Installing Ruby on Rails on ubuntu server

rubyonrails-talk

Hi, I'm a newbie in the Rubo on Rails world. I'm trying to install ruby on rails on a ubuntu server I have at home. The installation seems to be successful except that I'm getting this error when I go to public folder http://julianomoreira.kicks-ass.org/rails/myrailsapp/public/ The installation seems to have gone fine but i'm not sure if the installation should be on the /home/user folder. It doesn't seem right to me in terms of security. I'm looking for some help since I want to give ROR a try.

Thank you very much!

All I see is the index.html page that comes with Rails. So the installation was successful.

Yea, I think it was successful but it says "THe requested URL properties was not found." What does that mean?

You shouldn't be going to the public folder in your browser. If Rails is being served properly, just going to /rails/myrailsapp should get you the application.

Unfortunately, you gave no details about how you tried to install Rails, so we can't help you. Please give more information on what you did if you want help.

Thank you very much!

Best,
