Rails server not starting and giving error messages

[Aniruddha Barapatre]

My current ruby version is ruby 2.0.0p247 (2013-06-27 revision 41674) [x86_64-darwin13.0.0] and rails version is 4.0.0

Every time I run any rails command I get following message first:

    /Users/aniruddhabarapatre1/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247@global/gems/bundler- 1.3.5/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:216: warning: Insecure world writable dir /usr/local in PATH, mode 040777

I was able to create new rails app, but when I start the server using

    rails server or rails s

I get following message ---

/Users/aniruddhabarapatre1/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247@global/gems/bundler-1.3.5/lib/bundler/runtime.rb:216: warning: Insecure world writable dir /usr/local in PATH, mode 040777

I'm stuck on this since last 2 days and would greatly appreciate any help. Just want to start with Rails and create some apps.
But this initial setup is frustrating. 

[Fahad Idrees]

you can change the port of the server to listen.

rails server -p 3001 or open the terminal and type lsof -i tcp:portnumber. kill the process and restart again..

If the error persist than delete the .pid file inside the project directory and restart again.

I hope i will work fine.

Fahad,

Thanks for the response. I tried changing port but getting same error.

As for .pid file, I'm not sure what it its. I tried searching in the project folder but couldn't find it.

I don't use a Mac but that appears to be warning you that the folder
mentioned can be written to by any user. Whether that is normal for a
Mac I don't know. As far as rails is concerned it is just a warning.

Did you get any errors when you ran bundle install?

Do you get the above error with the application as generated by 'rails
new' or have you made some changes?

Post the first few lines of environment.rb, making sure it is clear
which is line 5, where the error is occurring.

Colin

[Aniruddha Barapatre]

Colin,

Created another new project with no errors. Although if I do ---

   bundle show rails 

or any gem file, it couldn't locate gemfile.

This is what I have in my environment.rb

# Load the Rails application.

require File.expand_path('../application', __FILE__)

# Initialize the Rails application.

Profile::Application.initialize!

Are you running that from within the rails application folder (the
same folder from which you run bundle install and rails s)?

It is pointless showing us that as you no longer have the crash there.

[Aniruddha Barapatre]

I tried running bundle show rails from my project, parent and home folder. Everytime I got same message.

I asked that you not top post.

Go to the top level of your rails application (the folder where you
have successfully run bundle install and rails s).
Run bundle install from there. Then run bundle show rails. Copy the
complete sequence of commands and results here.

Not sure what you really mean by top post. I'm not doing this on purpose. I'd avoid this if I know what exactly it is.

I could run bundle install successfully but not rails server even once and get those above message.

Difficult, because you do not provide the information I ask for. I
asked you to -

Though now you say that you have not managed to run the server, though
earlier you said you had no errors with the new project. Anyhow I
assume that bundle install does work, since you have not said
otherwise, so run the commands above and post the results here please.

I think we've some miscommunication over here.

I created a new rails app -- rails new dummy

then went inside that folder and ran command -- bundle install

If I give cmd -- rails server, it runs successfully.

Although if I go back to my earlier app Profile, I am still unable to start server.

OK, now I understand. So the problem is something to do with your
other app. Does it use Devise? I ask because googling for
rescue in execute_if_updated
shows a number of people having that problem with Devise. See
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16653431/devise-not-working-with-rails-4-0rc1
for example.

Googling for error messages can often be useful.

[Aniruddha Barapatre]

Thanks Colin. It helped a lot.
It seems I had issues in my config/route file.

I had created a new home page and had defined 'home' method.

This code was causing further issues -- 

  route to: "profile#home"
