I’ve done the 3 steps on page 1… rails new MySite
bundle install
$ rails server
Everything in the terminal window looks fine.
Yet, at http://localhost:8000 I only see the messages for “This site can’t be reached … localhost refused to connect.”
I’m expecting to see a default page, “Welcome aboard”.
If I search the directory where all the RoR directories are for the text " You’re riding Ruby on Rails!" that is not found.
I did go through apache2 setup, and I do see my “Hello World!” page I created, at http://localhost
I’m on a Mac.
What could I look into, next?
Shouldn’t RoR be displaying that default page, now, at localhost:8000?
Am I supposed to see something other that what is on the pic below when doing this lesson? If so, there are not instructions on how I need to fix it. Please help!
