This release of Instant Rails contains the following major
changes:
* Upgrades Rails to version 1.1.6
(other components upgraded to current release, also)
* SCGI has been replaced by Mongrel (using Apache's
mod_proxy for forward requests).
* For the development server, WEBrick has also been
replaced by Mongrel.
* Automatic RadRails configuration: if your choose
your Instant Rails "rails_apps" subdirectory as
your workspace, then all of the RadRails paths
(to ruby, rake, ri, rdoc, etc.) will be automatically
set.
Known Problems
There are two known problems: If you select the menu items
“Help > Getting Started” or “Help > Release Notes”, Instant
Rails will crash. For the time being, you can read these two
topics from the web site:
