Hello, I'm trying to install Rails (command: gem install rails) after I instaled Ruby in to Windows. Unfortunately, I encounter this error message (temporary disc space is set in to C: HDD):
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno::ENOSPC) No space left on device - H:/.gem/specs/gems.rubyforge.org%80/quick/Marshal. 4.8/rails-2.3.5.gemspec
What to do? How successfully run this command? Thanks
Do you have space left on H: ?

H: is some network drive which I could access only in specific location (I'm not there right now). Additionally - it has only few megabytes of free space. In result I can't use H: as my temporary drive for rails instalation.
I would like to force gem to choose C: as a temporary drive, but HOW... which command to use? I didn't find anything usable in gem helps.
Anyone could help?
TRy instant rails it works do not waste yours time still need to install we are here
Hi Rajeev, thanks. You helped me a lot. Now I have running Instant Rails, but how to force it to work together with some IDE (Aptana, Netbeans)? Error messages like "wrong gems, cannot launch mongrel server etc." appear when I'm trying to run sample application inside these tools.
dO NOT TRY ide FOR rails there is sach a no need trust me ok if stiil error come print that here
Well, you confused me a little bit ;-). Where do you write your apps? In notepad? And how do you test them?
Thanks Jan

listen Use instant rails Notepad ++ as a editor for a while take a tour of instant rails
Kannav,
I disagree there are some very very good editors for Rails, and having rails and ruby directly installed instead of using instant rails is way better option.
Jan,
You should try rubymine, is a great editor for the installation problem you where having what version of windows are you using ?
Cheers!
Emacs, for example here it is on win7:

I am using Netbeans all the time, but never come to mind using build in application server.
I simply start DOS (command) window, cd to root directory of your app and run:
ruby script\server
This will run webrick or mongrel if it is installed.

Or if you prefer and editor instead an IDE e-text editor is also very good, is textmate for windows basically ImageShack - Best place for all of your image hosting and image sharing needs running on windows 7
Hello guys, thanks for all your advices, I really appreciated them. I decided to stay with Notepad++ as an editor for now. I moved forward, but...
I created my own application directory (command: rails myapp) and I can see ruby welcome page when I put localhost:3000 in to browser. Now, I don't know how to force ruby to take in to mind my .rb file with sample code (puts "Hello world!") which I saved in to myapp directory structure. Sorry for really newbie question, but I've just started.
Thanks, Jan
Have a look at the Getting Started rails guide at http://guides.rubyonrails.org/. And the other guides for that matter.
