SUBJECT: RE: installing rjb on windows

 

Hi arton;

Me again.

As you requested, I set up another machine with Ruby 1.87. It has taken a couple of days trying to get all the gems to now match-up.

I installed the rjb-1.3.4-x86-mswin32-60 gem that you compiled for me.

I ran a test. Good news is that I no longer get the system error. But I do get a funky error in the server log:

Gem::LoadError (RubyGem version error: rjb(1.3.0 not >= 0)

In upgrading to the new gems, my gem version is now 1.6.2.

*** OK, I may have gotten that fixed -- downgraded ruby gems to 1.5.3. [**I'm leaving the above comments in this message because I don't know if it has impacted my system and causing that below.**]

Now I'm back to the same old "can't create Java VM" runtime error.

On this new machine, JAVA_HOME = c:\Java\jdk1.6.0_24
But the jvm.dll is in: C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_24\jre\bin|client.

Path includes both "C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_24\bin" and "C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_24\jre\bin".

This is still a Windows XP machine. I have not installed MinGW on it yet (since I could never get it to compile your gem on the old machine anyway).

In googling, I've have read a lot where developers have gotten your gem to run on XP and I have also read some posts saying you had to have MS VC++ 6.0 installed. Does your "make" specifically require MinGW. If I load a different C++ compiler will your "make" work with it?

Please just point me in the right direction.

thanks again
