title: I'm getting "found character that cannot start any token while scanning for the next token"
body: <p>I have been running Ruby on Rails on my laptop for about a month now, but when I wanted to run the server in this instance (and it was working fine a few hours ago) I now receive this message.  How can I get the server to run again please? </p>
