Newbie Rails problem -- ApplicationController not loading

Rails
1

I am at new at Ruby & Rails.

I am trying to follow the “make a todo list” tutorial and hitting a
weird problem.

When i try to go to localhost:3000/todo/

The file
/var/www/Todo/app/controllers/todo_controller.rb
gets loaded

class TodoController < ApplicationController
  model :todo

  def index
   render_text("This is the index")
  end
end

I don’t get anything in my browser.

I get errors about “undefined class/module Hand” and I don’t see the
word ‘Hand’ anywhere.

It doesn’t look like 'ActionController" is getting loaded and I have
don’t have a clue how to fix this. (I using running on debian)

Any hints?
