I am sorry but I think I try everything I have seen on the internet to make it works but it always fails :(

I have to work on an old rails project with ruby 2.1.10 and when I bundle update the nokogiri '1.6.3.1' build fail.

It work's well with ruby 2.6.6 and nokogiri-1.10.10

I have install libxml2 and libxsl with homebrew xcode is install and I have read and agreed on the license

I try to install nokogiri link that gem install nokogiri -v '1.6.3.1' -- --use-system-libraries --with-xml2-include=$(brew --prefix libxml2)/include/libxml2 --with-xslt-include=$(brew --prefix libxslt)/include/libxslt

and this is the output

  • Assuming you're using MacOs, could you try this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26473197/how-to-install-libxml2-dev-libxslt-dev-on-mac-os – Jad Nov 26 '20 at 10:10
  • No, it does not work :( I have the same error message – lokhi Nov 26 '20 at 15:21
  • `libxml2 version 2.9.0 and later is not yet supported, but proceeding anyway.` ... your version of libxml2 is too new! :( can you try to install an older version? – Jad Dec 03 '20 at 16:37
  • I have downgrade the libxml2 to 2.7.2 I have always the libxslt is missing but no more the warning about libxml2 2.9.0 – lokhi Dec 04 '20 at 22:18
  • Now you've downgraded that, are you able to follow the nokogiri Macos tutorial in my answer? – Jad Dec 05 '20 at 23:09
  • no always same error message. But they said "Make sure ruby is compiled with the latest clang compiler." I will try to remove ruby and reinstall it do be sure to compile it with te same version of clang I don't know if it was update on BigSur – lokhi Dec 07 '20 at 09:21
  • I have uninstalled ruby and reinstall it and it works now! thanks a lot @jad for your time and help. – lokhi Dec 10 '20 at 10:42
  • I'm just glad you got it working, despite the "help" I gave you :) – Jad Dec 10 '20 at 13:03

#EDIT#

Nokogiri has a tutorial about installing on MacOS:

https://nokogiri.org/tutorials/installing_nokogiri.html#macos

Can you try the steps in that document?

old information:

as per: libxml2 and libxml2-dev on OSX

brew link --force libxml2

or possibly:

ln -s /usr/local/opt/libxml2/share/aclocal/libxml.m4 /usr/local/share/aclocal/libxml.m4

  • can you `ls /usr/local/share/aclocal/` and see if there are other files, and also `ls /usr/local/opt/libxml2/share/aclocal/` and see if there are missing xml files that you might also want to link? – Jad Nov 29 '20 at 18:45
  • I had edit the post to add new information about ls the two directories – lokhi Dec 03 '20 at 07:27
  • updated my answer with a better more helpful document on the nokogiri website, so hopefully it'll have the steps you need to get it working – Jad Dec 03 '20 at 09:14
  • Thanks I have test all the list bu always the same error with libxslt :( – lokhi Dec 03 '20 at 10:17
  • can you have a look at `/Users/lokhi/.rbenv/versions/2.1.10/lib/ruby/gems/2.1.0/extensions/x86_64-darwin-19/2.1.0-static/nokogiri-1.6.3.1/gem_make.out` and see if there are any more specific compile errors, rather than just a "No" ... it should be close to the end of the file – Jad Dec 03 '20 at 10:22
  • I am sorry thanks for your help, I have edit the post with the output of gem_make.out – lokhi Dec 03 '20 at 14:38
  • oh, not that file, I meant the `mkmf.log` that was talked about ... sorry – Jad Dec 03 '20 at 16:05

I see you already have installed libxml2, also try installing libxslt, libxslt-devel and I think there was also a dependency to openssl-devel at some point.
