If you are new to Rails, why in the world are you worrying about getting an
IDE to work with it?  I would recommend that you not do this.

Fire up a text editor like vim, emacs, or even gedit and a terminal or two
and go to town.  You want to keep things basic, so that you can learn HOW
rails works.  The two things you should be doing is editing text files and
running rails/rake commands from the command line.

Trying to use a fancy IDE like RubyMine will teach you very little about
what is going on behind the scenes, plus, as you have found, if you don't
yet know what you are doing, it can be hard to get working properly.

If you follow this approach, you may find that, even after you learn how
rails works, that you don't WANT to go back to using an IDE, that you can
do just fine using a plain old editor and the command line.
