After installing Ruby on Rails on a Windows Vista machine, I get the following error when attempting to execute the dispatch.fcgi script from command line (the same occurs when the script is executed in the context of the real FastCGI server):

I've gotten this to work succesfully on another W2k3 machine.

If you know what this problem is due to, can you please comment?

Thank you for your time,

Mike
