Hi Jay, I installed the haml gem.
Then I added gem 'haml' to the gem file. Then I ran 'bundle install' Then I generated a controller for People Then I changed the extension on the index file in the layout folder in the views folder to file extension .haml and changed its code to haml Then rebooted the server >From that point on, no pages would show up for any page, even the previous .erb pages. I just got an error message, something like 'Something is wrong, we will get back to you.' I even tried changing the listing in the gem file to gem 'haml-rails' but that didn't work either. So not sure what's up. My version of Rails was 3.0.7. So I updated it to 3.0.8, still didn't work. I've even updated to Rails 3.1 the pre version. Still no luck. Any idea why haml files are non viewable in my app. My web server is nginx. Could it be I need to add something to nginx/passenger to interpret .haml files? Would love to use haml, but thus far no luck following the standard instructions. I'm on Ubuntu 10.4 on a Linode account. Best, Pardeep.
