I am very new to Ruby on Rails, but also very excited to get those
things started.
I downloaded and installed “BitNami RubyStack Stack 1.4-beta-1” which
includes all necessary tools for running RoR offline under OS X (10.5).
I tried to get it started before in some other different ways, but I
never got it, because I am very new to this.
Finally now I tried to start my rails app, but then something strange
happened.
In my web browser should http://localhost:3000 open my active rails
application, but there’s only following error message:
Status: 500 Internal Server Error Content-Type: text/html
Application error (Rails)
So I tried to start the rails app over the Terminal. I changed to my
railsapp-folder and entered: “ruby script/server” which should start
Mongrel for my railsapp.
But the Terminal showed me:
=> Booting Mongrel (use ‘script/server webrick’ to force WEBrick)
=> Rails 2.2.2 application starting on http://0.0.0.0:3000
=> Call with -d to detach
=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server
** Starting Mongrel listening at 0.0.0.0:3000

It says, that the localhost-address is already in use, but I have no
idea how I can reset it.
Can somebody help me with this problem?
