Hi vinutha,

Are you sitting behind any network proxy?. If so please contact your
network administrator to give access to rubyonrails.org website.

Regars,

The ruby/rails/ruby installer has many bugs in Windows 8. If you don’t
install Ruby in the exactly folder as is suggested, (e.g.: if you
install in something like “d:\my apps\ruby”), it won’t work, because the
installer have trouble dealing with special characters, with whitespaces
in the path, with more than 8 characters in the folder name (reminds me
the old ms-dos), and I guess that some lines in the source-code has this
default path explicitly written.

Beside this you may also contact Ruby on Rails experts in India; Since
they can easily guide and solve your many problems.

This won’t be a direct reply to your question, but if you’re thinking
about
serious development use linux-based dev environment.
You can use Virtualbox on your Windows to install Linux on it…
Just my advice.
