Version Confusion

Hi All,

I've taken a step back after my last post and I'm reviewing what I have installed before looking for newer correct tutorials.

I installed everything initially last weekend (15/09/2012) including Ruby, RoR and RubyMine. I've just opened a Command Prompt on my win 7 64bit box and ran:

rails --version

which to my surprise returned 2.3.14

I then ran:

gem install rails

Which output:

Successfully installed rails-3.2.8 1 gem installed Installing ri documentation for rails-3.2.8... Installing RDoc documentation for rails-3.2.8...

Then running rails --version again still outputs 2.3.14

I'm a bit confused why a new install (following the instructions here http://rubyonrails.org/download) seems to have installed a very old version.

How do I get the latest install?

Cheers,

Jam

1) Did you try shutting your command window and opening a new one and then typing rails --verson?

2) Post the value of your PATH environment variable.

Hi 7stud,

1) Did you try shutting your command window and opening a new one and then typing rails --verson?

I did a couple of times, does the same even after a reboot.

2) Post the value of your PATH environment variable.
