Hi Guys: I'm new to Rails , I just installed it today, and tried to deploy an app on the localhost, when i run the rails server i got it like the screen-shot, there's no error message, WEbrick does not start , it automatically "quits", tried many times, what probable causes could there be , and how to solve it? Many Thanks. Rails version 3.2.1 Ruby 1.9.3

Looking at the screenshot it seems you created an application in a path with spaces (Documents and Settings)

Please avoid spaces in the path. Please create another application in a directory without spaces.

If you installed RailsInstaller, you can create your application inside C:\Sites directory.

Hope that helps.

Yes, and stop programming rails under Windows =) https://www.virtualbox.org/ with Linux is the best choice.

Thank you for your reply, the 'space' isn't the cause of it, run on the root folder of the disk, same.check the new screen-shot.

What is the result of:

ruby script\rails server

Also, do you have any Firewall or something that could be blocking?

We need more information about your environment:

gem env

For some reason webrick is not starting properly, so there must be something in your setup that is producing that.

Can you start a console instead?

ruby script\rails console
