gem install libv8 --version '3.11.8.17' on ruby (windows)

Solution 1:

Try this:

gem install libv8 -v '3.11.8.17' -- --with-system-v8

This error was a pain untill I run the above command :)

Solution 2:

Try with https://github.com/eakmotion/therubyracer_for_windows. I had solved same problem on my windows machine using this solution.

Solution 3:

Follow these steps:

1. Get suitable Python from here http://python.org/download/
2. Set path with this command SET PATH=<ruby directory>;<python directory> (e.g. SET PATH=C:\Ruby192\bin;C:\Python27)

And now install your desire gem

gem install libv8

Got this solution from here.

I wonder if you are getting this error for version. Try this:

gem install libv8 --version 3.11.8.0
