%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Programs\rails_apps\history> gem update rails ERROR: While executing gem ... (ArgumentError) uri scheme is invalid Updating installed gems Process gem exited with code 1
I received this error first while attempting 'gem install will_paginate' and have been unable to do any gem install or gem update commands since. I recently installed git on my computer, but other than that have made no changes to my environment recently. I couldn't find anything on this error elsewhere.
Check your Gem sources with: `gem sources` and remove http://gems.rubyonrails.org if it's listed. The main rubyonrails.org domain is down. ihth

Try doing a "gem sources" and see if one of your sources is http://gems.rubyonrails.org
If it is, remove it with "gem sources --remove http://gems.rubyonrails.org". I had the same problem today, I think it is related to the issue that rubyonrails.org is having with their domain name.

Try removing the gem source for rubyonrails.org if it's present. I think the issues they are having with their domain name may be causing your problem.
gem sources --remove http://gems.rubyonrails.org
That's what worked for me.

Thanks Wayne and Arnie,
That did it.
