Can't get win32console gem working properly

[Davi Vidal]

Hi all. I must use Windows for a days and I am trying to use
win32console gem. I've installed it successful and can see it at
C:\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems, but can't use it with require():

> irb
irb(main):001:0> require 'rubygems'
=> false
irb(main):002:0> require 'Win32/Console/ANSI'
LoadError: no such file to load -- Win32/Console/ANSI
from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in

What am I doing wrong?

Hi everybody,

I figured out, what the problem was:

Just renamed the path in the gems dir:


win32console-1.0.8-x86-mswin32
to
win32console-1.0.8-i386-mswin32

then it works for me.

This worked for me, too. Thanks, Rafael.

Not sure, but it may be a problem with rubygems v0.9.5.

seems to be quite a few problems with rubygems V0.9.5 I downgraded to
V0.9.4 and everything started working properly again.

If for some reason you have the folder "win32console-1.0.8-x86-
mswin32", renaming it to "win32console-1.0.8-i386-mswin32" may fix it.
