I've been trying to install ruby and rails today on my XP machines, and i keep getting the same error, when I enter:
gem install rails --remote

installation issues
[View]
The workaround is to explicitly install the old version of Rails. You'd first have to uninstall each of Rails components that got installed before it blew up, but I think it would be easier just to start over and uninstall Ruby (either from the start menu entry or from add-remove programs).
Then reinstall Ruby and use this command to install Rails:
gem install rails -v 0.10.1That worked for me. I will report this problem to the Rails team.
