problem installing gem for postgresql
Jim
When I run the command: "gem install pg" to try to install the gem for postgresql on windows 7, I see the following issue.
extconf.rb:33:in ``': No such file or directory - C:\Program
Files (x86)\Postgre
SQL\8.4\bin/pg_config.exe --cflags (Errno::ENOENT)
from extconf.rb:33:in `<main>'
It's worth noting that the path and exe list in the error above actually do exist, although I find the backslash/forwardslash syntax a little weird. I'm also running my command prompt as an adminstrator, so security shouldn't be an issue?
I'm new to ruby, rails, and gems - any help would be appreciated. I'm trying to learn RoR, but not being able to connect to my database (Postgresql) is holding me back.

This is a bug with pg, not RubyGems.
