Sqlite-3 error while running ROR application

When i try to run Ruby on Rails application.... i facing the following error

symbol lookup error: /home/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-preview3/gems/sqlite3-ruby-1.3.0/lib/sqlite3/sqlite3_native.so: undefined symbol: sqlite3_initialize

I don't know whats the error exactly. can any one please help me out this......

Solution

  • I had the same issue this morning after upgrading sqlite3-ruby to 1.3.0. A quick fix is to uninstall 1.3.0 and ensure 1.2.5 is installed:

    gem uninstall sqlite3-ruby --version 1.3.0
gem install sqlite3-ruby --version 1.2.5

    The better option is to set your gem config to ignore 1.3.0. For Rails 2.x, in config/environment.rb:

    config.gem 'sqlite3-ruby', :lib => 'sqlite3', :version => '!= 1.3.0'

    or if you want it play it really safe, explicitly pull in 1.2.5:

    config.gem 'sqlite3-ruby', :lib => 'sqlite3', :version => '1.2.5'
