Shouldn't this part be commented out?

    # Add your own tasks in files placed in lib/tasks ending in .rake,
# for
#example lib/tasks/capistrano.rake, and they will automatically be available to 
#Rake.


require(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'config', 'boot'))


require 'rake'
require 'rake/testtask'
require 'rake/rdoctask'
require 'tasks/rails'

Looks like it's not commented out and ruby is trying to run it as code

My installation is successful. Below is my rake file content:

# Add your own tasks in files placed in lib/tasks ending in .rake,
# for example lib/tasks/capistrano.rake, and they will automatically be available to Rake.

require(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'config', 'boot'))

require 'rake'
require 'rake/testtask'
require 'rake/rdoctask'

require 'tasks/rails'

Copy and paste the above content in your rake file and try again
