a wall.
I've tried Unicorn,thin and Puma but they all won't install and I don't know what to do.
They all fail at Building Native extensions, I don't know what to do.
I'm using windows 8.1 (i'd rather be doing this on ubuntu but the company uses windows and to be honest I like a challenge) ruby 2.1 and I have devkit installed (and it's working now, wouldn't last night).
From what I've read Unicorn won't work on windows so the best bet is to go with thin but that fails with: extconf.rb
checking for main() in -lc... *** extconf.rb failed ***
It mentions that I need the devkit installed (it is the first line is Temporarily enhancing PATH to include DevKit...)
Despite this it fails, I tried doing what I found in this but that didn't help ( Installing event machine didn't do anything).
I'm at a loss of what to do next.
EDIT:
Whilst I've solved the problem of getting Thin to install it now has a differant error
IT can't load eventmachine.
EDIT:
It all comes down to the fact that the Devkit wasn't being recognised or it didn't install properly or something. I wonder why.
I've tried Unicorn,thin and Puma but they all won't install and I don't know what to do. They all fail at Building Native extensions, I don't know what to do.
The reason these are failing is that many ruby gems use native C extensions which expect to be compiled and installed on a linux or unix environment.
Doing any sort of Ruby development work on a Windows machine is an exercise in sadomasochism.
I strongly recommend you install VirtualBox, download an Ubuntu or similar linux virtual machine image, boot it, configure it, and use it as your development webserver. You can continue to edit your code in windows, but you will be running it in a sane environment.
Ultimately, you may have to learn some new skills, but you will save yourself an enormous amount of frustration by moving off windows as your development platform.
I managed to get thin installed but it wasn't easy
I wiped every bit of ruby from my machine, including all references in the registry, got rid of pik as well.
I then followed these steps (that I worked out along with an answer from another question) and it now works
install rubyinstaller 2.1.3
install devkit
gem install thin --platform=[win64]
notepad C:\Ruby21-x64\lib\ruby\gems\2.1.0\gems\eventmachine-1.0.3\ext\project.h #append line 97 with //
cd C:\Ruby21-x64\lib\ruby\gems\2.1.0\gems\eventmachine-1.0.3
gem build eventmachine.gemspec
move eventmachine-1.0.3.gem up one directory
cd ..
gem install eventmachine-1.0.3.gem
del the gemfile
cd
gem install thin --platform=[win64]
A bit of a job BUT it worked,
The answer in question isthis one.
specifically
2) edited the file:
c:\Ruby21-x64\lib\ruby\gems\2.0.0\gems\eventmachine-1.0.3\ext\project.h
and commented the line 97
//typedef int pid_t; for a more robust correction, checkout the
solution here
https://github.com/eventmachine/eventmachine/pull/450/files
3) then, i've opened command prompt, and went to the gem folder
c:\Ruby21-x64\lib\ruby\gems\2.0.0\gems\eventmachine-1.0.3 and run:
gem build eventmachine.gemspec
In the end, after hammering my head against a wall, on a suggestion I installed chef-client and using the embedded ruby allowed it to work, that said it only uses ruby 1.9.3 but it works so for now it will have to do.
I'm trying to get Jekyll running on Windows 8 x64, using this manual:
Running Jekyll on Windows
I'm using the following two downloads from rubyinstaller.org:
Ruby 2.0.0-p0 (x64)
DevKit-mingw64-64-4.7.2-20130224-1432-sfx.exe
So I set up both Ruby and the DevKit according to the manual (expect it's newer versions). I tried running a little Hello World .rb script and it's working fine, path variables are set.
I then try to run gem install jekyll and I get the following output:
gem install jekyll - output on pastebin.com
The problem seems to be with the gem called fast-stemmer-1.0.2.gem, or so it seems.
Unfortunately I have practically zero experience with Ruby or Jekyll and have no idea what is going on here. Could someone please take a look at the output and send me into the right direction?
Thanks
Have you tried uninstall Ruby/DevKit and try the whole thing again, but this time, install Ruby to the default directory like C:\Ruby200-x64 instead of C:/Program Files/Ruby/Ruby200-x64
As I suspect the space in your ruby directory could be the issue. (Line 296 of your error txt)
/usr/bin/install: target
`Files/Ruby/Ruby200-x64/lib/ruby/gems/2.0.0/gems/fast-stemmer-1.0.2/lib'
is not a directory make: *** [install-so] Error 1
Also quote from Issues installing Ruby and Rails and DevKit on windows 7 x64 - fix needed
Seems you installed Ruby (along the DevKit?) inside a directory with
spaces.
