Hello, when is the railsInstaller going to be updated along with the current Ruby version which is 2.6.4. I had projects done with ruby 2.6.4 version and I cannot run them on windows as there is no way to install railsinstaller with the current ruby version. I have tried several options in installing the current ruby and then rails. but I am faced with problems specifically this:

ERROR: Error installing rails:

ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

current directory: C:/tools/ruby26/lib/ruby/gems/2.6.0/gems/nio4r-2.5.1/ext/nio4r

Gem files will remain installed in C:/tools/ruby26/lib/ruby/gems/2.6.0/gems/nio4r-2.5.1 for inspection.

Results logged to C:/tools/ruby26/lib/ruby/gems/2.6.0/extensions/x64-mingw32/2.6.0/nio4r-2.5.1/gem_make.out

Any idea to fix this will be appreciated.

Best advice i can give is to setup your computer for dual boot. I had many of the same problems with windows. Have been happy dual boot ubuntu.

Thanks Darrell. Been thinking of that too. I was hoping I won't have to do that.

Another option is a virtual machine. Instead of dual boot. I use virtualbox, but other options available too.
