ruby on rails - Cygwin (on Windows) - Permission Denied - Cannot compile -


i trying build , install libyaml per instructions on website > http://pyyaml.org/wiki/libyaml

  • ./configure > successful
  • make > successful
  • make install > failed

i following error "cannot create directory '/usr/local/include': permission denied." see below:

p.s. running administrator.

jetblue@jetblue-laptop ~/yaml-0.1.4 $ make install making install in include make[1]: entering directory `/home/jetblue/yaml-0.1.4/include' make[2]: entering directory `/home/jetblue/yaml-0.1.4/include' make[2]: nothing done `install-exec-am'. test -z "/usr/local/include" || /usr/bin/mkdir -p "/usr/local/include" /usr/bin/mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/local/include': permission denied makefile:235: recipe target `install-nobase_includeheaders' failed make[2]: *** [install-nobase_includeheaders] error 1 make[2]: leaving directory `/home/jetblue/yaml-0.1.4/include' makefile:356: recipe target `install-am' failed make[1]: *** [install-am] error 2 make[1]: leaving directory `/home/jetblue/yaml-0.1.4/include' makefile:343: recipe target `install-recursive' failed make: *** [install-recursive] error 1 

how 1 resolve "permission denied" error?

thanks time.

update -> solution

it seems bypass "permission denied" error, not need administrator, administrator installed cygwin. (they ones can freely edit files in cygwin's /usr/local/ directory).

hence problem. though administrator still didn't have edit rights directory.

so ... using account develop -_- (too work @ moment start playing around sudos etc.)

p.s. not sure if yaakov saying...

check permissions on /usr/local, or recompile --prefix have write permissions.

but should aware library available in cygwin distribution; install libyaml-devel , dependencies use it.