As indicated during Ruby own installer, path with spaces are not
recommended (that is why default is C:\Ruby193
GCC, the compiler that is part of DevKit, has problems with path with
spaces, so installation of DevKit is also recommended to be placed in
a path without spaces (e.g. C:\DevKit)
I am attempting to work locally on a PHP application which I cloned from the Git repository my partner and I use.
He uses a Mac, and until now I have been working on the app in a virtual Ubuntu Linux environment. Both environments have been able to use Compass polling with the same file structure and files.
On Windows 7, I run Compass commands from Cygwin, and this is the command I use to have Compass poll from the root directory of the app (C:/wamp/www/application):
compass watch --trace src/Application/ApplicationBundle/Resources/compass/
When I then make a change to a .scss file, I receive the following error:

All I've been able to find through searching is that it may have something to do with the fact that Windows capitalizes its drive names, although the lack of slashes in the returned path makes me think the problem may be elsewhere.
Does anyone know why I might receive this error in Windows, but not other platforms?
NOTE: I have found a work-around involving installing ruby (and compass) through Windows' command prompt rather than Cygwin, and that should work fine for now. Still, if anyone has ideas, I'm still curious as to what the problem could be.
According to this commit, this is a problem caused by a compass dependency called FSSM. It is used to monitor file changes in compass. A workaround is described in this comment.
It seems that FSSM detects that ruby is running inside a Windows box, and treats paths in the Windows' way (C:\blabla). Commenting out the line 26 of the file <fssm_gem_path>/lib/fssm/pathname.rb makes compass watch work as expected. You can also add
unless path[0, 1] == File::SEPARATOR
to the end of line 26 to make it work.
I thought I'd just provide a little more info to help people find the pathname.rb file.
On the cygwin prompt type:
gem env
This (unsurprisingly) brings up a load of info about your Ruby Gems installtion. Look for the line which specifies the INSTALLATION DIRECTORY. Mine was:
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8
Now in Windows Explorer navigate to this location but substitute "usr" for your cygwin installation directory. Therefore the above path becomes:
C:\cygwin\lib\ruby\gems\1.8
Once in this location drill down until you come across the fssm gem directory.
Within this [fssm] directory go into:
/lib/fssm/
...and there you should find the pathname.rb file.
Edit it as above and all is well. I hope this helps.
See here for a possible fix:
http://rails.webintellix.com/2010/05/27/error-in-ruby-relative_path_from-call-on-windows/
I was running into this same error with a slightly different setup. My project folder was on a network drive (ruby and sass/compass installed locally), and every time I made a change to a .scss file compass watch would crash with similar errors to the OP. I solved the issue by mapping my network drive instead of accessing it directly via the network (right clicked on My Computer and choose map network drive so I could access my remote drive at A:).
Now, instead of doing 'compass watch //SERVERNAME/My_Project' (I'm using Git Bash), I do 'compass watch a/My_Project' and compass stopped crashing.
Hope that helps someone else.
Using Cygwin, re install a compass dev release (such as 0.13+). Works for me with Compass 0.13.alpha.4 (Markab)
To do so:
gem uninstall compass
gem install compass --pre --no-rdoc --no-ri
I am trying to install the curb gem, which is libcurl bindings for Ruby, and of course I need to have "A working (lib)curl installation, with development stuff" installed on my computer. So, I went to the cURL Download Wizard and downloaded this package.
But adding the bin into my PATH does not produce improvement and I still get an error when I try to install the curb gem, such as:
extconf.rb:19: Can't find libcurl or curl/curl.h
(RuntimeError)
Even though, curl is already in the PATH.
EDIT: I also tried raking the gem, as per the instructions. It fails saying "make failed" and throwing a bunch of errors like this:
C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/curb-0.7.7.1/ext/curb_postfield.c:76:
undefined reference to
`_imp__curl_formadd'
Execute Below command for windows only and its works
gem install curb --platform=mswin32
I realise this is a very old question, but I had this exact problem today and found the instructions on someone else's site. These worked for me so I thought I would share them since people with this issue are most likely to come across StackOverflow first: http://jes.al/2012/10/installing-curb-gem-on-windows-7/
In a nutshell:
Get the 32-bit development version of curl (see my notes below)
Add the curl bin directory to your PATH
Run the following command (replacing the paths to curl as necessary)
gem install curb --platform=ruby -- -- --with-curl-lib="C:/curl-7.27.0-devel-mingw32/bin" --with-curl-include="C:/curl-7.27.0-devel-mingw32/include"
A couple of personal notes:
Even though I am on 64-bit Windows 7, I had to download the 32-bit libcurl version under "Win32 - Generic", identified as "Win32 2000/XP zip".
