Hi Hassan, There was a sudden power outage and therefore Webrick couldn't be shutdown gracefully. On machine restart, I got the exact same error as Gordons, however, my Ruby is 1.8.7 and I'm on a WinXP machine. Additionally, I found that none of my browsers (IE/Firefox) can connect to any website.
I would be thankful if you can explain step-by-step how to find out whether another instance of Webrick is running and how to shut it down. Of course, I tried browsing to 127.0.0.1:3000, but my browsers have been affected, so the page cannot be displayed. Thanks in advance. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
