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:
    ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

我怎么解决这个问题?


当前回答

在FreeBSD(9.1)上,必要的包是/usr/ports/database/postgresql-server*,安装时也会安装所需的头文件,使gem安装“pg”失败。这里的答案帮助我找到解决方案,但包名的差异需要进行一些搜索。

希望这能帮助人们在FreeBSD系统上搜索“-dev”包时避免一点挠头!

其他回答

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

我最终解决了这个问题,但没有使用前面描述的方法。

使用brew install postgresql,我发现它已经安装了,但没有链接。

找出PostgreSQL安装的位置,并删除它, 然后再次安装postgresql, 酿造链接postgresql Gem install pg

对于CentOS 6.4,

yum install postgresql-devel
gem install pg

工作得很好!

我在使用Postgresql 9.6时遇到了这个问题。我可以通过这样做来修复它:

brew upgrade postgresql@9.6
brew link postgresql@9.6 --force
gem install pg

在OS X和MacPorts上,PostgreSQL不再需要-devel包。安装pg gem的步骤如下:

~ > sudo port install postgresql-devel
...
Error: postgresql-devel has been replaced by postgresql91; please install that port instead
~ > gem install pg -v '0.17.1' -- --with-pg-config=/opt/local/lib/postgresql95/bin/pg_config
