I already follow the topic
Installing Ferret + acts_as_ferret on Windows Vista - Ferret - Ruby-Forum, but it is not working,
when I try to install act_as_ferret gem, I get this error msg:

$ gem install acts_as_ferret
Building native extensions. This could take a while…
ERROR: Error installing acts_as_ferret:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

.11.8.2 for inspection.

Does anybody has a clue on how to get out this problem?

Thanks,

ruby uses c++ based files and compiles them to work with some apis , i
think
is the case with ferret , so you you are missing some dependencies and
rubygems cant build/compile the c++ base part of the ferret library.
Read
the documentation on ferret to find out the dependencies your are
missing.
