An error occurred while installing pg (0.18.3) and Bundler cannot continue


I am facing pg gem issue for my Rails project on bundle install and it is using using ruby-2.2.2 and rails (4.2.0) on Macbook. I am getting the following error: An error occurred while installing pg (0.18.3) and Bundler cannot continue. Can anyone assist how it can be fixed?


Solution

  • I resolved it on my Macbook by installing libpqxx using below command:

    brew install libpqxx
    

    On Ubuntu, you can run below command to fix this issue:

    sudo apt-get install libpq-dev
