Error when Installing ruby on rails on Windows 8

I need to install ruby on rails for college. I can get as far as the 'welcome page' but when I try to run a sample page I'm getting an error.

A friend of mine has a similar problem and he too uses windows 8.

I got out an old laptop ( Windows 7 ) and installed it and I'm not getting the error page so I'm pretty sure it's got something to do with Windows 8.

You have to either install nodejs, or add TheRubyRacer gem to your project. To do the latter, edit your Gemfile and add:

gem 'therubyracer'

Then run:

bundle install

And that should fix it.
