Hi guys, I have to update a Twiter account from my Rails application. So I am trying to install Twitter4R api. But I am getting error when i give following command: C:\>gem install twitter4r Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: Error installing twitter4r: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. c:/ruby/bin/ruby.exe extconf.rb install twitter4r creating Makefile nmake ''nmake'' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Gem files will remain installed in c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/json-1.1.3 for inspection. Results logged to c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/json-1.1.3/ext/json/ext/parser/ gem_make.out So, what could be the problem? Do I need to install some supporting gem file? Please help me. Thanks. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Hi, Unfortunately this isn''t the right group to post this query, but since I see similar questions about Twitter4R were previously asked on this group I will give an answer and CC the Twitter4R-Users Google Group (twitter4r-users). This following blog post talks about his issues with install JSON 1.1.3 (which is what Twitter4R gem install tries to do because it depends on the JSON gem): http://justindz.tumblr.com/post/63305648/the-battle-for-ruby-json-on-windows-vista The compilation error is on the JSON Ruby gem install not specifically the Twitter4R gem install. A workaround might be to install the JSON 1.1.1 version on Windows (which I believe works) or put cl.exe''s directory in your PATH environment variable.

This is a common problem on windows platform where development tools (compiler and linker) and libraries are not in the path.
