I just started using Rails a few days ago, and I’m having trouble with terminal commands. The textbook I am reading keeps telling me to run Terminal commands while having a Rails server running. This doesn’t seem possible because the terminal just keeps outputting information about the server instead of prompting new commands, i.e. rake test. Is there a command I need to input to force the terminal to prompt my commands once I start the rails server?
Usually you will just start a second Terminal window or tab and run the commands your book mentions in there. It will use the same database, but not the same process your server is running in.
