Cannot create a new Rails App after upgrading to Rails 6.1.4

I wanted to start a new rails project and decided to upgrade my Rails and Ruby versions. I started by upgrading Rails to 6.1.4 and later upgraded Ruby to 3.0.2 Before creating my new app I decided to check once more the version of Rails running and I had this error:

$ rails -v
Traceback (most recent call last):
    2: from /Users/el/.rbenv/versions/2.6.5/bin/rails:23:in `<main>'
    1: from /Users/el/.rbenv/versions/2.6.5/lib/ruby/2.6.0/rubygems.rb:302:in `activate_bin_path'
/Users/el/.rbenv/versions/2.6.5/lib/ruby/2.6.0/rubygems.rb:283:in `find_spec_for_exe': can't find gem railties (>= 0.a) with executable rails (Gem::GemNotFoundException)

I tried the create new rails app command and had the same error as below;

$ rails new tracking-app-api --api --database=postgresql
Traceback (most recent call last):
    2: from /Users/el/.rbenv/versions/2.6.5/bin/rails:23:in `<main>'
    1: from /Users/el/.rbenv/versions/2.6.5/lib/ruby/2.6.0/rubygems.rb:302:in `activate_bin_path'

I ran the command $ gem update --system and currently have:

gem env

I ran gem install rails and it fixed the issue. This is because I upgraded Rails before upgrading Ruby and as such my gem file did not have the rails gem. So I think it is advisable to always upgrade Ruby before upgrading Rails.
