No freeride

Ruby
1

I know this is a newbie question, but I’ve just installed InstantRails
and
am trying to invoke the Freeride editor from the command line (using the
same command as in the run.bat provided with freeride, so that I can see
the
stack trace) and it is unable to start up. I’m on Win XP SP2, and
wondering
if anyone can point me in the right direction here. Stack trace below.
Thanks, Ike

You need to put the …\ruby\bin directory that’s in your Instant Rails
directory tree on you system path. Once you’ve done that it should
work.

When I went and killed everythging for freeride under “Documents and
Settings” it starts up fine now.

Yes, I’ve done that Curt (other .rb files invoke fine)-- but the stack
trace
seems to indicate something in the rb files which is ruby-specific,
because
it crashes out still with the following stack trace (I think it is
unable to
open a window of a project I since deleted?):
