But before going into the problem, let me give you a brief on the setup of Ruby on Rails in my system. I have installed RoR ( I have installed InstantRails-2.0-win.zip. downloaded from http://instantrails.rubyforge.org.) set up in 'D' directory and the path is something like D:\RoR. I had created a folder D:\rails_projects where I had setup an application skeleton using the command (@command prompt), D:\rails_projects>rails MyProj This had created the application skeleton where the standard rails application directories were created. Now, my problem is that, in the book it had mentioned that I can start the server by typing command, ruby script/server Webrick But I am receiving this message ----- > ruby: No such file or directory -- script/server (LoadError) I believe I am at wrong directory location when I am giving this command. Can anybody let me know which directory location, I should be at when i am giving this command? I hope I am being clear in stating my problem, but if I have missed anything or if more clarification is needed, please let me know. Many Thanks!! Maddy I will endorse everything Colin Law said.  I use InstantRails (when I have to be on windows).  You need to move your app to d:\ror\rails_apps\MyProj After doing that the bring up InstantRails.exe and go to the I button it displays.  Select manage rails applications.  In that window select your app and tell it to start it with mongrel or webrick and it should bring it up.  You will have to have created your database before doing this using whatever method your tutorial describes. Its all a lot faster and (to me) easier on Ubuntu but IR works.
