Rails Error - Uninitialized Constant - ruby-on-rails

Upon setting up a new rails project I have come across the following issues on the rails s command
john-MacBook-Pro:coffee john$ rails s
/Users/john/Development/coffee/config/application.rb:10:in `<module:Coffee>': uninitialized constant Coffee::Rails::Application (NameError)
from /Users/john/Development/coffee/config/application.rb:9:in `<top (required)>'

What exactly is causing this and how do I fix it?
Thanks for looking.

# Run "rake -D time" for a list of tasks for finding time zone names. Default is UTC.
# config.time_zone = 'Central Time (US & Canada)'

# config.i18n.default_locale = :de
end
end

You seem to have called your application 'coffee'. This means that you have a module Coffee declaration in your config/application.rb file.
Rails uses the coffee-rails gem to support coffee script in a rails application and this also declares a module Coffee.
You have inadvertently created a name clash with your choice of application name.

warning: shebang line ending with \r may cause problems. rails aborted

I am setting up an existence Rails project using rbenv on Ubuntu 18.04. rbenv version is 1.1.2-11-gc46a970.
I have added .ruby-version file in the project root. When I run rbenv version I get the correct version of Ruby.
Now the issue is when I run rails s or rails test:system I get the following error:
/home/user/.rbenv/versions/2.5.0/bin/ruby: warning: shebang line ending with \r may cause problems rails aborted!

(See full trace by running task with --trace)
But I am unable to get any clue how to fix this (as I am new to Ruby Rails.)

upgrading ruby 1.8.7 to 1.9.3 load error

I'm getting a load error when trying to upgrade to ruby 1.9.3 "small steps". There is a load error, but I am autoloading the lib directory. Does anyone know why this is happening?

Ruby 1.9 changed the default load path so it's often necessary to replace that with:
require_relative '../lib/my-app/my-app'
That way you can specify exactly where it is without having to change the $LOAD_PATH configuration.

Undefined variable or method 'config' for main:Object in application.rb for Rails 4?

I have come here as a last resort. I can't find a solution anywhere else on the internet. Thanks very much for your help. I am creating an application in rails 4, and I am loosely following along an old tutorial, which can be found here https://github.com/schneems/reddit_on_rails
When I try to run
rails generate devise user
I get this error message:

The stack trace shows you are having a problem with the linecache19 gem. A Google search shows that others have encountered the same problem: it seems to be an incompatibility between that gem and Ruby 1.9.3.
Is linecache19 in your Gemfile? If so, can you just remove it? (Do you really need it?) If it's not in the Gemfile, look in Gemfile.lock and see if it's listed as a dependency of one of your other gems.
