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.
