Question

After Installing Rails 3, I get the following error regarding Sqlite3 when I try to do a migrate:

dlsym(0x1037e5f10,
Init_sqlite3_native): symbol not found
– /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/sqlite3-ruby-1.3.0/lib/sqlite3/sqlite3_native.bundle

I am using Snow Leopard, if that makes a difference.

Answer 1

I faced the same issue. The problem is that your sqlite-ruby interface is not installed properly in your snow leopard. To install that , use the following :-

sudo gem install sqlite3-ruby

But before installing that check if a proper gcc is installed in your Mac.Use the below lines to check that :-
ok First of all check if the follwoing is installed:-

$gcc -v     

If not then you have to install Mac developers xcode package in your snow leopard first.
You can download using a free registration from this site:- http://developer.apple.com/devcenter/mac

For more reference take a look into my post : How to install ruby interface for sqlite3 in Mac snow leopard?

If you face the problem the problem even after trying these please let me know the error your facing. Because I faced all the error before making my snow leopard work ;). So I ‘m familiar to most of the errors and blunders we usually make 😉 !!
