Hi Rob,

Thanks to you and Curt H. for a most important Rails support  
system.

1. Upgraded to InstantRails 2 today 30/12/2007.

2. Mongrel wont run.

3. No SCGI\_Rails file in my previous app’s root or public subdirectory  
as stated in “How to Upgrade Notes”.  
“The way SCGI\_Rails is implemented has changed. In Instant Rails  
preview2,  
the SCGI Rails Runner (“scgi\_rails”) was physically placed in your  
app’s  
“public” subdirectory, and a startup cmd file (“start\_scgi.cmd”) was  
placed  
in your app’s root directory.”

4. No “Configure SCGI Settings …” button on my IR interface as stated  
in the notes.  
“For each Rails application, select it and press the button  
“Configure SCGI Settings…””

5. The normal Apache and Windows config file options are on the IR  
interface as before and I have updated these.

6. Am I missing something basic? (apologies if I am) Help!

Regards
