Ok, I'll try some of your suggestions, but let me break down my goal
here:
I decided to take on a project which requires some Ruby programming.
They use Merb on a Karmic Koala machine and a git repository. I've
always been a PHP guy, but I decided to try something new and I've
always heard a lot about Ruby, so why the hell not? I haven't had
problems with the vhosts files before on my Mac, but I agree, Linux is
always a winner ;}
All I really want to do is to pull and push code from the server to my
machine in order to work on the site. I know I have the right code,
however when I go to their site, the merb app launches. I noticed
there wasn't an index.html file, but the .htaccess was pointing to
some merb scripts.
When I first pulled the code, all I got was a blank screen instead of
the home page that I see on their live site. So, I figured I had to
configure something on my side to get it to work.
PS: I get this error when trying to install thin:
sudo gem install thin
