我使用的是Ruby on Rails 3.1预版本。我喜欢使用PostgreSQL,但问题是安装pg gem。它给了我以下错误:

$ gem install pg
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing pg:
    ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

我怎么解决这个问题?


当前回答

对于alpine,请使用下面的方法来修复错误

apk add --no-cache postgresql-dev

其他回答

在macOS(以前的Mac OS X和OS X)上,使用Homebrew安装正确的头文件:

brew install postgresql

然后运行

gem install pg

应该工作。

或者,不安装整个postgresql,你可以酿造安装libpq并导出正确的PATH和PKG_CONFIG_PATH,如“警告”部分所述

我通过rvm重新安装Ruby修复了同样的错误:

rvm reinstall 1.9.3

我在Mac OS上也有同样的问题,但我在终端上使用以下方法轻松安装了PostgreSQL gem:

ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" gem install pg

(我先用brew install PostgreSQL安装PostgreSQL。)

在Debian 7.0, 64位(Wheezy)上,只需运行:

sudo apt-get install libpq-dev

成功安装libpq-dev后,运行:

bundle install

在我的情况下,它是包postgresql-server-dev-8.4(我使用的是Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal), 64位)。
