Hello friends, I am assigned the task to learn Rails. But my company firewall prevents the gems update through net and it is not possible. Hence I downloaded rails-1.1.6.zip. But it doesn''t have anything like setup or no document on how to install it. I am searching the net also, but none is giving about stand-alone, all are giving a round about answer as Instant rails. So Can someone, let me know how to proceed further(install) in stand-alone package? Thanks in advance. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I guess a 58MB can be a hefty download if on dial-up though. I have installed rails from the downloaded gem so I know it works but can''t remember the steps. I''ll see if I can look into it. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Thanks in advance.Download the Rails gem instead of the .zip. Then install like this: $ gem install rails-1.1.6.gem --local Rails has a number of dependencies that you''ll need to download as gems and install as well. activerecord, active-support, etc. You can probably find the listing on rubyforge.org. Just download and install the gems the same way. You could have them install automatically with --include-dependencies, but then it would try to fetch them from the net which wouldn''t work for you. Of course you have to have rubygems installed, which you can get from rubyforge.org (This is assuming you''re using *nix. If you''re running Windows, I have no idea.) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
