Dear All, as a complete novice i hope you wont be upset if i ask some probably pretty obvious questions. I have run and installed Ruby. Installed Instiki and run it and i get this screen: C:\Instiki>ruby instiki => Starting Instiki on http://0.0.0.0:2500 => Data files are stored in C:/Instiki/storage/2500 [2005-09-20 21:07:21] INFO WEBrick 1.3.1 [2005-09-20 21:07:21] INFO ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32] [2005-09-20 21:07:25] INFO WEBrick::HTTPServer#start: pid=432 port=2500 So all seems good. then i try and run http://localhost:2500/ in my mozilla browser and aboslutely nothing happens.The most advanced computer stuff i know is pinging my computer so i did this and it works fine. What should i do next and why doesnt this work? Maybe theres something i havent understood at all...i mean i havent made my computer a server (with apache and such) do i need to do this??! any help would be really appreciated as im getting interested in this stuff,. thanks ian __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

From what I remember about Windows I wonder if your localhost name is enabled. Try accessing instiki with http://127.0.0.1:2500/ Find out if in a hosts file c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts you have the following line. 127.0.0.1 localhost if all above is ok then I have no idea why you can''t run instiki. mj On Sep 20, 2005, at 11:33 PM, twigdip carlos wrote:> Dear All, > as a complete novice i hope you wont be upset if i ask > some probably pretty obvious questions. > I have run and installed Ruby.

Oy, this is strange. I am sorry I can''t reproduce the windows behaviour since I don''t have it at the moment but you can try to run it on port 80 (if you don''t run any other server and it looks like you don''t) use the paremeter --port=80 so your command would be like this: C:\Instiki>ruby instiki --port=80 I wonder if you have some kind of paranoid firewall but I don''t think it should prevent you from reaching any ports as a localhost. Turn off your firewall to test reaching port 2500 then. Also verify that instiki did create a storage/2500 folder good luck. mj On Sep 21, 2005, at 3:22 PM, twigdip carlos wrote:> no luck on that attempt.

It should be available in Windows XP. If you''re a bit more adventurous, try downloading and running TCPView from: http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/TcpView.html (it''s freeware).
