I got problem "Processing environment.rb: Pre Initialisation Phase (using rails 2.3.5)" "Processing environment.rb: Main Initialisation Phase" C:/Ruby/bin/rake: No such file or directory - svnversion [memcache-client] Could not load SystemTimer gem, falling back to Ruby's slower/unsafe timeout library: no such file to load -- system_timer rake aborted!

unable to find server during initialization.

C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:2383:in `raw_load_rakefile' I dunno how to install this gem, because when i exec gem install system_timer i receiving: "Processing environment.rb: Pre Initialisation Phase (using rails 2.3.5)" "Processing environment.rb: Main Initialisation Phase" C:/Ruby/bin/rake: No such file or directory - svnversion [memcache-client] Could not load SystemTimer gem, falling back to Ruby's slower/unsafe timeout library: no such file to load -- system_timer rake aborted!

unable to find server during initialization.

C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:2383:in `raw_load_rakefile'

You can't install system_timer in Windows system. If you see on gem page in requirement, you can see

SystemTimer only works on UNIX platforms (Mac OS X, Linux, Solaris, BSD, …). You can install the gem on Microsoft Windows, but you will only get a convenience shell wrapping a simple call to timeout.rb under the cover.
