Hi, So I finally gave up trying to start the start the backgroundrb server on windows and I am trying to use Cygwin. However, I keep bumping into errors. I installed ruby (one click installer) amd rubygems0.9.3. But when i do a ruby setup.rb to install gems, it throws an error saying taht the ruby_version variable might be uninitialized <NoMethodError>. I have no idea how to proceed in order to make this backgroundrb work on cygwin. If there are any users who have made it work on cygwin, could you please tell me which version of ruby and gems are needed and how do i install them (coz apparently, i am just hitting errors all the time). Thank You, Harini
Treat it like a completely separate environment do gem installs and updates just like you would a new machine and that should get you there.

Thats exactly what I did. But I feel I am still going wrong somewhere. Could you please tell me which versions of Ruby adn Gems would work for cygwin? I am sure that I am making some mistake there.
