Instantrails users - Sep 2007 - Auto-launch instant rails and app

I''m using Instant Rails for a client''s demo machine that
they''ll be taking
to a show. Can I set Instant Rails to automatically launch my application so
the user doesn''t have to deal with the Instant Rails UI at all?

thanks,

Michael

Probably the easiest thing to do would be to setup things to run as a
windows service that starts automatically.  I have a machine where I
simply configured mysql as a service and then setup mongrel as a service
(I didn''t need apache) and they just automatically run.
 
To setup MySQL to run as a service automatically on the next reboot
 
c:\>c:\InstantRails\mysql\bin\mysqld --install
 
Next to setup Mongrel as a service using the instructions at
http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/docs/win32.html
 
That should take care of it.  Hope it helps!
