Hi, This Newbie to Mac and Rails needs some help. I have some rails apps made using instantrails in windows, and have been trying to setup a mac as a developing machine to continue developing them. Using Leopard and installed mac ports and Xcode. I am getting the following errors after I browse to [http://0.0.0.0:3000](http://0.0.0.0:3000): ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches “/recipe/list” with {:method=\>:get}): /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.2.2/lib/ action\_controller/routing/recognition\_optimisation.rb:66:in `recognize_path' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.2.2/lib/ action_controller/routing/route_set.rb:386:in `recognize’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.2.2/lib/ action\_controller/dispatcher.rb:182:in `handle_request' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.2.2/lib/ action_controller/dispatcher.rb:110:in `dispatch\_unlocked’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.2.2/lib/ action\_controller/dispatcher.rb:123:in `dispatch' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.2.2/lib/ action_controller/dispatcher.rb:122:in `synchronize’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.2.2/lib/ action\_controller/dispatcher.rb:122:in `dispatch' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.2.2/lib/ action_controller/dispatcher.rb:132:in `dispatch\_cgi’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.2.2/lib/ action\_controller/dispatcher.rb:39:in `dispatch' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/bin/../lib/mongrel/ rails.rb:76:in `process’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/bin/…/lib/mongrel/ rails.rb:74:in `synchronize' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/bin/../lib/mongrel/ rails.rb:74:in `process’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel.rb: 159:in `process_client' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel.rb: 158:in `each’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel.rb: 158:in `process_client' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel.rb: 285:in `run’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel.rb: 285:in `initialize' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel.rb: 285:in `new’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel.rb: 285:in `run' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel.rb: 268:in `initialize’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel.rb: 268:in `new' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel.rb: 268:in `run’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel/ configurator.rb:282:in `run' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel/ configurator.rb:281:in `each’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel/ configurator.rb:281:in `run' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/bin/mongrel_rails: 128:in `run’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel/ command.rb:212:in `run' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/bin/mongrel_rails: 281 /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.2.2/lib/ active_support/dependencies.rb:142:in `load\_without\_new\_constant\_marking’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.2.2/lib/ active\_support/dependencies.rb:142:in `load' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.2.2/lib/ active_support/dependencies.rb:521:in `new\_constants\_in’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.2.2/lib/ active\_support/dependencies.rb:142:in `load' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.2.2/lib/commands/servers/ mongrel.rb:64 /opt/local/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb: 31:in `gem\_original\_require’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/vendor\_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom\_require.rb: 31:in `require' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.2.2/lib/ active_support/dependencies.rb:153:in `require’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.2.2/lib/ active\_support/dependencies.rb:521:in `new_constants_in' /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.2.2/lib/ active_support/dependencies.rb:153:in `require’ /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.2.2/lib/commands/ server.rb:49 /opt/local/lib/ruby/vendor\_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom\_require.rb: 31:in `gem_original_require' /opt/local/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb: 31:in `require’ script/server:3 Rendering /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.2.2/lib/ action\_controller/templates/rescues/layout.erb (not\_found) Thanks for your help!! ---

Macports is not > necessary for a basic Rails setup. 1: sudo gem update --system 2: sudo gem install rails Step 1 updates your Rubygems to the latest version. Step 2 installs the latest version of Rails. After that you may need to install any other gems you use.
