It appears that ruby-install
is not installing the openssl
, libreadline
, etc, dependencies. Apparently AWS Linux is based on RHEL and uses the yum
package manager. Not sure why ruby-install
isn't detecting yum
and installing the packages via yum
. Make sure you have the following packages installed xz gcc automake bison zlib-devel libyaml-devel openssl-devel gdbm-devel readline-devel ncurses-devel libffi-devel
.
Thanks so much for the quick reply! That worked!!
I first checked with yum directly:
[ sudo yum install xz gcc automake bison zlib-devel libyaml-devel openssl-devel gdbm-devel readline-devel ncurses-devel libffi-devel ]
and those packages were not installed, then I added them for install in the ansible playbook with:
- name: "Prerequisite: ensure devel pkgs are installed on machine"
ansible.builtin.yum:
name: xz,gcc,automake,bison,zlib-devel,libyaml-devel,openssl-devel,gdbm-devel,readline-devel,ncurses-devel,libffi-devel
state: present
and viola, everything worked! [>>> Successfully installed ruby 2.7.5 into /opt/ruby/2.7.5]
Thanks so much!
Ansible:
Direct console: sudo /home/developer/ruby_install/bin/ruby-install ruby 2.7.5 --install-dir /opt/ruby/2.7.5
Hi,
Can anyone help me on this issue. I'm using AWS Linux 2 and I'm trying to install ruby 2.7.5 on the machine with the following command:
sudo /home/developer/ruby_install/bin/ruby-install ruby 2.7.5 --install-dir /opt/ruby/2.7.5 but fails with the details at the end.
I tried with sudo /home/developer/ruby_install/bin/ruby-install ruby 2.7.5 --install-dir /opt/ruby/2.7.5 --with-openssl-dir=/usr/bin/openssl but get: ruby-install: unrecognized option --with-openssl-dir=/usr/bin/openssl
My openssl version is: OpenSSL 1.0.2k-fips 26 Jan 2017
the first command runs through a lot of processing but ultimately fails with the details below (I've installed gdbm, readline, groupinstall "Developer Tools", and zlib but there is no yum package for dbm, I just find: ================================================ N/S matched: dbm ================================================ gdbm-devel.aarch64 : Development libraries and header files for the gdbm library gdbm.aarch64 : A GNU set of database routines which use extensible hashing tokyocabinet.aarch64 : A modern implementation of a DBM ):

readline:
Could not be configured. It will not be installed.

Check ext/readline/mkmf.log for more details.
zlib:
Could not be configured. It will not be installed.
Check ext/zlib/mkmf.log for more details.
Fix the problems, then remove these directories and try again if you want.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
