Heelo Brett, thank you very much for you answer, but I don't want to loose my work. Therefor I must save the files.
Is it Ok, if I save the Projektfiles from Ruby on Rails folders and dump the databases from the MySql-Environment? Then I clean all what I have installed : Ruby on Rails (instrails + bitnami) and all what I find about MySql on the Fixdisk? After that, I run new the Installation-processes a) for Ruby on Rails b) for MySql Then I move the Rails-Projektfiles below the projekt-folder. After that I import the databases to MySql. If that ist ready, I can install Hobo, or have I first to install jruby(because in the future I want to use not ruby but rather jruby)? Or ist it better, if I install jruby before ruby on rails? Would you please write, wether my thoughts are true, or if I have any mistakes in my plan. Thank you for your help.
