Hello,

(I apologize if this isn’t the right place to post this.)

I’m trying to get RadRails up and running on Eclipse 3.2 on Windows  
XP.

I followed the instructions at \<[Aptana.com | Axway](http://www.aptana.com/docs/index.php/)  
Integrating\_RadRails\_with\_Aptana\>  
and the installation seemed to go smoothly. However, when trying to  
follow directions for configuring it at  
\<[Aptana.com | Axway](http://www.aptana.com/docs/index.php/)  
Configuring\_your\_RadRails\_setup\>, I found that my Preferences dialog  
didn’t contain the Configuration page under the Rails node, nor did it  
contain the Ri/rdoc page, or show the rails icon in the title bar as  
image on the web page does.

Am I missing something here? Perhaps my installation didn’t proceed  
successfully?

I am grateful for any help you guys can provide!

Thanks,  
rg

Thanks Marcel.

I can now see the Ruby plugins and their associated information in the  
About Eclipse… dialog, so I think something worked correctly.  
However, I still can’t see any of the configuration panels shown in  
the documentation.

Any other explanations that you can think of?

Thanks,
