Where is my "rails" folder?

[laredotornado1 (laredotornado)]

Hi,

I'm working through the tutorial for the site and am on step five
(http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/TutorialStepFive). At the
beginning it says, "Go to your rails folder". But no where in the
tutorial do I remember creating one, and I can't find a rails folder
within my project. Where is this supposed to be?

I'm using the latest version of Ruby on Rails on Fedora Core Linux.

Thanks, - Dave

They mean the folder you created when you typed "rake MyProject". So the "MyProject" folder.

It's also commonly referred to as RAILS_ROOT as well...

He means the top level folder of your application. The folder created
when you ran “rails myproject” not “rake myproject”
