Re: [vagrant-up] vagrant-aws install errors on Mac

[Cassiano Leal]

I've just tried it now and it compiles without a problem here. Do you have the latest XCode installed?

I'm a bit new to vagrant and very thin on Ruby experience.  I've been trying to add the vagrant-aws plugin to vagrant on a mac and get the following error:

$ vagrant plugin install vagrant-aws
Installing the 'vagrant-aws' plugin. This can take a few minutes...
/Applications/Vagrant/embedded/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/installer.rb:562:in `rescue in block in build_extensions': ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. (Gem::Installer::ExtensionBuildError)

Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of
necessary libraries and/or headers.  Check the mkmf.log file for more
details.  You may need configuration options.

It appears that this is an error related to a missing ruby development environment.  Do I have to get external resources outside of the vagrant project to enable this plugin ?

Thanks for any help.

I do not, but that is easy enough to do.

Same error with Xcode installed.

[Cassiano Leal]

Install XCode's command line tools:

Open XCode -> Preferences -> Downloads -> Components -> Command Line Tools -> press "Install"

If that doesn't work, try to find the mkmf.log file mentioned in the error. That might give you more clues.

Worked !  Thank you !

You're welcome. Always go this route before anything else when compiling things under OS X. :)
