Subject: [ruby-core:63147] [ruby-trunk - Bug #9936] wrong zlib1.dll	installed on windows

Issue #9936 has been updated by Luis Lavena.


Hello Claudio,

Me again, once last thing I forgot to mention.

The error message you see: "%1 is not a valid Win32 application." might be associated with something else.

Please take a look to our troubleshooting page:

https://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller/wiki/Troubleshooting#fraps_violation

Perhaps you're affected by it or Detours being installed in your system.

Hope that helps.

----------------------------------------
I'm using Windows 7 64bit.

Running e.g. "gem help commands" results in the following error messages:

~~~

Seems zlib.so depends on zlib1.dll, but the zlib1.dll delivered using the installer is a 32bit instead of 64bit DLL causing the errors.

Replacing the zlib1.dll in the bin/ folder with a proper 64bit version makes the "gem help commands" succeed.
