Rails Server won't complete - ruby-on-rails

I'm relatively new the coding world so apologies upfront if this is vague or i'm mis using some jargon...
I am trying to create a new application using Ruby on Rails. Having created the app, I went to run it on my local machine by typing rails server but it seems as though the server won't complete..any thoughts? I only get as far as the below and then nothing else materialises to indicate the server has successfully completed... I've tried shutting down the server and trying again but no luck
=> Booting WEBrick
=> Rails 4.2.3 application starting in development on http://localhost:3000
=> Run `rails server -h` for more startup options
=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server

however when I try to access the app using http://localhost:3000
I get this message

Did you mean http://localhost3000.org/?
It looks like app is running however I can't access it. Why ?

Terminal does not work after running rails server

after running "rails server" on my mac to start my application, my terminal does not allow me to write commands in the terminal. All I get is the following, with the problem that I can not write any commands.

Can anyone help?
You can start your server in a background:
rails server &
But, usually, this problem can be resolving by starting an additional terminal process (open new terminal window or tab). In this case, you'll be able to see server logs in runtime.

Rails server gives error when I load localhost:3000 and it's not the rack version

Before you mark this as a duplicate, know that the difference between this question and the other questions is there are no errors in the console or logs for me!

Produces a 500 internal server error: "We're sorry but something went wrong. If you are the application owner check the logs for more information."
I've tried:
changing the rack version to 1.6.2 (ruby requires >2.0)
using a different port
binding the rails server to localhost
hitting 127.0.0.1:3000, 0.0.0.1:3000, etc
Any ideas?

Terminal command "rails server"

My terminal does not return to the usual command line prompt $ after I run rails server. If I open another Bash window everything works fine.
Should I just exit the first window, or will I interrupt some process?
Thanks for the advice!
If you run rails server or rails s, you wouldn't get that prompt. You need to press Ctrl-C to shutdown the server. That instruction is present is command shell itself (=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server).
(arup~>sample_app)$ rails s
=> Booting WEBrick
=> Rails 4.0.2 application starting in development on http://0.0.0.0:3000
=> Run `rails server -h` for more startup options

Now see below, what happened when I did press Ctrl-C :

(arup~>sample_app)$
Yes when you use rails server or rails s the WEBrick server starts and keeps running it in the terminal tab you ran it on(till you interrupt it).
In Terminal Ctrl + C is used to kill/break/interrupt any process only
$ not showing means there is a process already running in that terminal and therefore you have to open a new terminal tab(Ctrl + Shift + T) and work there or break the existing ongoing process to get the $ and work in the present tab.

In other words you ideally can't or actually shouldn't use the terminal in which the server is running on, but anyways if you DO want to then this SO thread should help you
How to use same terminal window after using "rails server" command?
Hope you understood
use:
rails server -d
to start the server as daemon.

"rails server" does not work but command prompt says it has though there's no page

When I go to 0.0.0.0:3000 I get this

0.0.0.0 just means that it's listening on all addresses that the machine has. Try browsing to http://localhost:3000/ instead.
