I am trying to install Ruby on Rails on my XP Home PC, following these instructions - When I get to step 2 under "Create a Rails App" to startup the WEBrick servlet, I get a permission denied error. I gave the Ruby interpreter full access to my firewall and it's still not working. Has anyone ever encountered this problem or know what might fix it? Thanks!

Ruby Install Problem

I also used that guide to install and it caused problems for me also, just not the ones you are having. In my firewall, the ruby interpreter has permission to access to the internet and also permission to act as a server.
I would recommend that you create a workspace folder in htdocs and then goto the workspace folder (via cmd) and create the project via 'rails name_of_project' then change 'cd name_of_project' and run the server via 'ruby script/generate'
I recommend installing eclispe ide with radrails plugin or radrails as a standalone. and read this guide on setting it up
