Ruby can't link with MS C runtime (msvcr90.dll)

I was attempting to run the Ruby Thin demo application on Windows/XP when I got an error that Windows couldn't find "msvcr90.dll" for Ruby 1.8.7 -- I found a redistributable and put that in my path to be confronted with the information that:

"R6034 ... application has made an attempt to lead the C runtime incorrectly"

Earlier today I ran a few eventmachine demos oK, so I am thinking that the problem is with Thin.

The Ruby stack dump isn't that helpful ... (included below). Is there a cure?

I've looked over the other MSVCR90.DLL posts, none of those cures work. The MSVCR90.DLL is now in system32 -- With the "incorrectly linked" error.

Thanks in advance.

For Ruby 1.9 this appears to be getting resolved with the (Windows) RubyInstaller DevKit, caveat it is still a work in progress.

Harking back to the original issue, the build will depend on which compiler the Ruby you are using was built with, etc. Even with the current DevKit things aren't 100%. I had a few builds fail. So there's definite sensitivity to your environment.

Good luck.

appears to be that you need to exclude the /MD parameter and make sure your library calls xfree, not free :)
