My os: windows xp, ruby: 1.8.7, rails: 2.3.5
Everything was fine, but I just installed a "gcc-4.4.0-mingw32-bin", and run gem install rdiscount, then my rails can't start.
Now when I run ruby script/server, or rake gems:install, the following error will occur:
rake aborted!
Malformed version number string mingw32
(See full trace by running task with --trace)

Now I have re-installed my ruby and rails, but the same error still occurs. And I have searched in google, found no solution. It seems I have to re-install my windows xp. Somebody knows the reason? Help...
