Question

I’m starting my adventure with Ruby on Rails and as IDE I choose Netbeans. It has bundled server Webrick and it had worked good. But after some changes in my first application it gives me internal error 500 – but nothing shows in console. And older actions give the same result.

How can I find where the problem is? I work on Ubuntu system.

What you can also do is add the following line to your controller ‘application.rb’:

ActiveRecord::Base.logger = Logger.new(STDOUT) 

Then you will get debugging output in WEBrick’s ‘Output’ window within Netbeans.
