208 PointsProblem with config.yml when installing ruby on rails
Im running ruby dk.rb init (inside my devkit folder) and then ruby dk.rb install but there is a message that says: "is needed to fix config.yml"
This is my config.yml
# This configuration file contains the absolute path locations of all
# installed Rubies to be enhanced to work with the DevKit. This config
# file is generated by the 'ruby dk.rb init' step and may be modified
# before running the 'ruby dk.rb install' step. To include any installed
# Rubies that were not automagically discovered, simply add a line below
# the triple hyphens with the absolute path to the Ruby root directory.
#
# Example:
#
# ---
# - C:/ruby19trunk
# - C:/ruby192dev
#
---

5,183 PointsIf anyone get this error, chances are that you installed Ruby x64.
You can get the installation to work by opening %DevKitExtractionDir%\dk.rb(if you followed the video, it will be C:\Ruby200\devkit) in a text editor and changing the REG_KEYS array to include the 64-bit registry path, so it looks like this:
REG_KEYS = [ 'Software\RubyInstaller\MRI', 'Software\RubyInstaller\Rubinius', ' Software\Wow6432Node\RubyInstaller\MRI' ]
