I have just installed RailsInstaller on my Windows 10 PC. I am not able to run rails s or rails g controller StaticPages home help.
I have also tried to fix this by installing the zeus gem as suggested by this related StackOverflow question but had no success.
Gemfile:
source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'rails', '4.2.2'
gem 'sass-rails', '5.0.2'
gem 'uglifier', '2.5.3'
gem 'coffee-rails', '4.1.0'
gem 'jquery-rails', '4.0.3'
gem 'turbolinks', '2.3.0'
gem 'jbuilder', '2.2.3'
gem 'sdoc', '0.4.0', group: :doc
gem 'pry-nav', group: [:development, :test]
group :development, :test do
gem 'sqlite3', '>= 1.3.9'
gem 'byebug', '3.4.0'
gem 'web-console', '2.0.0.beta3'
gem 'spring', '1.1.3'
end
group :test do
gem 'minitest-reporters', '1.0.5'
gem 'mini_backtrace', '0.1.3'
gem 'guard-minitest', '2.3.1'
end
group :production do
gem 'pg', '0.17.1'
gem 'rails_12factor', '0.0.2'
end
Errors:

The backtrace tells us that the web-console gem wants Ruby's pty library. Unfortunately PTYs (pseudo-terminals) are a Unix/Linux feature which does not exist on Windows, so that Ruby library doesn't either.
You can get moving in a couple of ways:
If you don't care about the web-console gem right now, just remove it from your Gemfile.
If you really need the web-console gem, try replacing web-console with these gems:
gem 'rubysl-pty', platforms: :ruby
gem 'web-console-rails3', platforms: :ruby
