Need help

[mftaher]

This might be a stupid, but I'm unable to run the backend server in windows. I have configured with the new Rails version but it gives error when doing the db:migrate. I'm not a ruby programmer so need help to run the rails server for this application. Can anyone help?

What's the error that you're seeing? Could you post the error/backtrace you get when you try running rake db:migrate?

It's been quite a while since I ran this, and when I just tried I got a "uninitialized constant ActiveSupport::Dependencies::Mutex", which is apparently due to an issue with older Rails 2.3 versions and newer versions of RubyGems. I've updated the app to use the latest 2.3 branch Rails (2.3.11) which at least takes care of that problem.

this is the error I get when I run rake db:migrate

There are some substantial changes to Rails between 2.3 and 3.0, so the newer Rails version is almost certainly what's causing the problem. The quickest fix would probably be to install the older version of Rails that's needed (gem install rails -v=2.3.11) and make sure that the Rails version specified in config/environment.rb is 2.3.11.

I'll have to update this to Rails 3 at some point, which will also have the benefit of using the new dependency manager Bundler to make it easier to ensure you have the right RubyGems for the app.
