Error "no such file to load" -- sqlite3/sqlite3_native (LoadError)

Question

My OS is Windows 7.

My problem is that when I try to run rails server, an error occurs. I have installed the sqlite3 gem, even the sqlite-ruby gem, and still nothing.

I already don't know what to do anymore.

If anyone needs any additional information, ask for it and I'll put it up.

The complete error is:

Answer 2

Forget all the so called "answers", no compiling of the sources or downloading pre-compiled libraries will solve this problem, believe me I tried everything, the problem lies somewhere else. This is how it works on windows:

bundle update sqlite3

You likely get another similar error after this one regarding nokogiri, fix it with the command:

bundle update nokogiri

Enjoy your Ruby App!
