The error message you’re getting indicates that ruby is having a
problem loading a dynamic library. From the long error report you
posted on Aug 21 it looks like the problem is related to loading the
sqlite3 library:

You might want to reinstall the sqlite3-ruby gem:

gem uninstall sqlite3-ruby
gem install sqlite3-ruby

He is running on Windows.
I had to put sqlite3.dll and tclsqlite3.dll in my c:\ruby\bin directory.
See if that fixes it.

25

I had the same problem.

In the dir C:\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\sqlite3-ruby-1.2.5-x86-
mswin32 that is where sqlite3 is installed, I executed setup.rb and
the problem was solved.

26

ok…do all the steps mentioned I still get the same error message…
Why doesnt Webrick tell us more about what exactly is wrong !?!?!!?

Hi I had the same problem but its working now. Try just runing the
server and entering http://localhost:3000, click on the link “About
your aplications environment” if you see an error then it is a database
problem. In your prompt enter the config binder and in a text editor
look at the file database.yml if it says Adapter:sqlite3 then you need
to install sqlite3. Type in the prompt gem install sqlite3-ruby, to
complete the installation you have to download a dll and copy it to
windows\system32 o sysWOW64 o system you can find the dll file at
http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/database-support/sqlite.

If the databse.yml was related to mysql probably you set up a password
when installing it and probably you would need to edit the yml file to
add it.

Hope it works…
