Hi, I installed Instant Rails and I am ready to get going... but I got this error and I am not sure what to do. Please
help me correct this problem. Thanks.

If you have installed skype it use 80 port which is used by apache
or mysql server. One skype go in setting -> Advance Setting->
Connection setting and uncheck the port used by skype that will
be 80.

Just found http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive/Comp/comp.lang
.ruby/2008-06/msg01565.html which says that if you uncheck
"Verify that the ports are available before starting
servers" (Click the "I" icon, then Configure ->
Instant Rails) then there's no more problem.

Guess the port checking on Vista is the bug! Tried without my
firewall on, but that didn't help, sadly.

I have the same problem (on 1.7 and 2.0), since I upgraded to
Vista. I've found that if I start Apache manually (by double-clicking
on <INSTANTRAILSDIR>/Apache/Apache.exe for example), from
then on start/restart works OK from Instant Rails (so long as
you leave the cmd box open, of course). No idea what the underlying
problem is.
