Can't find the 'libpq

I am using the Ruby on Rails 3.1 pre version. I like to use PostgreSQL, but the problem is installing the pg gem. It gives me the following error:

$ gem install pg
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing pg:
    ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

        /home/u/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin/ruby extconf.rb

No pg_config... trying anyway. If building fails, please try again with
 --with-pg-config=/path/to/pg_config
checking for libpq-fe.h... no

    --without-pg-lib=${pg-dir}/lib
    --with-pg-config
    --without-pg-config
    --with-pg_config
    --without-pg_config


Gem files will remain installed in /home/u/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0/gems/pg-0.11.0 for inspection.
Results logged to /home/u/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0/gems/pg-0.11.0/ext/gem_make.out

How do I solve this problem?


It looks like in Ubuntu that header is part of the libpq-dev package (at least in the following Ubuntu versions: 11.04 (Natty Narwhal), 10.04 (Lucid Lynx), 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot), 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) and 14.04 (Trusty Tahr)):

...
/usr/include/postgresql/libpq-fe.h
...

So try installing libpq-dev or its equivalent for your OS:

  • For Ubuntu systems: sudo apt-get install libpq-dev
  • On Red Hat Linux (RHEL) systems: yum install postgresql-devel
  • For Mac Homebrew: brew install postgresql
  • For Mac MacPorts PostgreSQL: gem install pg -- --with-pg-config=/opt/local/lib/postgresql[version number]/bin/pg_config
  • For OpenSuse: zypper in postgresql-devel

  • On macOS (previously Mac OS X and OS X ), use Homebrew to install the proper headers:

    brew install postgresql
    

    and then running

    gem install pg
    

    should work.


    I had also tried doing gem install libpq-dev , but I received this error:

    Can't find the 'libpq-fe.h header
    *** extconf.rb failed ***
    

    However I found that installing with sudo apt-get (which I try to avoid using with Ruby on Rails) worked, ie

    sudo apt-get install libpq-dev
    # or
    apt-get install postgres-server-dev-{pg.version}
    # for postgresql 9.4 on Ubuntu 14.04
    

    then I was able to do

    gem install pg
    

    without issues.
