I am following [this installation guide](https://blog.discourse.org/2013/04/discourse-as-your-first-rails-app/) to install Discourse on localhost. Everything was working as written in that guide but then as I types this command,

> bundle exec rake db:migrate

I got a message that “rake aborted”. The complete message is below, please tell how to fix this?

```
rake aborted!

I also looked at this [post](https://meta.discourse.org/t/bundle-exec-rake-db-migrate-rake-aborted-loaderror-cannot-load-such-file-memory-profiler-after-upgrade-fixed/46919) but still couldn’t figure out the problem.
