Postgres was downloaded and installed from http://www.postgresql.org/download/macosx/ (version 9.1)

I was trying to install postgres with brew - no results.

How to fix this ? Thanks

回答1:

The error message ("You have to install development tools first.") says it all. Install Xcode first, and then try installing the pg gem.

Also, you don't have to install a third-party PostgreSQL on Lion, as it's already included.

I was having the same issue and here is where I found my resolution

Hope this helps!
