Rails Installing libxml2 on Windows

问题

When I run bundle install, I get the following error:

Using activeresource (3.0.3)
Installing libxml-ruby (1.1.4) with native extensions C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.8.7/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/installer.rb:529:in `build_extensions': ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. (

    C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.8.7/bin/ruby.exe extconf.rb

Install the library or try one of the following options to extconf.rb:

  --with-xml2-config=/path/to/xml2-config
  --with-xml2-dir=/path/to/libxml2
  --with-xml2-lib=/path/to/libxml2/lib
  --with-xml2-include=/path/to/libxml2/include

I understand what's missing, but I don't understand how to resolve this. Thanks in advance.

I had a similar issue on windows and the following command worked.

gem install libxml-ruby -- --with-xml2-include=C:\ruby-1.9.2\include\libxml2

However, note that for this to work, you should already have the libxml2 assemblies in the path specified and don't use a path with spaces or within quotes.

I tried running Rails on Windows too and remember having this issue but don't remember what I did, but a quick Google search found this link: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/libxml2.htm

Tells you how to download libxml2 for Windows.
