I don't know how this happened, but somehow a file named 127.0.0.1 got created in my Jekyll website repo root directory. My errors were these:

jekyll 3.9.0 | Error: No such device or address @ rb_sysopen - /home/username/GS/dev/ElectricRCAircraftGuy.github.io/127.0.0.1

and

/home/username/gems/gems/jekyll-3.9.0/lib/jekyll/utils.rb:146:in `initialize': No such device or address @ rb_sysopen - /home/username/GS/dev/ElectricRCAircraftGuy.github.io/127.0.0.1 (Errno::ENXIO)

Full output:

So, oddly enough, my solution was to delete that 127.0.0.1 file:

rm 127.0.0.1

Fixed!

Now, this works just fine:

bundle exec jekyll serve --livereload --drafts --unpublished

I've had the same problem, and been looking for solution, but it seems that it is a problem with the 2.5.0 version of jekyll, for Windows specifically. I think.

There's already been an issue reported at: https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll/issues/3068

For now, the only workaround i can find is downgrading to jekyll 2.4.0 just as namam posted.

And wait for a fix or a better workaround for 2.5.0

I got the same error. Seems that jekyll 2.5.0 is not compatible with all the others.

Try running this

gem uninstall jekyll

gem install  jekyll -v 2.4.0

and then build the site again

This method worked for me
