Uncaught exception: cannot load such file -- bcrypt about bcrypt-ruby HOT 5 CLOSED

gem install bcrypt-ruby --platform=ruby

This probably installed the gem without the extension.. try gem uninstall bcrypt-ruby first?

I've given that a shot, it doesn't appear to help.

@roberts1000 Can you confirm whether or not this is still an issue? Does the following in your Gemfile work?

gem 'bcrypt', '~> 3.1.7'

For the sake of issue management, I'm going to close this until more info is provided. I'll reopen once you respond.

@tjschuck 3.1.2 actually started working for me. If you guys didn't work some magic, I believe it had something to do with bundler. I was using an older version of bundler that could not manage gems on 64bit windows (see rubygems/bundler#2658 for more info). I upgraded bundler to fix an issue in another gem and when I tried bcrypt again a couple weeks later it was working as well. I can confirm that 3.1.7 too.

Awesome, thanks @roberts1000. 64bit Win support was added in 3.1.2 initially, so I'm glad to hear it was in fact working.

Thanks for posting the upgrade-bundler solution -- hopefully that will help anyone else that finds the issue in the future ❤️
