I am trying to install hbase-stargate gem on my hadoop machine having centos-5.8 OS. Hbase is already installed. I am getting below errors.
gem install hbase-stargate Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: Error installing hbase-stargate: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
/usr/bin/ruby extconf.rb checking for curl-config... no checking for main() in -lcurl... no * extconf.rb failed * Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more details. You may need configuration options.
Provided configuration options: --with-opt-dir --without-opt-dir --with-opt-include --without-opt-include=${opt-dir}/include --with-opt-lib --without-opt-lib=${opt-dir}/lib --with-make-prog --without-make-prog --srcdir=. --curdir --ruby=/usr/bin/ruby --with-curl-dir --without-curl-dir --with-curl-include --without-curl-include=${curl-dir}/include --with-curl-lib --without-curl-lib=${curl-dir}/lib --with-curllib --without-curllib extconf.rb:34: Can't find libcurl or curl/curl.h (RuntimeError)
Try passing --with-curl-dir or --with-curl-lib and --with-curl-include options to extconf.
Gem files will remain installed in /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/patron-0.4.18 for inspection. Results logged to /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/patron-0.4.18/ext/patron/gem_make.out
Its giving errors about libcurl however libcurl and libcurl-devel package is also there...
