Is anybody can tell what i have to change in database.yml file how to resolve this problem? — Ashwini K, Jul 16 '13 at 08:58
nobody can tell you anything without you posting the server logs and the needed files.. there is no magician here to guess where your problem is. — rmagnum2002, Jul 16 '13 at 09:11
In databas.yml you have to define mysql user, password and databse name. Better you go through this link http://guides.rubyonrails.org/v2.3.11/ and then try to create application — Sonal S., Jul 17 '13 at 11:27

Get into the root directory:

cd ~/Directory

Then type the following in console to run the server script:

ruby script/server

Should then be supplied the following information:

[2015-12-15 10:41:52] INFO  WEBrick 1.3.1
[2015-12-15 10:41:52] INFO  ruby 1.8.7 (2013-06-27) [i386-mingw32]
[2015-12-15 10:41:52] INFO  WEBrick::HTTPServer#start: pid=4436 port=3000

You should then be available to access your local site:http://localhost:3000/

Yes, use ruby script/server from root directory of project. This is because you are using Rails version 2.X.X. If you use Rails 3.X.X then you can run rails s or rails server to run Webrick Service to run your application. After doing this, use http://localhost:3000 from your browser. You will get your application.

Then type the following in console to run the server script from inside your project:

 cd script 
 chmod u+x server

Then,

 exec script/server or ./script server
