Error While Installing Nokogiri (1.6.7) on El Capitan

Error while installing Nokogiri (1.6.7) on El Capitan

You should install xcode-select packages first, then try installing nokogiri again. Try these commands,

xcode-select --install

then try

gem install nokogiri

with whatever Nokogiri version you want.

Nokogiri depends on multiple libraries like libxslt, libxml and zlib. Dev versions (including source) of these should be installed before installing Nokogiri in any Linux distribution. For OS X, the above command should work I guess.

The actual solution is in the comments below.

Bundle install error installing nokogiri (1.6.7.2). Gem installs but not for rails app

I fixed it, but it may be an unsatisfying answer. I went through all of the advice, installed various dependencies, changed various settings. Nothing seemed to work. Then I deleted the project folder and pulled it again from Github, reinstalled rvm, ran bundle install again and it all worked normally.

So what was the one thing that I was missing? I can't be sure. But I can say if nothing else works, create a new folder and download the project again and run bundle install.. after installing all dependencies / tools first of course, found here -> https://nokogiri.org/tutorials/installing_nokogiri.html

Failing to install Nokogiri gem

This works like a charm!

gem install nokogiri -- --use-system-libraries=true --with-xml2-include=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk/usr/include/libxml2

Why does installing Nokogiri on Mac OS fail with libiconv is missing?

I had the same issue. Unfortunately the "Installing Nokogiri" doesn't cover Iconv issues. Here's how I resolved the issue.

First install homebrew, it'll make your life easier. If you already have it installed, be sure to grab the latest formulae by updating like so:

brew update

Note: In OSX 10.9+ you may need to install xCode command tools to allow you to install libiconv.

xcode-select --install

then install a newer version of libiconv

brew install libiconv

then install your gem

gem install nokogiri -- --with-iconv-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/libiconv/1.14

Nokogiri 'Failed to build gem native extension' when I run bundle install

Previous advises didn't help me, here is the solution for OS 10.9:

brew install libxml2
bundle config build.nokogiri "--use-system-libraries --with-xml2-include=/usr/local/opt/libxml2/include/libxml2"
bundle install
