How to install Compass on Windows
compass-sass, ruby-1.9.3
Solution
I was behind a proxy and HumberFrench's solution above helped:
Go to Ruby bin folder:
cd c:/Ruby193/bin
And then install compass gem:
gem install compass --http-proxy http://<proxy_adreess>:<port_of_proxy>
Another tip: am on Aptana Studio, so this could be run from within Aptana's terminal.
Cant up-vote so adding this here.
Problem
I have installed Ruby on my system, and now I want to install Compass. But when I execute the `gem install compass` command, it shows an error like this: ``` could not find valid gem 'compass' <>=0> in any repositary ``` And also: ``` SocketError: getadressinfo: no such host is known.<http://rubygems.org/latest_specs.4.8.gz> ``` I don't know what the problem is. If I run `ruby -v`, it shows the Ruby version. So what's the problem with installing Compass? Can anyone explain this to me properly? I've searched Google, but all I could find was some proxy problem - and I couldn't understand how to set the proxy at all. I'm using Windows and a company internet connection, so I don't know the username and password of my proxy.
