Java Errors with jRuby on Rails on Google App Engine

Question

I followed all of the instructions so far from: http://code.google.com/p/appengine-jruby/wiki/RunningRails and http://gist.github.com/268192

Currently, I'm just trying to get to hello world. I'm getting these errors when I just run the dev_appserver.rb

238:hello-world jwang392$ dev_appserver.rb .

The server is running at http://localhost:8080/ 

I'm at a loss at what step I may have missed. I checked my ruby version (1.8.7) and rails version (2.3.5), gem version (1.3.6) and google-appengine-0.0.10.1

ran:

sudo gem install google-appengine

curl -O http://appengine-jruby.googlecode.com/hg/demos/rails2/rails2_appengine.rb

ruby rails2_appengine.rb

sudo gem install rails_dm_datastore

sudo gem install activerecord-nulldb-adapter

put this in my config.ru file:

run lambda { |env| Rack::Response.new('Hello World!').finish }

and finally ran $ dev_appserver.rb .

Answer 1

Ok. I got some help over at the Google Group from John Woodell.

For Rails, you should follow the instructions on the gist For a hello world app do this...

$ appcfg.rb generate_app hello-world  
$dev_appserver.rb hello-world

I'm at a loss at what step I may have missed. I checked my ruby version (1.8.7) and rails version (2.3.5), gem version (1.3.6) and google-appengine-0.0.10.1 ran

sudo gem install google-appengine
curl -O http://appengine-jruby.googlecode.com/hg/demos/rails2/rails2_appengine.rb
ruby rails2_appengine.rb
sudo gem install rails_dm_datastore
sudo gem install activerecord-nulldb-adapter 

put this in my config.ru file:

run lambda { |env|Rack::Response.new('Hello World!').finish }  

and finally ran
$ dev_appserver.rb .

Ok. I followed everything and still ran into the problem. Figured out what's going on. I started creating project folders and ran into unix fun-problem-land of it not liking directories with spaces in the names. once I got rid of the spaces, everything ran fine. Boy, I feel real dumb right about now.
