Configuring the Server (Ruby on Rails: Up and Running 1st Edition)

Hi everybody, I am trying to configure the server so that WEBrick runs on a different Port and IP Address. The Book Ruby on Rails: Up and Running 1st Edition says to change script/server

OPTIONS = {         :port => 3030,         :ip => "0.0.0.0",         :environment => "development",         :server_root => File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/../ public/"\ ),         :server_type => WEBrick::SimpleServer }

What I see in script/server is:

require File.expand_path('../../config/boot', __FILE__) require 'commands/server'

How do I configure the server?

I know there is a 2nd Edition of Ruby on Rails: Up and Running but I only have the 1st Edition for now.

Thanks,

Sze

It's probably not advisable to change script/server.

You can change the port and IP address using command line parameters.

--port to change the port --binding to change the IP address

Or check out the help to see a list of all available options:

# ruby script/server --help
