Not able to install LuaSocket from LuaRocks on Windows

I installed the LuaRocks legacy package which includes Lua 5.1 on Windows. But when I run luarocks install luasocket, I get the following output:

Installing https://luarocks.org/luasocket-3.0rc1-2.src.rock

luasocket 3.0rc1-2 depends on lua >= 5.1 (5.1-1 provided by VM)

What should I do install LuaSocket?

Solution

  • There is a ticket for this where they suggest using Mingw-w64 and x86_64 as architecture, and sj_lj for exception model. But it does not appear to be resolved. https://github.com/diegonehab/luasocket/issues/241
