I think InstantRails is actually a great way to install Ruby and Rails on a Windows machine, even though it hasn't been updated since the end of 2007. I still use it for Rails development on Windows. You can use it to install a working Rails 2.0 system and then upgrade to the newest Rails from there. I believe these would be the steps to get Rails working and up-to- date, although I admit I didn't just try this: 1. Install and run InstantRails 2. Launch a command prompt from InstantRails 3. gem update --system 4. gem update rails --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
