Cucumber gem install

Testing RSpec

Hi,

I am having problem with the cucumber gem install

gem sources --add http://gems.github.com/
gem install aslakhellesoy-cucumber

=>

C:>gem install aslakhellesoy-cucumber
ERROR: While executing gem … (Errno::ENOENT)
No such file or directory -
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/aslakhellesoy-cucumber-0.1.5/bin/cucumber

I have created the folder manually, but I am getting a permissions
denied error

ERROR: While executing gem … (Errno::EACCES)
Permission denied -
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/aslakhellesoy-cucumber-0.1.5/bin/cucumber

I am allowed to write to the folder myself. Has anyone had the same
problem? I have set the company proxy.

I am on Windows Server 2003

Cheers

Aidy

Several people have reported it. I’m investigating. Seems like a
Github problem actually.

Please get it with Git and build the gem yourself in the meanwhile.

For anyone who’s not sure about how to do that:

git clone git://github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber.git
cd cucumber
rake gem
rake install_gem

I tried that, but not getting anywhere with installing Cucumber, I
think
I’ll wait till the gem is sorted out.

I feel your pain: Windows does not make this stuff too easy, and most
people playing with these tools are using *nix variants so you don’t
get much support.

I just wrote a really basic but gentle tutorial on getting git up and
running on Windows:

Github’s docs have a guide for Windows users:

newbies

Good luck!
