begginer , need help with ruby installation(cmd)

[Mohammed Rashid]

I have downloaded git, ruby installer etc. I am following a tutorial on
how to installing Ruby on windows.Using cmd on Windows, After installing
devkit in the Ruby200x64 folder, I installed it successfully, created a
"testapp" folder and used the "bundle exec rails server" command and
everything shows up as it shows up on the tutorial including "Rails
applications starting in development on http://0.0.0.0:3000". However
mine shows an extra line underneath that says it is listening to every
server conditioner using 127.0.0.1 binding option. Now when he runs it
in the tutorial "localhost:3000" on the address bar works. On mine, it
does not. I am at the very last part but stuck for hours. Somebody
please help!

Yo say

..created a "testapp" folder and used the "bundle exec rails server" command ...

You should create a Rails application by running:

rails new your_rails_app_name

Then navigate to the created Rails app in Windows command prompt (terminal):

cd path/to/your_rails_app_name

And only now you should execute in the terminal:

rails s

and navigate to http://localhost:3000 in your browser.

See Rails Guides that will help you to start.

I wouldn't recommend CMD on Windows. Use GITBASH instead. It works really well and uses *nix commands like the books. Open one GiTBash instance for running your Rails server and the other for any of your functions.

http://installrails.com/ really helped get me going. Don't forget your sanity check!

I believe the problem on windows is that 'localhost' may not be bound correctly in whatever windows uses for a hosts file. I saw some folks having similar problems at a recent meetup but never did get a chance to chase it down.
