After several weeks of messing with Ruby on Rails on Ubuntu I made this 34 pages PDF installation tutorial which covers:
- Ruby on Rails default installation (Ruby 1.9.2, Rails 3.1, WEbrick web server, SQLite3 database) - Ruby on Rails advanced installation (Ruby 1.9.2, Rails 3.1, Apache web server, MySQL database)
I am total beginner with Ruby on Rails (and a beginner with Ubuntu Linux) - coming from Windows web development - so I've made this tutorial as detailed as possible so others like me can use it without a problem.
You can get the PDF file from here:
I will update the tutorial from time to time as new Ruby, Rails and Ubuntu/Mint will come out (the PDF file will have the same name always).
If you find it useful please tell to others too (in RoR groups, forums and other social media places).
I am open to suggestions/improvements of this tutorial.
Thank you, Mircea
