gem install nokogiri -v '1.6.8.1' fails

Greg picture Greg · Oct 8, 2016 · Viewed 9.9k times · Source

Building a new Rails app and getting a problem with nokogiri. Said to try gem install nokogiri -v '1.6.8.1' which fails with output below. I tried deleting Gemfile.lock and using the Gemfile from another app which has no problem—bundle install still fails. The original failure is bundle install which continues to work in other apps.

From console:

gem install nokogiri -v '1.6.8.1'

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

Building Nokogiri with a packaged version of libxml2-2.9.4.

Team Nokogiri will keep on doing their best to provide security
updates in a timely manner, but if this is a concern for you and want
to use the system library instead; abort this installation process and
reinstall nokogiri as follows:

    gem install nokogiri -- --use-system-libraries
        [--with-xml2-config=/path/to/xml2-config]
        [--with-xslt-config=/path/to/xslt-config]

If you are using Bundler, tell it to use the option:

    bundle config build.nokogiri --use-system-libraries
    bundle install

Note, however, that nokogiri is not fully compatible with arbitrary
versions of libxml2 provided by OS/package vendors.

Run this first:

xcode-select --install

Then rerun your bundle install
