I’d just use the Windows installer which does all of that for you:

Go into control panel and find the System Properties dialog. It hasn’t
changed much since xp although its location is variable. Click the
advanced tab and then the environment variables button. If you want it
for just you, change the one under user variables, if you want it to be
system wide (such as if you’re doing cgi or something and another user
needs to find ruby), put it under system variables.

Just append ;c:\ruby\bin to which ever one you want to change and close
things out. The semicolon before c:\ must be there.

Note that when a command prompt opens, it gets a copy of the environment
at that time. So if you do this, your currently open dos boxen won’t
see it. You’ll have to open new ones.

Rerun the RubyInstaller. That’s the easiest way.

Doing it by hand depends on your Windows version (XP and Windows
Vista/7 are noticeably different in doing this manually).

A method of solution is perfect if we can forsee from the start,
and even prove, that following that method we shall attain our aim.

Honestly, i was just trying to help and it didn’t seem (to me) as i was
misunderstood.
And in case I hurt your feelings, i’m really sorry for being such a
“german oss zealot”, i will go out and hug a tree for you, now!

Send the errors, maybe one of us can help then.
Also some info about what windoofs version you are using, would be
helpful, as someone already pointed out, it varies between different
versions.

You can also test the commands on the shell (cmd.exe) without changing
your system configuration, with the SET command:
(out of my head, so have some salt ready, but should give you the
point).

append new dir to %path

SET path=“%path;c:\ruby\bin”

print/verify your changes

echo %path

run your command

rails server (or whatever)

I have no emotional attachment to brand names, don’t worry. All
hardware sucks, all software sucks, in the end.
