Cant install Heroku gem in Snow Leopard

[Brian Scott]

Hello,

I cant seem to get Heroku gem installed in Snow Leopard. I am running
Ruby 1.9.1 and RubyGems 1.3.5. Any ideas will help.

Thank You

did you install xcode?

did you install xcode?

Yes I did

I used this article but for Ruby 1.9.1
http://hivelogic.com/articles/compiling-ruby-rubygems-and-rails-on-snow-leopard/


I went back and re installed Ruby 1.8.7 over 1.9.1 and it seemed to fix
my problem but I wonder why I cant compile Heroku gem with 1.9.1?

Searching the Heroku docs, or the heroku blog didn't unearth anything
about the required Ruby version.

The only thing I could find was this:
http://support.heroku.com/forums/42310/entries/54329 which asks for Ruby
1.9 support, but no reply from Heroku themselves.

So, seems like you are stuck with 1.8.x for the moment.

You may try this approach:

gem install --ignore-dependencies heroku =20
gem install json_pure

You cannot install heroku because it depends on json gem, and by default =
non pure json gem gets installed and compilation fails. But if you =
manually install pure json gem it should work. At least it works for me, =
but my steps were a bit different:

gem install heroku
#find and delete json gem installed incompletely
gem install json_pure
gem install --ignore-dependencies heroku =20

You should not have had to reinstall 1.8.7. Hivelogic's tutorial
doesn't touch Apple's Ruby -- which is already 1.8.7.

Best,
