Can't run cloned repository


How do I download my old code from github? I made a mistake on my app, and when I try to download the old zip file from github and run it I get an error.

I think I'm doing it right, don't I just need to clone the repository? When I do, i get this error when I try to run the server:

An error occurred while installing pg (0.17.0), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install pg -v '0.17.0'` succeeds before bundling.

and when I run bundel install I still get the error.

I also get this error:

bundle install doesn't work and I still get the error along with this one:Gem::Installer::ExtensionBuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension

Solution

  • If you have installed Mavericks, that is the source of your problem. I had to install another gem with native dependencies that needed to be compiled after I installed Mavericks, and some changes as to which compiler Mavericks uses to compile gem dependencies creates problems. In your case, I would suggest you pick one of the solutions in this answer to resolve your PG installation problems.
