sqlite3-ruby install error on Ubuntu

Hey guys I use apt-get to install sqlite3 in my VPS which is running Ubuntu 10,I can run sqlite3 with no problem. But when I try to use gem install sqlite3, I got this error:

root@makserver:/# gem install sqlite3
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing sqlite3:
    ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

        /usr/local/bin/ruby extconf.rb
checking for sqlite3.h... no
sqlite3.h is missing. Try 'port install sqlite3 +universal'
or 'yum install sqlite3-devel' and check your shared library search path (the
location where your sqlite3 shared library is located).
*** extconf.rb failed ***
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.

Provided configuration options:

    --without-opt-dir
    --with-opt-include
    --without-opt-include=${opt-dir}/include
    --with-opt-lib
    --without-opt-lib=${opt-dir}/lib

    --with-sqlite3-include
    --without-sqlite3-include=${sqlite3-dir}/include
    --with-sqlite3-lib
    --without-sqlite3-lib=${sqlite3-dir}/lib


Gem files will remain installed in /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/sqlite3-1.3.3 for inspection.
Results logged to /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/sqlite3-1.3.3/ext/sqlite3/gem_make.out

Any advice?

回答1:

You need to first install the sqlite development headers so it can compile the gem against them:

sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-dev

Then try installing the gem.
