Can't create new project in Ruby on Rails

After insatlling rails through rvm, when i create new project

rails new project_name

creats project with name "new" not with "project_name", but folder contain all project files, after that i try to start server with command

rails server or rails s

instead of the starting server, create folder "server" or "s" with project files.

ruby 1.8.7 rails 2.3.14 I need this version of ruby and rails.

OS Ubuntu 11.10

What i must to do?

Solution

  • For rails versions before 3.0 the rails command is used only for creating a new application

    rails APP_NAME

    Then you use script/server to run the dev server

    In newer versions of rails you use the rails command to do many things like create app, run server, etc...

    If you are creating a new app you would be better off on ruby 1.9.2 and rails 3.1

    If you need to run 2.3 - better invest in a good book that targets that version
