Hi, I am getting below error while installing libxml-ruby gem. As per peoples suggestion on other threads, I tried to install 32 bit version of libxml-ruby gem, but still getting the same error.
I am using windows 7 and Ruby 1.9.3.
Please help me out here as I need to make the old project run on my new job.
