Error when starting the Rails server on Windows

Right after launching rails server command Ruby terminal doesn't start the server and writes following:

C:/tools/ruby23/lib/ruby/gems/2.3.0/gems/sqlite3-1.3.11-x64-mingw32/lib/sqlite3.rb:6:in `require': cannot load such file -- sqlite3/sqlite3_native (LoadError)

When looking for answers to similar question, I haven't found any working solution. I can say that:

  1. Application is created in directory, in which path are only English symbols.
  2. I tried to fix problem using: gem cleanup bundle install
  3. I tried to start the server using: bundle exec rails server.
  4. I tried to delete the gems which contain "problem" in the gemfile.
  5. Also tried to fully reuninstall Ruby and Rails with all gems.

All that didn't help, so I would really appreciate for working in my case solution!

P.S. I am working on: Windows 8.1 (64-bit), Ruby 2.3.0, Rails 5.0.0

Find your sqlite3 gemspec file. One example is

`/usr/local/share`/gem/specifications/sqlite3-1.3.7.gemspec`

Windows: C:\Ruby21\lib\ruby\gems\2.1.0\specifications.

You should adjust according with your Rubygem path and sqlite3 version. Edit the file above and look for the following line

s.require_paths=["lib"]

change it to

s.require_paths= ["lib/sqlite3_native"]

Hope that helps!!!
