Hi team,

I'm using Windows 7 64 Bit OS, and I use PC with 8 GB RAM .
Below is how I have set up Ruby and rails support.
C:\Users\mishraak>gem environment

RubyGems Environment:

• RUBYGEMS VERSION: 1.3.7
• RUBY VERSION: 1.8.7 (2010-08-16 patchlevel 302) [i386-mingw32]

I imported an old code into workspace which was built on ruby 1.8.7 and rails 2.3.9.
I also need connectivity to Sybase and ORacle DB for this and I have installed gems for this.

When I try to start rails server, i get below message - saying it's a bug.

C:/Ruby187/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31: [BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.7 (2010-08-16 patchlevel 302) [i386-mingw32]

After this, rubyw.exe terminates.

I tried to ask if anybody else had encountered this earlier, but there are no relevant results .
Coudl you please help to fix thgis error? Also, development.log are clean. I can't find anything in Windiws event viewer either.

Also, I have faced issues while installing mongrel web server on windows for this before I got this error too.
While trying I suddenly started getting segmentation fault error. I have tried to set up everything from scratch, still no use.

Please help. thank you in advance!

Hi Hiroshi, Thanks for getting back so quickly! really appreciate it.
But can you please let us know if any patch was released for fixing this?

This is important for me to get past this issue. Any help would be very helpful.
Thanks again!

We can say nothing since no information except for just it segfaulted, but 1.8.7-p302, 2010-08-16, is very very old at least.
The last release of 1.8.7 should be p374.

# p375 and p376 have been released?
