I tried to install Ruby 1.87 still get the same error. I installed some dev kits as suggested by some posts. No luck. Any idea how I can get this to work please? Hello Grace, Please provide the full information of your Ruby installation as information about where you got it, where was installed, etc. Also, provide the exact error message, copy and paste directly. From what I can read seems you're running Windows, RubyInstaller 1.9.2 and supposed to have DevKit installer. If that is the case, please follow the installation instructions: http://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller/wiki/Development-Kit And read some tutorials about it: http://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller/wiki/Tutorials Most of the time there is something affecting your environment, but for that we need the precise information. Help us help you. PS: When posting, try to give more space to paragraphs and sentences, helps a lot with readability. -- Luis Lavena
