我使用的是Ruby on Rails 3.1预版本。我喜欢使用PostgreSQL,但问题是安装pg gem。它给了我以下错误:

$ gem install pg
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing pg:

我怎么解决这个问题?


当前回答

我也尝试过做gem安装libpq-dev,但我收到了这个错误:

Can't find the 'libpq-fe.h header
*** extconf.rb failed ***

然而,我发现使用sudo apt-get(我尽量避免在Ruby on Rails中使用)安装是有效的,即。

sudo apt-get install libpq-dev
# or
apt-get install postgres-server-dev-{pg.version}
# for postgresql 9.4 on Ubuntu 14.04

然后我就能做了

gem install pg

没有问题。

其他回答

在macOS(以前的Mac OS X和OS X)上,使用Homebrew安装正确的头文件:

brew install postgresql

然后运行

gem install pg

应该工作。

或者,不安装整个postgresql,你可以酿造安装libpq并导出正确的PATH和PKG_CONFIG_PATH,如“警告”部分所述

只有卸载(sudo apt-get purge) libpq-dev并重新安装它才对我有用。

对于Mac OS X,只需安装https://postgresapp.com/,并遵循命令行部分和ruby的步骤

sudo mkdir -p /etc/paths.d &&
echo /Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/latest/bin | sudo tee /etc/paths.d/postgresapp

然后

sudo ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" gem install pg

在Fedora 32上,我通过专门安装libpq5-devel解决了同样的问题。

如果你从官方存储库安装postgresql,你会有几个版本都不能解决这个问题,所以这真的是一个尝试它需要哪个版本的问题。

郑重声明:

Ruby on Rails 4应用程序在OS X与PostgresApp(在这种情况下需要0.17.1版本-有点老项目):

gem install pg -v '0.17.1' -- --with-pg-config=/Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/9.3/bin/pg_config
