When your http://localhost:3000 comes up, what do you see if you follow the link "About_your_application's_environment"?
I get: Ruby version 1.8.7 (powerpc-darwin9.7.0) RubyGems version 1.3.4 Rack version 1.0 Rails version 2.3.3 Active Record version 2.3.3 Action Pack version 2.3.3 Active Resource version 2.3.3 Action Mailer version 2.3.3 Active Support version 2.3.3 Application root /Users/rick/hello Environment development Database adapter sqlite3 Database schema version 0 Also, using your app_controller.rb and views/app/greeting.rhtml in this environment does the right thing in response to http://localhost:3000/app/greeting.
