Trying to start backburner server for Rails application and failed

Question

I've just created a new rails application using command:

rails blog

Now I'm following blog/README file. To get started, I'm trying to start backburner server as stated in the README file:

• Change directory into myapp and start the web server: script/server (run with --help for options)

Using the server command I started backburner server with default settings:

• Manager Port: 3234
• Server Port: 3233
• 255.255.255.0 as subnet mask, with Automatic Search checked

The backburner server window keep posting the following information:

INF Looking for a manager using 10.65.97.255:3234

And after a while:

WRN Manager is not responding

Seems the server never started because I cannot find a page in http://localhost:3000/ address. How to configure and start backburner server? I'm pretty new in Rails. Thanks in advanced.

The messages you've posted appear to relate to Autodesk Backburner and are not being output by Rails. Make sure you are running script/server from the blog directory and not just server.
