I am trying to install a rack in Rails and it does not work. I recreated the simplest version of my problem. I am using Ruby 1.9.3p327 and Rails 3.2.11.
I started by creating a new rails application using rails new problem_example . By going to the problem_example directory, I can visit the rails application at http://localhost:3000 , and life is beautiful.
Following the instructions in Rack in Rails 3 Railscast , I added the following routes:
ProblemExample::Application.routes.draw do root :to => proc { |env| [200, {}, ["Oh yeah!"]] } end
I also deleted the index.html file from the public folder. If I go to http://localhost:3000 , I will see "Oh yes!" output on display.
Here is the hard part. If I change my routes to look like this:
class SimpleRackApplication def call(env) [200, {'Content-Type' => 'text/plain'}, ["Oh no!"]] end end ProblemExample::Application.routes.draw do root :to => SimpleRackApplication end
and I run rails s , I get this blank error:
=> Booting WEBrick => Rails 3.2.11 application starting in development on http://0.0.0.0:3000 => Call with -d to detach => Ctrl-C to shutdown server Exiting
