Instantrails users - Feb 2007 - setting up ruby on rails

Hi, I''ve been having some problems setting up ruby on rails, it
installed
fine but when I get to the part where ''manage rails
applications'' and then
check cookbook and click on ''start with mongrel'' another
window opens for a
few seconds then closes and when I go to the my cookbook website it says "
''502 Proxy Error'' - The proxy server received an invalid
response from an
upstream server. The proxy server could not handle the request *GET
/<http://www.mycookbook.com/>
*. Reason: *Error reading from remote server*

------------------------------
Apache/1.3.33 Server at www.mycookbook.com <admin at localhost> Port 80
"
And I''m not sure how to fix it
Help!!!

What you should do is to manually open a console window using the Instant
Rails menu command "Rails Applications > Open Ruby Console Window",
then
navigate into the base "cookbook" directory, and run the command
"mongrel_rails start".

Now when the error occurs, the window will stick around and you can read the
error message.

Hi Curt
thanks for the help
I tried mongrel_rails start but I didn''t get any error messages, it
just
says
"Starting Mongrel listening at 0.0.0.0:3000
Starting Rails with development environment ...
Rails loaded.
Loading any Rails specific GemPlugins
Signals ready. INT => stop (no restart).
Mongrel available at 0.0.0.0:3000
Use Ctrl-C to stop"

And then nothing happens, I tried going to the mycookbook website again but
it still didn''t

work and when i tried mongrel rails restart I got "!!!PID file
log/mongrel.pid does not

exist. Not running? restart reported an error"

I''m not sure what to do now
Hopefully you might!
Thanks
