I’m on windows 10, so this solution: SOLVED --Fatal Error building sites on one particular computer (does not really help since I didn’t use apt-get)

Something else: how do you uninstall jekyll on windows10?

Can you post the output for gem env and gem list jekyll …?
Do you have any plugins in your source directory? ( D:/Jekyll/ga_blog )

Sure, thanks

Do you have any plugins in your source directory? ( D:/Jekyll/ga_blog ) I do not think so. I just generated a new project so nothing that is automatically generated is there

There seems to be two separate directories here:

  • c:/Ruby26-x64/lib/ruby/gems/2.6.0/gems/jekyll-4.0.0/
  • c:/ruby26-x64/lib/ruby/gems/2.6.0/gems/jekyll-4.0.0/

Windows is case-insensitive. So not sure how this happened…
Either ways, the gem program is mapped to look into just c:/ruby26-x64/lib/ruby/gems/2.6.0. So if you can manually delete c:/Ruby26-x64/lib/ruby/gems/2.6.0 (Notice the Capital R), things might work as expected…

Are you sure you did not do multiple installations of Ruby / Jekyll…?

Thanks.

I change the c:/Ruby26-x64 for c:/ruby26-x64 and it works.

Sitll my question of How do you uninstall jekyll on windows10? I cannot find any web that explains that! is there for anyone.

gem uninstall jekyll
