Hi, First let me say that I’m a total newbie and I just installed ruby on rails
After installing rails on my computer I am getting the following error when I try to create a new app. In the command prompt I type in “rails new nameofapp” and it installs some things and then spits out the following error message, “An error occurred while installing rake <10.4.2>, and Bundler cannot continue. Make sure that 'gem install rake -v ‘10.4.2’ succeeds before bundling.”
I don't have much experience in rails to tell you what to do, but open
your command promt and run this:
$ gem install rake -v 10.4.2
This message is telling you that the rails can't install this gem, and
you need this. Send me some message when you thy this, because I don't
have sure that this will work.

What is this error message and what do I do?
I'm using Windows 8 and Rails Installer 1.9.
I suggest starting by working right through a good tutorial such as
railstutorial.org (which is free to use online).
As for your error, many here, including myself, would suggest that you
do not try to do rails development on Windows. Instead use a linux
variety such as Ubuntu, or a Mac. Some have had success on Windows,
but many more have not. You can either dual boot your machine with
ubuntu and Win or run ubuntu in a virtual machine in windows (using
virtual box or vmware for example). Then I use rvm to install ruby
and rails.
