Mountain Lion - LibXML & Nokogiri

Question

I\'ve just updated to OS X Mountain Lion and I\'m getting the following when working with rails and terminal.

WARNING: Nokogiri was built against LibXML vers         


        

Answer 1

Putting gem 'nokogiri' above gem 'pg' in my Gemfile fixed this for me.

My Gemfile didn't have nokogiri in it, but it was a dependency that was in Gemfile.lock, so I put it in my Gemfile explicitly.

Answer 2

Nothing seemed to work for me to fix this one.

Then I went into xcode and installed the updated command line tools, then gem uninstall nokogiri and gem install nokogiri and it worked!

Answer 3

Using Ruby 1.9.3-p194 and Rails 3.2.11 on OS X 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion), starting rails c gave the warning:

WARNING: Nokogiri was built against LibXML version 2.8.0, but has dynamically loaded 2.7.8

The uninstall/install nokogiri trick didn't work for me. The solution was much simpler... The warning was avoided completely by editing the Gemifile to place 'nokogiri' above 'pg'.

Answer 4

After upgrading ruby-build

brew update
brew upgrade ruby-build

I just reinstalled ruby (last version)

rbenv install 1.9.3-p194

and then I installed all the gems related to my project including nokogiri without having further problems.

gem install bundler
bundle

Answer 5

So I ended up using the following command:

bundle config build.nokogiri --with-xml2-include=/usr/local/Cellar/libxml2/2.7.8/include/libxml2 --with-xml2-lib=/usr/local/Cellar/libxml2/2.7.8/lib --with-xslt-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/libxslt/1.1.26/

And then doing:

gem uninstall nokogiri
gem install nokogiri

And then ran

bundle install

Answer 6

all the solution listed so far in here didn't work for me.

So, I did a brew uninstall libxml2 it was the version libxml2 2.8.0 and i guess my os x has libxml2 version 2.7.8 pre-installed

then i did gem uninstall nokogiri and then gem install nokogiri

Warning is gone now. But it's libxml2 version 2.7.8 and not the latest. So, I appreciate, if you suggest some solution that work with latest version of libxml2.
