Rails also comes with a webserver if u cd to the project dir and type script/server If you need to maintain a rails app it might be good to learn some Ruby. Trust me there are worst things out there.

You should find what version of rails you are using because something like routing differs. -Noel > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To post to this group, send email to rubyonrails-talk@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > rubyonrails-talk+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
