Rails doesn't install OS X 10.8.2

Hi I'm going through the tutorial for a Rails application but I got stuck while checking for rails. Terminal answers to rails --help or --version that rails is not installed. When attempting to install ruby version 1.9.3 it fails as well but jruby went through. Any help appreciated.

Hi Jose, have you installed using RailsInstaller?
