merb-gen very_flat problem?

[IndianGuru]

I am using the following configuration -

Windows XP with SP2 box
Ruby 1.8.6 (2007-09-24 patchlevel 111) [i386-mswin32]
Ruby Gem 1.3.1
Merb 1.0.1
SQLite 3.6.6
do_sqlite3-0.9.7
Mongrel 1.1.5

I created a very_flat app by typing:
C:\> merb-gen very_flat ruby-hello
Generating with very_flat generator:
←[32m [ADDED]←[0m .gitignore
←[32m [ADDED]←[0m merb.thor
←[32m [ADDED]←[0m ruby-hello.rb
←[32m [ADDED]←[0m Rakefile
←[32m [ADDED]←[0m spec
C:\>

To run my app, I did:
E:\ruby-hello>merb -I ruby-hello.rb
Loading init file from ruby-hello.rb
merb : worker (port 4000) ~ Starting Mongrel at port 4000
merb : worker (port 4000) ~ Successfully bound to port 4000

I pointed my web browser to http://localhost:4000/ but that threw a
page full of errors on the browser window. On the Mongrel window, I
got:
merb : worker (port 4000) ~ Started request handling: Mon Nov 24
09:20:39 +0530 2008
merb : worker (port 4000) ~ Controller class not found for controller
`ruby-hello'

What's the solution?

Thanks.

very_flat apps use the app name as the controller, so you shouldn't use hyphens in them (because hyphens are not valid in class names).

"because hyphens are not valid in class names" - Obvious. Wonder, what
I was thinking then!!

Thanks Yehuda for the quick reply.
