Segmentation fault with Rails after upgrading to OS Sierra, possibly related to sqlite3 gem

Question

After upgrading to OSX Sierra I am having an issue with random segmentation faults. It most commonly occurs when running rails test and I believe it is due to the sqlite3_ad

Answer 1

I faced the same issue, I upgraded sqlite3 gem to 1.3.12 and it helped

Answer 2

All the previous solutions didn't worked so I've fixed this way:

gem uninstall sqlite3

brew install sqlite3

gem install sqlite3 -- --with-sqlite3-include=/usr/local/Cellar/sqlite/3.15.2/include --with-sqlite3-lib=/usr/local/Cellar/sqlite/3.15.2/lib

(Check the version you have in Cellar)

This is a temporary fix and probably if update the bundle it will stop working and you will do it again but al least I can work on my machine

Answer 3

Same problem w/Sierra. None of the stuff on this page worked for me, i.e. gem pristine sqlite3, xcode-select --install, sqlite3; gem uninstall sqlite3; bundle update. I eventually completely uninstalled the Ruby version with rbenv uninstall 2.3.1, then reinstalled it. This worked. I have no idea why.

Answer 4

Looks like a patch has been issued! The patch will look for sqlite3 in your brew folder instead of using Apple's supplied version by default. Simply run:

bundle update

to get the latest version of sqlite3-ruby and if you don't already have sqlite3 installed in your homebrew directory, run:

brew install sqlite3

Answer 5

I had the same problem when upgrading to Sierra. A simple bundle update will do the trick! Hope this helps.

Answer 6

Try rebuilding the sqlite3 gem. It has native extensions, and recompiling them in the Sierra environment may fix the issue.

Run:

gem pristine sqlite3

Which should give output like:

Restoring gems to pristine condition...
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
Restored sqlite3-1.3.10
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
Restored sqlite3-1.3.11
