5 years ago Hi @estelleccl,
Thank you for opening the this issue.
The error is probably caused by the fact that you’re using Ruby 1.8.7 (according to the log). Version 1.8.7 is a very old version and it isn’t supported any more (not even by the official Ruby language).
In fact, on March 31st, 2019, support for Ruby version 2.3.x has ended. This means you should update to version 2.4.x or higher.
I recommend that you update your Ruby version to the latest stable release.
Let me know if this solves your issue.
Kindly, Bo.
Hi,
I hit the following error when require "combine_pdf" in the console. What should I do?
