Hello, I'm using instantrails 2 to develop RubyOnRails projects on
windows and need to update my ruby version to 1.8.7 (I'm still using
1.8.6). I downloaded ruby 1.8.7 here http://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.8/ruby-1.8.7.zip
and unzipped files in the ruby folder of instantrails but when I check
"ruby -v" I still got 1.8.6 (I tried a gem update and same thing, some
gems won't update because they detect ruby 1.8.6 and not 1.8.7).

Any idea what I'm doing wrong??
I have done exactly what you describe and it did work. Did the files from the zip end up in the ruby/bin and ruby/lib folders? As this is Windows you probably should reboot if you havn't.

Reviewing I think I find I did something different. I downloaded binaries from http://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/binaries/mswin32/ruby-1.8.7-p330-i386-mswin32.zip and they worked fine. As someone said what you have downloaded is the source and you really do not need that.
