[sonianand11]

when I am trying to run server it gives me the following error: "Could not find gem 'hpricot', required by 'remit', in any of the sources"

Installed gems:

1)relax (0.0.7) 2)remit (2.0.1) 3)hpricot (0.8.4 i386-mswin32)

Platform: windows 7 with Rails 3.0.5, Ruby192 I have included the statement " gem 'remit' " in my Gemfile. What should I do?

What does your Gemfile.lock look like?

What should I change in this file?

[tylerhunt]

It looks like Gemfile.lock wasn't updated. If you just run bundle on the command line that will update the lock file and should solve your issue.

when I run the command bundle, it stops at 'hpricot' installation. Let me give you the errors which are occurring:

Yet I have successfully installed 'hpricot' gem by command : gem install hpricot --platform=mswin32

[tylerhunt]

I really don't know much about Windows, but try adding this line to your Gemfile:

gem 'hpricot', :platforms => [:mswin, :mingw]
