Hey guys,

To give a brief explanation I am new to ruby and tried out some tutorials, anyways I managed to get the server running as localhost:3000 which displayed the usual and expected web page

then lets say I executed the command

"ruby script\generate controller hello"

and then under the views folder created hello.rhtml and inserted "Hello World" and when I go to localhost:3000/hello I get the following error

QUOTE
"We're sorry, but something went wrong.

We've been notified about this issue and we'll take a look at it shortly."


I believe the error code is 500

I really want to learn ruby and if I cant overcome this obstacle I cannot advance

Your help is very much appreciated smile.gif

Regards,
JkinsonA

1. Take a look at log/development.log file.

2. Get a good book, reading your post I can say that you have no idea what you're doing.

Hey, thanks alot for your reply, it actually helped alot

I noticed that the error was something to do with the permissions for the log file

Here is a screenshot which will tell you what is wrong

As you can see, the permission caused a warning, but the real problem is that you don't have SQLite Ruby library :

QUOTE
no such file to load -- sqlite3.


So, just install the gem

CODE
$ gem install sqlite3-ruby


The problem is that this will build native extensions and Windows really sucks as ruby/rails dev environment.

Heya, thanks alot for your input

anyways here is the latest problem, it cant seem to install the library

I had the sample problem installing sqLite 3 basically you want to grab the sqlitedll-3_6_16.zip from the Precompiled Binaries For Windows within http://www.sqlite.org/download.html and drop the extracted files into your ruby/bin directory. Also make sure you restart your server, you may also need to restart your computer.

Good Luck.
