Error Running Ruby on Rails App in Production Mode

Error Running Ruby on Rails App in Production Mode

I'm just starting to use Ruby on Rails and I am going through a tutorial
to get started. I have everything working for testing, so I can use a
rails server command in the directory to make it show the basic "Welcome
aboard" page that I want to see; however, when I change this to rails
server -e production I suddenly only see the "The page you were looking
for doesn't exist." page. When this happens, the command prompt shows:

This may seem very similar to a number of other questions, but I have
tried a number of solutions that have all failed. Thank you for any
possible help.
