I'm using InstantRails 1.6, Rails 1.2.3, and TortoiseSVN to commit my code to the server. Now, I'd like to use the tabnav plugin: C:\applications\shop\>ruby script/plugin install svn://svn.seesaw.it/tabnav/trunk C:\applications\shop\> There is nothing happening, and no tabnav is in vendor/plugins. And I don't have webrick running. What do I do wrong? Luma ---

Luma, Humm. That's a good question. I tried that command on my Mac and all was cool. I'm assuming you ran: C:\applications\> rails shop C:\applications\> cd shop C:\applications\shop\> ruby script/plugin install svn://svn.seesaw.it/tabnav/trunk If so then you aren't doing anything wrong, so it must be something broken in you tools or other configuration. ---

Tortoise Svn doesn't work, too. I think I'll reinstall it as well as Instant Rails. Let's see if it will work then. ---

Now I reinstalled InstantRails 1.7 and TortoiseSvn successfully. The application works, and I can update the changes in my code to the server. But still, InstantRails doesn't install the plugin. C:\\>rails noidea       create       create app/controllers ... C:\\>cd noidea C:\noidea\>ruby script/plugin install svn://svn.seesaw.it/tabnav/trunk C:\noidea\> ---

I made it another way, using in a partial view. Thanks Luma