I got the error c:/Ruby193/lib/ruby/1.9.1/mkmf.rb:246:in 'initialize': Permission denied - mkmftmp1.log (Errno::EACCES) while installing the gem. This rather messed up page here suggested that it might be a problem with my anti-virus, and that just retrying a couple of times might work, and indeed, it did.
I am trying to set up Ruby on Rails on windows. I am using the Flash Rails distribution that looks pretty good, but there is an issue with sqlite3. I found the threads telling me to install version 1.2.3, which installed fine. I'm using ruby 1.9.0, and every time I try and run a script (e.g. rake db:create) that uses the database I get an error message "no driver for sqlite3 found".
This apparently is a missing sqlite3.dll, but I have the dll in my %PATH%, and I have also tried copying it into the directory where I am running the script from, the directory where the sqlite3 ruby code lives.
Does anyone have any ideas? If possible I want all teh ruby stuff to be self contained so I can use it from a pen drive.
EDIT: To clarify, I already used gem install to install the ruby-sqlite3 gem - it is just non functional as it cannot find the sqlite3.dll (even though it is actually present in a directory on my %PATH%)
EDIT PART 2: After doing some more digging, the problem appears that ruby will not load the sqlite3_api.dll. I have copied it all over my filesystem, I just get a failure to read file. Other dll libraries in the same directory (e.g. zlib.dll) work fine!
I tried installing the dlls into system32, and that did not work either.
The problem put simply is that sqlite3-ruby 1.2.3 is not compatible with ruby 1.9. This is caused because ruby 1.9 does not use .dll files for c libraries it uses .so files instead. Additionally, since sqlite3_api.dll is written against msvcrt-ruby18.dll. This means that it specifically only will support ruby 1.8.*.
The good news is that there is a fat binary version that will support both ruby 1.8 and ruby 1.9. Uninstalling all former versions of sqlite3-ruby and then installing this one. (You may have to manually delete some versions the gem after uninstalling.) in order to install it use
install sqlite3-ruby --source http://gems.rubyinstaller.org
for more information see this website
Try installing the sqlite3-ruby gem:
gem install sqlite3-ruby
Something similar happened to me recently so I thought I'd update my answer.
For reference there's a sqlite3_api.dll file located in the gem's lib directory. Also the sqlite3.dll file needs to be reachable on the path. They are different files, the first is required by the gem to interface Ruby to C code, while the second contains the actual Sqlite implementation.
It's best to get the second file from the sqlite website and extract it to the Ruby\bin directory (as you shouldn't manually put DLL's into the windows or windows\system directories any more).
So for reference "sqlite3_api.dll" needs to be in:
Ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\sqlite3-ruby-1.2.3-x86-mswin32\lib
and "sqlite3.dll" needs to be on the path, possibly in:
Ruby\bin
As for the "driver not found" problem I would suggest trying the easy things first and making sure gems is installed correctly, up to date, and that the RUBYLIB and PATH environment variables are set appropriately. (System restart may be required to propagate the changes fully.)
Re this link
Download sqlitedll-3_6_10.zip and extract into ruby/bin!
Try going to sqlite.org download page and get the zipped up dll. Then put that in your c:\windows\system32 folder, that should allow Ruby to find it.
Restart your machine after running install sqlite3-ruby
To clarify, which gem are you using? sqlite-ruby or sqlite3-ruby?
They're part of the same project, but different releases. The key is that sqlite3 appears to have driver code included.
I assume you're attempting to use the first, since it's giving me the same error. If so, try switching.
Also.. How literal do you mean by this?
but I have the dll in my %PATH%
PATH=...;C:\sqlite\sqlite3.dll
PATH=...;C:\sqlite
The first will attempt to find C:\sqlite\sqlite3.dll\sqlite3.dll, AFAIK.
I use Ruby 1.8.7 (works with 1.9.1 too)
OS is WindowsXP SP3
Go to
http://www.sqlite.org/download.html
and Download file
sqlitedll-3_7_0_1.zip (265.19 KiB)
and unzip then we will get
sqlite3.dll
Copy sqlite3.dll to your bin folder
as C:\Ruby191\bin or C:\Ruby187\bin
then it works
