Ruby on Rails

Hi Colin,

Thank you for your quick reply!

I am using Windows 7. Ruby works fine as I've been using cmd prompt and
irb to experiment with Ruby. The tutorial is "Getting Started with
Rails" (http://guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started.html). I got stuck
at the beginning of 4. Hello, Rails!.

When I initially tried to install rails, it failed and asked me to
download the DevKit. I followed all the instructions on that correctly.
Then I tried installing rails again and it had a bunch of "could not
convert ASCII-8BIT to UTF-8" and skipped those files. It wasn't until I
got stuck with this error (see post above) that I installed sqlite3.
When I installed sqlite3, it said something about being added to Gemfile
list (if I remember right). I still don't see it when I do gem list.

I did discover sqlite3 in Gemfile.lock and the text: "# Use sqlite3 as
the database for Active Record
gem 'sqlite3'" in Gemfile in the root directory of the blog the tutorial
asked me to make.

Thanks once again!
