I''ve installed Ruby using the one-click installer for Windows. As said, I downloaded the zip package for RoR and unzipped it to my local hard disk. There is no main install.rb for RoR, but there is one install.rb for Actionmailer, Actionpack, Activerecord, ActiveResource, Activesupport. How to I install RoR then? Should I install each module separately by running ''ruby install.rd'' in each directory? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

You should: - install Ruby - Download rubygems and run setup.rb - Install Rails from rubygems with: $ [sudo] gem install rails -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

The reason I downloaded the zip package is because my home connection is slow, only 52 kbps. So, I usually download anything that is large from somewhere else like office, school or internet cafe, and then install it at home. I could download and install RubyStack from http://bitnami.org/stack/rubystack. But in that case I can''t learn the manual setup and the packages included are not always latest, I believe. Can anyone help on this account? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
