Rails - Sep 2006 - "Resistance was futile, I have been assimulated!"

Hey All,

I''m a RoR Newbie (Web Designer/Markup Developer) and new to this group.
I''ve already noticed that the RoR community is a very cool group of
people and very friendly!

If its ok, I have a few questions.

1) I run my own Win 2000 dedicated box. What do I need to do to run RoR
apps? (What do I need to install?  I have MySQL already)

2) I installed the one-click installation of RoR on my laptop and it
worked fine.  But for some reason, now I cannot get the server to run
anymore.  I uninstalled and installed again but with no success.  Any
ideas?

3) I have zero experience in programming but RoR is changing that
quickly as its SO easy to understand and deploy.  I''m very interested
in developing my own cms but I know that may prove to be far fetched at
this point.  But to get started, what sites to you recommend  to take
tutorials?

Thanks!!

Your first stop should be http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/title/ 
rails/

Buy the book, start reading :-) If you still want to develop web  
software after that, get some books about good object-oriented  
programming and dive into Ruby itself.


Best regards

I''ve heard good reports of InstantRails
(http://instantrails.rubyforge.org/).  I
would also recommend checking out Mongrel (http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/).
