An error occurred while installing http_parser.rb (0.6.0)

[lalegamero]

I have used Frasco a few times without any issue. Today I was trying to create a new website project but during the installation process when typing npm install the following error occurs:

> frasco@0.8.1 preinstall C:\projects\_sites\frasco`
> bundle install --path vendor/bundle

Thanks in advance for your help!

@lalegamero Sorry for the late reply. Did you try gem install http_parser.rb -v '0.6.0' --source 'https://rubygems.org/'? Does this succeed?

[lalegamero]

@ixkaito Thanks for your response.

I also tried to manually install the http_parser with the command that you suggested and then continue with Frasco installation with the command npm install but unfortunatey I get the same error message:

An error occurred while installing http_parser.rb (0.6.0), and Bundler cannot continue. Make sure that gem install http_parser.rb -v '0.6.0' --source 'https://rubygems.org/' succeeds before bundling. ... ...

I've also tried to install the http_parser even before running the command npm install but always get the same error message.

I have no idea why! Any suggestion in order to solve this issue?

Thanks a lot for your help.

I'm sure you already did this but have you tried removing the .lock files? And re-running npm install usually helps me with Gem relayed issues.

[lalegamero]

Thanks for your suggestion @ginfuru.

I've also followed your advice but I'm still getting the same error message...

Are you guys running Frasco on Windows 10 by any chance?

Thanks!

[edheltzel]

@lalegamero I am not....

[ixkaito]

@lalegamero Me, either.

Could you try upgrading ruby to v2.5.0 or later? Please remove vendorand node_modules folders or clone the repository again before npm i.

@lalegamero @ixkaito

I had a similar issue with http_parser on OSX. I tracked it down to an issue with a space in my path https://github.com/tmm1/http_parser.rb/issues/47 😔

@lalegamero maybe your issue involves setting a PATH to your \bin?

[MahdiBaghbani]

this annoys me, why having space would destroy my build (and time), aren't we living in 2019?

[qompio]

Wow this took me all morning and all sorts of trouble shooting. It was driving me mad! Taking the space out of the path worked! Thank you @wnstck.

Released v1.0.0. Please have a try.
