Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to localhost:3000

[Mayada Alraegi]

I am a begginer in ROR and using this tutorial:http://ruby.railstutorial.org/chapters/a-demo-app#sec-deploying_the_demo_app

to get a head start I got every thing working fine(installation ....) but I went to chapter 2 for the demo appliaction

I can't get see the output on my local server for 

http://localhost:3000/users

instead I got this google chrom message

Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to localhost:3000

any help please?

it seems a trivial issue but it took a toll on me since I am just a new ROR programmer

What do you see in the terminal window when you start the server?

Looks like the server didn't start. It should happen on all browsers not only on chrome. 

Follow the section 1.2.5 of same tutorial and check whether the server starts it's execution without throwing any error. You should do this:-

$ rails server
=> Booting WEBrick
=> Rails application starting on http://0.0.0.0:3000
=> Call with -d to detach
=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server
