Instantrails users - Jul 2008 - 502 proxy error during Instant Rails 2.0 installation

Hi,

I just installed instant rails version 2.0 and installed it.
Followed the installation instructions, but getting 502 proxy error.

Followed the below procedure but getting the 502 error:
    *  In the main menu, select Rails Applications > Manage Rails
Applications...

    * Check the checkbox next to the cookbook application. 

    * Click on the Start with Mongrel button. A console window will appear. This
contains the cookbook web app being served by the Mongrel server..

    * Wait a few seconds to make sure the cookbook web app is fully initialized,
open your browser and go to:

    HTTP://www.mycookbook.com 

Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.

The proxy server could not handle the request GET /.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

Apache/1.3.33 Server at www.mycookbook.com Port 80

Any help is appreciated

Thanks

Ratna

a long shot (you never know): You may have another service currently
using port 80 (another server maybe)

Try stopping the Apache server before you start the app with Mongrel.

If that doesn''t work, let us know.  Clear your development.log before
you
start the app too.  The answer will probably lie in the messages in there.

Best regards,
