Go into the directory that has python.exe and copy and paste it into a new file named python2.exe. Fixed!

Answer 2

Look at https://github.com/juthilo/run-jekyll-on-windows/. It helps with Jekyll problems on Windows, including Pygments (from https://github.com/juthilo/run-jekyll-on-windows/#install-python-environment and up).

Answer 3

I had the same issue. Seems there's a problem in Pygments.rb 0.5.1. By rolling back to Pygments 0.5.0 the error disappeared.

gem uninstall pygments.rb --version ">0.5.0"
gem install pygments.rb --version "=0.5.0"

Hope this helps.

Just for a reference to those who meet the same problem like me. I had python 2.7.6 installed first and then installed python 3.3.0. So re-install python 2.7.6 fixed the problem for me. pygments.rb (0.5.4) Python 2.7.6 ruby 1.8.7 (2012-02-08 patchlevel 358) [universal-darwin12.0] jekyll 1.4.3 OSX 10.8.5
