Re: [Rails] What Gives? If Rails is so good why is it so hard to install it?
I’m on Macs and I found it pretty easy to set up. I remember in the beginning some version hell with the various Gems but that seems to have settled down for me. Maybe I can install a Ubuntu on Parallels on the Mac and see if we can guide you through this (assuming I can get it to work on Ubuntu). What version of Ubuntu are you working with?

Let me re-phrase that, Parallels is downloading 13.04 desktop so let’s work with that version, shall we?

Re: [Rails] What Gives? If Rails is so good why is it so hard to install it?
More: followed http://gorails.com/setup/ubuntu/13.10 (using the choice of rvm) Worked like charm. As they say, do that! Note: Don’t install apt-get ruby or apt-get rails as they will get you older versions. The rails version is 2.3 which is REALLY old. Follow the guide. Then make an app. Do: rails new test1 It will create an app and then run bundle install. This came back with an error telling me I had to install a certain gem. Do what it says and install it (it gives the command line) and then bundle install again. Had to do this about 3 times. Finally when you get a clean bundle, run: rails s to start a server. Point the browser to http://0.0.0.0:3000 and see it’s working And as you can see from my previous post’s timestamp, this only took about 40 minutes to go from nothing to (i) completely new install of Ubuntu to (ii) ruby/rails installed with (iii) a basic app On Dec 29, 2013, at 12:06 AM, Scott Eisenberg sco...@btrtrucks.com wrote: Let me re-phrase that, Parallels is downloading 13.04 desktop so let’s work with that version, shall we?

Re: [Rails] What Gives? If Rails is so good why is it so hard to install it?
I use a script called RailsReady, which sets up a fresh OSX/Ubuntu/CentOS installation with Homebrew, RVM, Ruby, all supporting libraries, Bundler, Passenger, Rails, Git. https://github.com/joshfng/railsready I've used it 100 times, and it has never given me a problem. -- Dheeraj Kumar On Sunday, 29 December 2013 at 11:14 am, Scott Eisenberg wrote: More: followed http://gorails.com/setup/ubuntu/13.10 (using the choice of rvm) Worked like charm.
