Please do not use these tutorials for getting started with Rails on Leopard or Snow Leopard. They would have you install fresh copies of Ruby, Rubygems and Rails despite the fact that the Mac OS developer tools include perfectly good versions of Ruby and Rubygems. For most people, Hivelogic's instructions are silly, pointless, and wasteful. If you have the Mac OS X developer tools installed, then you have Ruby 1.8.7. To get recent versions of Rubygems and Rails, just do sudo gem update --system and sudo gem install rails The one thing that Hivelogic's tutorials might be useful for is installing mySQL (but I'd urge you to use PostgreSQL instead -- it's a better DB). > > > On Tue, Oct 27, 2009 at 9:43 PM, Frank Guerino < Best, -- Marnen Laibow-Koser http://www.marnen.org mar...@marnen.org -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
