Hi  
Everybody,  
I’m a newbie of Radiant. I’ ve developed a simple application  
and now I’d like to deploy it on my windows server.  
I’ve installed APACHE  
2.2, MONGREL, MONGREL\_SERVICE as the book “Agile web development with  
rails”  
suggests.  
Unfortunately I haven’t any  
success.  
When I try to create a mongrel service running  
this command:

> mongrel\_rails service::install -e production -p 4000 -c  
> d:\ProveRails\radiant06

I receive this error

!!! The path  
you specified isn’t a valid Rails application.  
service::install reported an  
error. Use mongrel\_rails service::install -h to get help.

If I start mongrel with the command:

> mongrel\_rails start -e production -p 4001 -c d:\ProveRails\radiant06  
> it’s work normally.

Can you help  
me?  
Is this a right way to deploy Radiant  
application?  
Do you have any suggestion about how can I  
simply deploy my Radiant application?

Thank’s everyboby  
Taddei Fabrizio

try cd d:\ProveRails\radiant06

mongrel\_rails service::install -N radiant -p 4000 -e production

mongrel\_rails service::start -N radiant

Hi!

I have the same error message: I tryed to run service::install from the  
directory as written in the reply but I get the same error message  
again! And tryed with two different radiant applications too!

Maybe it’s because the structure of the app folder in a radiant app is  
different from the one of a standard rails app??

Please need help!

Hi,

add the “app” folder to the tree of your radiant site, it work fine for  
me.  
Good luck!
