Question

I am following this tutorial and I’ve run the command ruby script\server and successfully started the server.

Now, when I run ruby script\generate controller MyTest, it says

'ruby' is not recognized as an internal or external command..

Answer 1

This error message means

• you dont’ have ruby installed (It’s on page 1 of your tutorial)

or

• ruby is not in your PATH . In that case, check if the PATH points to the folder where you have installed ruby (on Windows I think it’s PATH)

Edit:

If you look at the screenshots of the 1st page, the path to ruby is specified all the time
"c:\ruby\bin\ruby.exe" "c:\ruby\bin\gem" install rails

I did install it on my netbook – I specified to update my PATH but it didnt. After setting up my path correctly, I could type: gem install rails
