How to install Watir

susinthaa · #1 September 8th, 2008, 04:30 PM

Hi,

I am trying to install watir (ruby gem).
But I am getting the following error:

ERROR: While executing gem ... (RuntimeError)
Error instaling watir:
watir requires win32-process >= 0.5.5

Please help me to install the watir.

Thanks,
Susintha

It sounds like your win32-process is not supported by Watir. You might try the following:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
gem update --system 

gem install watir --include-dependencies

I have installed Ruby . I have admin rights but still after executing the command for installing the watir, i am getting error message...

gem update --system

Following Error message is getting displayed
Error : http://gems.rubyforge.org/ does not appear to be a repository
Error : while executing gem...<Gem:RemoteFetcher::FetchError>
Errno :ECONNREFUSED: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. -connect<2> <http://gems.rubyforge.org/yaml>

I'm not sure what that means, but it sounds like it might be a problem with the rubyforge server.

Is there any contact information where in which I can get help for Watir installation ?

Possibly here. Have you tried gem update --system again recently?
