Maybe it would be good to uninstall then re-install with Instant Rail?

(See http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=904 )


That would give me Ruby 2.0, and I could start again to install oci8.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Better would be:

dir oci8*.* /s

There is no such thing as ruby 2.0.

You can see the contents of instant rails 2.0 here:
http://rubyforge.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=20229

It has very old versions of everything (dating from Dec 2007). ruby
1.8.6p111 was very stable, but rubygems 1.0.1 is old, and nobody would
run rails 2.0.2 these days.

To use ruby-oci8 1.0 gems, delete C:\Ruby\lib\ruby\site_ruby\1.8\oci8.rb
and all files under C:\Ruby\lib\ruby\site_ruby\1.8\oci8\.

To use ruby-oci8 2.0, copy *all* files under C:\Ruby\extract\oci8\lib to
C:\Ruby\lib\ruby\site_ruby\1.8 including oci8lib_18.so.
