Pgsql gem install encoding error

Rails
1

Hi everyone,

I am trying to install pgsql gem, but I have some strange encoding issue
when trying to install. Whole app have just been migrated (mv) from
windows environment to Linux environment, but only default gemfile was
used. I have found that way to solve is to change locale in registry.rb,
but as I mentioned, my environment is Linux. Gist of gem_make.out can be
viewed here: gem_make.out · GitHub

postgresql is installed and runing:

$ service postgresql status
9.3/main (port 5432): online

EDIT: Seems that this issue is only happening with pgsql gem, other gems
are installing sucessfuly, for example, running $ gem install A_123
installs specified gem successfully.

OS: Linux alan-desktop 3.16.0-45-generic #60~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul
24 21:16:23 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Lin

Rails version: Rails 4.2.1

Ruby version: ruby 2.2.2p95 (2015-04-13 revision 50295) [x86_64-linux]

Thanks in advance,

Hi, Are you using git? Is everything committed? do you have
the postgresql-common and the
libpq-dev

I got some similar problem but due to git.

Hope it helps! :slight_smile:

Is there a reason you’re trying to install pgsql rather than the more
common pg gem? It doesn’t look like pgsql has been updated in some time.

Hi, Julio,

According to similar question on SO it seems that installing ruby-dev
headers for compiling extension modules did the trick.

sudo apt-get install ruby-dev && sudo gem install pg
