42,016 Pointsare you running 64 bit windows? try using this in your gemfile instead of what you have currently
gem 'tzinfo-data', platforms: [:mingw, :mswin, :x64_mingw]
then run
bundle update
bundle install
if you are using a 64 bit version of windows thats likely the solution. You just need to add that x64 windows platform to the platforms array.

42,016 Pointsdid you add it to your gemfile after installing it? also install tzinfo-data and add it to the gemfile as well
gem install tzinfo-data
gem install tzinfo
then in your gemfile add
gem "tzinfo-data"
gem "tzinfo"

9,324 Pointsfound that at the end of the gemfile:
# Windows does not include zoneinfo files, so bundle the tzinfo-data gem
gem 'tzinfo-data', platforms: [:mingw, :mswin]
also there is no config.rb, there is a config.ru though.
it's contents:
# This file is used by Rack-based servers to start the application.
require ::File.expand_path('../config/environment', __FILE__)
run Rails.application

42,016 Pointshmm so you already had that in your gemfile correct? you did not have to add it yourself.
