3. Installing SQLite3

First you will need to download two files from the Sqlite web site http://www.sqlite.org/download.html:

- http://www.sqlite.org/sqlite-3_6_23_1.zip
- http://www.sqlite.org/sqlitedll-3_6_23_1.zip

The first file is the Sqlite command line program used for modifing the Sqlite database. You may or may not use this.

The second file is the Windows DLL library file and Ruby uses this when Rails makes Sqlite database calls.

When both these ZIP files have been extracted you should have the following files:

• sqlite3.exe
• sqlite3.def
• sqlite3.dll

Copy these file to the bin directory of your Ruby installation

gem install sqlite3-ruby

4. create a project

rails test
cd test
ruby script/server

Now you test page running on http://127.0.0.1:3000
