cannot load such file -- 1.9/bcrypt_ext (LoadError)

Question

Hey I get the following Error when i try to start the rails server

Any ideas? At the moment no possible solution worked...

By the way I run Windows 8... might be the problem at all :D

This morning, I'm facing the same issue too (Windows 7). Let me recommend to have a look here https://github.com/codahale/bcrypt-ruby/issues/72

I successfully fix my problem like this (updating my Gemfile):

gem 'bcrypt-ruby', '3.1.1.rc1', :require => 'bcrypt'
