Windows development and Linux hosting

Hi All,

I am learning about the rails hosting in linux. My development environment is Windows, is there a way to convert the rails application from Windows to linux?

I was unable to display my test rails page because of the path problem and then version problem etc., I am taking baby steps and getting one by one resolved, but got stuck in the following error? Can someone help me?

[Wed Jul 11 12:53:23 2007] [error] [client 164.57.112.139] Premature end of script headers: ../dispatch.cgi ../config/boot.rb:29: undefined method `gem' for main:Object (NoMethodError)   from ../config/environment.rb:11   from ../dispatch.cgi:3 [Wed Jul 11 12:54:29 2007] [error] [client 164.57.112.139] Premature end of script

Based on the error, I thought it is not finding the gem so I went and added the linux path to ruby binary folder as the first line of code and is still giving me the error.

Are you running script/server and looking at the result? That should be all you need - you also generally only need to restart that server if you change something outside the app folder.

script/server should run Webrick, which is usually too simple to break. Your errors appear to be CGI integration errors. Save the hard stuff for Linux!

I tested with script/server and it worked fine. Then I have change the .rb file to add linux specific ruby location and in the linux server it is failing.
