An error occurred while installing nokogiri (1.6.6.2)

[negash]

I am trying to run bundle package on Mac os x, and I am getting an error
" An error occurred while installing nokogiri (1.6.6.2), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that gem install nokogiri -v '1.6.6.2' succeeds before bundling. "

I try gem install nokogiri also gem install nokogiri -v 1.6.6.2

nokogiri not installing

Have you tried some of the suggestions in this issue? #1231

@negash Do me a favor. Download the latest version of Tokaido here.

After installation. Click 'Open In Terminal' and run:

gem uninstall nokogiri

Try installing it now on that same session you opened from Tokaido. If it works on your machine, then there is a high probability that most build failures people face when installing Nokogiri on OS X is not libxml nor libxslt, but missing the iconv header files #1214 (which Tokaido adds them for you)

i have a perfectly valid libiconv installed on my mac in /usr/local, but this line makes it impossible for me to install the gem without monkeying around:

https://github.com/sparklemotion/nokogiri/blob/master/ext/nokogiri/extconf.rb#L453

--with-iconv-dir is no help in this case. 😢

on purpose? something else i can try? happy to help if there's anything i can do.

We made updates in 1.6.7 that should address libiconv issues. If you're still having a problem, please comment here and I'll reopen.

I am using Mojave (10.14.5) , and had to do a clean install which broke things.
I ran this:
open /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg

and it worked.

@toopher503 you're commenting on an unrelated issue that was closed over three years ago.

It sounds like your issue might be related to #1801 fixed with #1851 and released in v1.10.1 on 2019-01-13. Please upgrade to at least that version and if it doesn't work for you, open a new issue. Thanks.
