I want to install rails to use it with aptana studio 3. After hiting gem install rails following error is being thrown:

ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Zlib::GzipFile::Error)
    not in gzip format

I installed ruby 1.9.2 and and rubygems 1.8.9 seperately (after that I read about ruby 1.9.1+ including gem support already).

My gem source is: http://rubygems.org/

I have searched for solutions for quite some time. But can’t find the issue.

Your help is appreciated 🙂

EDIT1:

All right. After using the RailsInstaller I can find Rails in my gem-folder. When I try to open a project in Aptana I get the following Error:

sh.exe":C:/Projects/railsinstaller/Stage/Ruby1.9.2/bin/ruby.exe: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

found simialar issue here and here. but didn’t help in my case.
