From: Tim Ss Date: 2010-08-27T00:41:43+09:00 Subject: gem install RedCloth I am just learning Ruby and have become somewhat frustrated on this issue. I am trying to install Redcloth and I keep getting an error back C:\>gem install RedCloth Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: Error installing RedCloth: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. C:/Ruby186/bin/ruby.exe extconf.rb creating Makefile make 'make' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Gem files will remain installed in C:/Ruby186/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/RedCloth-4. 2.3 for inspection. Results logged to C:/Ruby186/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/RedCloth-4.2.3/ext/redcloth_ scan/gem_make.out I installed Ruby 1.8.6-p398 and downloaded gems 1.3.7 and installed that. This is on Win 7 if it makes any difference. I am following a Ruby book. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
