Description:
The 'rails new' command creates a new Rails application with a default
directory structure and configuration at the path you specify.
You can specify extra command-line arguments to be used every time
'rails new' runs in the .railsrc configuration file in your home directory.
Note that the arguments specified in the .railsrc file don't affect the
defaults values shown above in this help message.
Example:
rails new ~/Code/Ruby/weblog
This generates a skeletal Rails installation in ~/Code/Ruby/weblog.
See the README in the newly created application to get going.
As you can see s command does not exist and rails g scaffold doesn't work as well, it gives same output.
More info:
I have installed rails and ruby and devkit correctly with no errors.
I typed
rails new testproject
and it worked fine, the testproject was created successfully.
I just can't type rails s.
After you run rails new appname, you need to cd appname before you can run server, console, etc. From your app root, you'll see a bin/rails, which is loaded when you're in your app directory and sets up all the app-specific commands via Rails::Commands. To avoid the opposite problem you're having, it also cleverly disallows creating a Rails app inside your Rails app.

I am following a long a tutorial and get the following output when I run rails s. I am able to use rail new.
I have tried both rails server and rails s. Also confirmed I ran bundle install prior to using rail s.

This generates a skeletal Rails installation in ~/Code/Ruby/weblog.
I have attempted this on both redhat distribution and amazon linux.
If nothing really helps, try to run the server with the absolute path.
First, find out where your rails command is located:
which rails
I'm using MacOS which gives me
alex#Alexs-MBP ~ % which rails
/Users/alex/.rbenv/shims/rails
Let's say your application directory (where the Gemfile etc. is) is located at
/Users/alex/Desktop/app
You can now cd into that directory and simultaneously call the rails program with
cd /Users/alex/Desktop/app && /Users/alex/.rbenv/shims/rails s
Just replace both paths before and after the '&&' with your correct paths.
Otherwise, make sure to be in a directory of an actual rails application before you start the server.
Hope this helps :)
Cheers,
Alex
I'm trying to learn Ruby on Rails, in some other questions I read sometimes it's a problem with the Webrick server.
I think this time it has to do with the directory path. I am learning with an online course, so I think I need to stay with Webrick, if possible! My Rails version is 5.0.0.1
When I try to open a new server, using the command rails server this message appears:

How can I fix it?
You need to change directory into the path of your application and then start the server.
If you haven't created an app yet, you need to do that first using rails new nameofapp
To change directory do this by running cd path/path/app and change the path to the correct path, and the app to the correct app name.
Then run rails server or rails s to start the server and go to http://localhost:3000 in your browser
I have forked an existing rails project and have run the following:
bundle install
rake db:setup
rails server
The application is up and running, however when I have to add a migration as follows:
rails generate migration CreateCategories

That is, it says that I have to create an application first. Isn't it possible to generate a migration in an existing project?
Note: I get this only when I'm modifying an existing project, when I create a new project it works fine.

Please note i am in the correct directory and I've have previously run the started the server.
Which directory are you in? Running rails server will return the syntax banner you pasted unless the file config.ru is in the same directory.
If you're using Rails 4+, regenerate your app's bin/ directory executables:
rake rails:update:bin
These are versioned like any other source code, rather than stubs that are generated on demand with bundler. Using the regenerated executable should solve the problem.
I cloned a Rails 4.2.0 application (github.com/hackcentral/hackcentral), and I went to run 'rails server', but I got the default not-in-Rails-application error message (outputted below). Any suggestions?

I just cloned that repo and experienced the same problem. It looks like they didn't push their bin directory which is why the rails command isn't working as you expect. To fix, just cd into the directory and run the following
rake rails:update:bin
This will create the bin directory along with the relevant files. Cheers!
