    <p>I am using the Ruby on Rails 3.1 pre version. I like to use PostgreSQL, but the problem is installing the <code>pg</code> gem. It gives me the following error:</p> <pre><code>$ gem install pg Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: Error installing pg: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. /home/u/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p0/bin/ruby extconf.rb checking for pg_config... no No pg_config... trying anyway. If building fails, please try again with --with-pg-config=/path/to/pg_config checking for libpq-fe.h... no Can't find the 'libpq-fe.h header *** extconf.rb failed *** Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary libraries and/or headers.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
