I am brand new to Ruby and Ruby on Rails, and I already have e-novatove WAMP set up and running perfectly for PHP/MySQL development. Can I set this up to use Ruby without messing it up for PHP/MySQL? It took me a while to get it working for PHP/MySQL and I don''t want to do anything to break it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jim -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

If you want to use Apache for your Rails-apps then you have to configure it, but Webrick does the job for development purposes too. If you want to be on the save side, backup your http.conf file for Apache before changing anything on the configuration. Christoph
