I am trying to install ruby on rails on cygwin but have hit a roadblock while creating a test app e.g.,
rails new my_test_app
Looks like my install (ruby 1.9.3p429 (2013-05-15) [i386-cygwin], rails 3.2.13, gem 2.0.6, rake 10.1.0) had a gem missing -> sqlite3-ruby. Now the header file (sqlite3.h) is not found and I cannot specify config options which gem understands. Can someone please help me out ?
$ rails new test_ror_app1

An error occurred while installing sqlite3 (1.3.7), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install sqlite3 -v '1.3.7'` succeeds before bundling.
This was done successfully as can be seen below :
$ gem install sqlite3 -v '1.3.7'
Successfully installed sqlite3-1.3.7-x86-mswin32-60

When I retry the creation the new test app, the same error as above (first) repeats.
Please help me solve this. TIA.
