Hi - i''ve not done much with gems and am struggling with this one. (rubygems.org seems to be down) I''ve installed imagemagick with ruby script/plugin install http://opensvn.csie.org/rails_imagemagick_tag/imagemagick_tag/ That seemed to go ok - it looked like it was adding a few files somewhere anyway. Then, i tried to install the rmagick gem with C:\code\InstantRails\rails_apps\newspipe>gem install --remote rmagick It thinks for a while and then gives me this: Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::Installer::ExtensionBuildError) ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. ruby gem_extconf.rb install rmagick sh configure gem_extconf.rb:38: undefined method `exitstatus'' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) Gem files will remain installed in C:/code/InstantRails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rmagick-1.15.8 for inspection. Results logged to C:/code/InstantRails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rmagick-1.15.8/gem_make.out Does anyone know what i''m doing wrong? Is this the right way to add a gem to my app? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

You can''t build the newest version of rmagick on Windows. You need to download the win32 gem from Rubyforge. It''s an older version, they seem to have lost their Win32 maintainer.
