Might sound like a stupid question I guess but rubyonrails.org is just an advert right now, which isn't a good sign.
http://rubyonrails.org
Except that they are having some domain registration problems today. It should be back up within 24 hours.
Until that is back up, it looks like http://rubyonrails.com will work for you.

install rubygems, they type "gem install rails" from the commandline. There were some domain name issues with the hosting provider today, should be cleared up in the next few hours.
You're right, they are down (today?).
GitHub ( http://github.com/rails/rails )
Or a RubyForum well written guide, working links ( http://railsforum.com/viewtopic.php?id=34 )
Or if you have Rubygems installed:
gem install rails
Looks like the site is currently having problems with its domain registrar, see here. Hopefully they should be resolved before too long and these links should work.
First you need to download Ruby www.ruby-lang.org
Rails is a Ruby gem, so after installing Ruby, in a console you would enter
gem install rails

Hey guys so I am new to everything including computers I don't know squat, nothing! I am recently trying to take ruby on rails on lynda.com. I have ran into many problems with using ruby and downloading rails I have followed allot of helpful tips which have helped but I cannot seem to get out of this loop for 6 hrs already.
I am using ruby 2.2.4 ,rails 2.4.5.1 on the other hand I don't know how to use it and when I check
rails -v
this pops up
the system cannot find the path specified
I am using windows 10 by the way. So can someone please help in detail and hoping you have the patience to work with someone who knows nothing. Thanks in advance.
I assume that you need to install ruby and rails on your windows 10 machine.
You can use rails installer for installing ruby and all other stuff related to ruby and rails using a single installation.
I have a legacy database(Progress OpenEdge) that i need to use for a myriad of reports. I have everything working with ruby 1.8.6 and rails 2.0 (odbc-adapter and odbc-rails).
Since 1.8.6 is not supported anymore and rails 2.0 is quite old i'd like to update. Is there a odbc-adapter supported on 3.2.3?
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks,
You have to put the following line in your gemfile: gem 'ruby-odbc' and then run bundle install.
i think this is what you were looking for :)
I am having the same problem except am using a legacy database called DBISAM from Elevate Software.
DBISAM does not support a lot of things. But I need to update things on the database and am not a wWindows ecosystem enthusiast.
I will look at ruby-odbc and report back to y'all
EDIT
I found using RDBI fixed my problem. gem rdbi
I would like to try ruby on rails on mac. I want to install ruby on rails, tried to find some guide for installation, and I get this:
ruby on rails official website??
It does not have a clear, I mean, well documentation for beginner to follow the steps? Or, thats all for the installation? How to start the webserver, where to store ruby files etc, ... how do I get started???
Any advise, or links or tutorials for a total ruby beginner to get started?
This is their official guide:
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started.html
You need to install xcode first though to avoid some errors. This is because some of the headers in the default ruby install on macs is incomplete without it.
Well you need GCC, which used to be with XCode only but over at ye olde GitHub, it's been packaged as a standalone. Next up you can follow either this tutorial by Katz or Dan Benjamin's guide on HiveLogic.
Keep in mind the state of the art in Ruby and Rails is fast moving so the guides might not take you all the way there. The most crucial parts are getting RVM installed properly and working and getting everything on the right version. It's not too tricky to work through, and there's probably no undocumented issues in the process now.
This is my first question here in StackOverflow :)
I've been searching for the best plugin for administrator for my Rails 2.3.11 app.
I can create my own but I have to rush my project so I decided to use these kinds of plugin.
I already searched rails_admin and active_admin. There are both good but I think that's for Rails 3 only. So I need to find some admin plugins for Rails 2.3.11.
Your ideas are much welcome :) Thanks!
Give Typus a try. It works on rails 2.3 and is quite popular, although the author isn't planning on maintaining the 2.3 version anymore.

I have assigned to use jasperserver reports in a rails application.
There is a plugin for jasperserver to use in Ruby application.
https://github.com/gunark/jasperserver-client
I want to know whether this plugin can use in my rails 3 version of application.
I've checked in railsplugin.org .But it shows "no result found".
I'l be please if u people gave me any help link.
According to the wiki, the author recommends you install it as a gem & not as a plugin. They go on to give an example of how to use the gem in a rails project on this wiki page.
I haven't used this, but your compatibility issues probably won't be with rails. Maybe the ruby version or soap4r version - but there don't seem to be any rails dependencies here.
You maybe use this simple ruby script for this => http://www.redrails.com.br/2013/03/07/ruby-client-para-rest-api-do-jasper-report-server/
