Answer 1

I have met this problem recently.

I tried out all the method mentioned above, and even restarted my computer, but still couldn't solve it!!! Then I removed the jekyll and installed a new version, it just worked.

gem uninstall jekyll & gem install jekyll (maybe you need super user priviledge).

If you really get annoyed with similar bugs, this sb method is worth a try...
