doesn't work on windows

[rdp]

Currently on doze... installs ok then vegas.rb needed "localhost" instead of "0.0.0.0" then it resulted in a fork error. Not sure if these are gembox things or not. I might use your gembox code sometime for a separate site :) Also you might want to link to info on gem server. Cheers! =-

Hey rogerdpack - I just pushed an update that should fix the fork error. Could you install the latest vegas gem from github and let me know if that works? Thanks, --AQ

thanks for the update.

I did discover that running it in the foreground works in windows. Patch available http://github.com/rogerdpack/vegas/tree/master Cheers! -=r

I take that back--same error on *nix

rdp@li49-39:~/installs/mbari_gembox_187/bin$ ./gembox == Starting gembox == Trying to start gembox on Port 5678 Unable to launch. No Browser application found. Failure in opening http://0.0.0.0:5678 : Unable to find browser to launch for os family 'nix'.

as well as this error, even if I have webrick installed [I assume a sinatra error] /home/rdp/installs/mbari_gembox_187/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/sinatra-0.9.2/lib/sinatra/base.rb:930:in detect_rack_handler': Server handler (thin,mongrel,webrick) not found.

it does fork now in windows! sweet! For some reason it now starts itself twice...and only works on the second time, and pulls up a browser window with a search for the word "child"...

After installing gembox on windows, I'm getting this:

C:\ruby_dev>gembox

Am i missing any gems on my machine?
