Well, using the one you pointed me to and things are fine even with mysql installed (will remove this as disk space is V. Low).
For me jruby would be another hurdle to cross and I want to get my apps (3 done) up and running as either exe's (using ruby2exe or just exerb) so I can take 1 file no matter how large put it onto a clean client PC and have the programs run and installing themselves - aka create directories needed etc. did it once using exerb and rubyencoder to obfuscate the human readable code generated by excerb process generated a 10meg file - haha but i could transport the program file and run it on any windows (XP/2000) PC. thanks for the help. dave.
