I try to install the webkit driver for capybara on Windows and I get the following error:
$ gem install capybara-webkit-0.12.1.gem Temporarily enhancing PATH to include DevKit... Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: Error installing capybara-webkit-0.12.1.gem: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. c:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/bin/ruby.exe extconf.rb Gem files will remain installed in c:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/capybara-webkit-0.12.1 for inspection. Results logged to c:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/capybara-webkit-0.12.1/./gem_make.out
And here’s what in the log file:
C:\>cat c:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/capybara-webkit-0.12.1/./gem_make.out c:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/bin/ruby.exe extconf.rb
I have been trying for some time to find out what the problem is. The log file is not very useful, and the solutions for similar problems that I found were either Unix specific or did not work for me. I would appreciate any help you can give me.
Note. This question has been referred to the capybara-webkit google group.
Update: I tried to build the gem manually according to the recommendation of Joe Ferris on the capybara-webkit Google Group , and I was able to get more detailed information about what leads to a build failure. Here is the message I get when I run bundle exec rake build in the capybara-webkit directory:
