Hi Tino, Thanks for using VirtualRails :) you're right, there was a mistake in our documentation, now the Rails version mentioned vor virtualrails 1.1 will be everywhere 2.3.4, and we will soon release a new version with rails 2.3.5 rails. with the actual 1.1 version, you can open a terminal and run the following command : sudo gem install rails --version 2.3.5 it works just fine, and you will have the followinf output : virtualra...@jay ~ $ sudo gem install rails --version 2.3.5 [sudo] password for virtualrails: Successfully installed activesupport-2.3.5 Successfully installed activerecord-2.3.5 Successfully installed actionpack-2.3.5 Successfully installed actionmailer-2.3.5 Successfully installed activeresource-2.3.5 Successfully installed rails-2.3.5 6 gems installed Installing ri documentation for activesupport-2.3.5...
