I''m not the best person to answer Windows questions. Haven''t used it for a good long while. (emphasis on the ''good'') But if you know the url for your proxy, you can set up gem to go through it Look here: http://docs.rubygems.org/read/chapter/13 in section 5.10 -sean Hari Natarajan wrote:> Hi > I am getting the following error when i tried to install rails in > windows using command prompt.... > > Attempting remote installation of ''rails'' > Updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org > ERROR: While executing gem ...

Hi,
I can''t seem to get gem to install rails on my machine :(. What I see
displayed is this: (after running
"gem install rails --include-dependencies"
==Upgrading installed gems..
Updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno::EINVAL)
Invalid argument
==
I''ve tried googling for answers and tried basically everything I could,
including disabling my firewall
and switching off my anti-virus, attaching "--http-proxy" to the
install command, and resetting my
winsock (via "netsh winsock reset"). Nothing seems to work :(. I
can''t even run "gem update"...
I''d really appreciate any help on this matter.
Thanks in advance!

Hi, In Windows, you can directly set the environment variables in the command prompt. Set the variables HTTP_PROXY, HTTP_PROXY_USER and HTTP_PROXY_PASS, and then execute "gem install rails --remote". This should make it work. Thanks!!!
