Colin,
You had referred me to this link:
For installing
in ubuntu then
http://blog.sudobits.com/2012/05/02/how-to-install-ruby-on-rails-in-ubuntu-12-04-lts/
is pretty good..
>>>
I thought it would be a good idea to learn this in a linux environment. My
apps on the web will be in Linux. I setup a virtualbox for Windows and
installed Ubuntu Server 12.04. This part I did separately as I was learning
Linux for web development.
I got all the way down to starting the WEBrick server, with everything looking
good and it said that it is running on port 3000. And I should be able to
browse to http://localhost:3000
and I get “Unable to Connect”
I tried http://localhost:3000, http://0.0.0.0:3000
also http://sandbox.dev:3000
which was shown in the terminal window.
Since, I currently only have the server and not the gui for Linux Ubuntu, I
thought I should be able to see this from my host operating system, Windows.
Also, when I installed phpmyadmin, the instructor said that we should be able
to get there using http://localhost:8080/phpmyadmin/
If I leave off the phpmyadmin, the page that comes up shows that the server is
running and I get a message that just says “It works” – a bit of code to show
that things are working.
The instructor has us install this in the folder /etc/phpadmin
but when we installed Symfony, we were supposed to use folder
/media/sf_sandbox/
I tried to get to that folder and was told I didn’t have permission. I
couldn’t use sudo cd as that just said that cd is not recognized.
So, I obviously have rvm, ruby and gems installed but nothing beyond that is
working in the way of getting a ruby on rails test app running.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Bruce

@Colin:
Railsready can be used for any environment. The only thing it installs that
is not usually used for a development environment is Passenger. Railsready is
great because it simplifies the task of installing dependencies. I've done it
manually, and this is so much more fun :)

Hi Bruce,
I can understand the problems you're going through, as I've faced them
myself. They stem from some misconceptions about the language & the
framework.
Getting started with rails is probably the easiest thing to do out of all
the language stacks available. If you're using OSX or Linux, use
https://github.com/joshfng/railsready on a fresh install of your OS, and
you're set.
I have not met that one, it seems as if it may be more geared towards
a production server than development. I believe most would not use
passenger, nginx or apache on development machines.
This one looks like a reasonable alternative tutorial for installing
