I'm a newb to RoR. I'm using the book "Agile Web Development with Rails" to get started on Windows 7.
In the command window, I run the following.
>rails demo
>cd demo
>ruby script/server
At this point, it boots the Mongrel server:
=> Booting Mongrel
=> Rails 2.3.5 application starting on http://0.0.0.0:3000
=> Call with -d to detach
=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server
The book goes on to tell me to run
ruby script/generate controller Say
but, I cannot Ctrl-C -- or type anything for that matter -- after booting the Mongrel server. Am I supposed to create the new controller in another instance of the InstantRails command window? Right now, the only way I can stop the server is closing the window in which I started the server!
Please let me know if you need any other details. tia.
