trouble with gem

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

F:\Ruby192\bin>.\gem install ap
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno::ENOENT)
No such file or directory - C:/
This is strange, as there is no C: disk on my machine. This C: must
come from somewhere ....
Any idea ?

Hello,
When reporting issues related to RubyGems please provide the complete
output of "gem env" command.
Also, why are you invoking .\gem, is not Ruby in your PATH?. Roger
Pack reported issues about that in the past associated with stub
scripts (gem.bat)
Please add to your PATH and try again.

Well, you can install RubyInstaller 1.9.2 along with 1.9.1 into
separate directories and not having them in the PATH. You can also use
Pik to switch versions.

can you run gem install ap --debug -V ?
Dunno what is invoking C:/ as hardcoded, but Ruby 1.9.2 for sure is
not, at least no reference by gem env which could lead to that.

Changing this C: in F: works !
Thanks for the tip ! And thanks for the amazing installer !

The issue seems that your system lacks either HOME, HOMEDRIVE +
HOMEPATH or USERPROFILE folders needed by RubyGems.
If you do this in a terminal:
ruby -ve "puts File.expand_path('~')"
What is your output?
Ruby 1.9.2 should handle that properly, and if not, then we need to
take a look to what is the content (set) of the above mentioned
variables.
Please post that and if we see is a problem, we will report back to Ruby-Core.
Thank you.

That might be the problem. How you setup HOME without the HOMEDRIVE?
Normally I setup HOME as:
SET HOME=%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%
That is what expects.
Because you don't specified the drive letter, it fails and that is why
RubyGems defaults to C:/

See above, removing HOME (set HOME=) will let it resolve properly.
